Why we love Hayley’s outfit: A white lace romper is about as cute as it gets, but Hayley dresses it up with a mid-length, navy blazer. Her chunky, orange necklace gives this neutral outfit the perfect pop of color. This ensemble is great for a casual night out.

Hayley’s adorable white lace Dolce Vita romper retails for $110. However, you can substitute it for this classic shift dress. The long sleeves give it a cute twist!

A blazer is the perfect piece to dress up any outfit. If you don’t have a nice black blazer, buy one. Trust me, it is worth investing in. This black BCBG blazer is a bit more expensive at $149, but you will get every penny out of it. Use it for a casual night out (like Hayley does), an interview, or pair it with a cocktail dress and you have a stylish outfit for formal. Don’t be afraid to try a colored blazer they are so hot right now!

A fashionista can never own enough jewelry. Investing in a few key pieces is worth the splurge. But for your random in one day, out the next jewelry there is no shame in going cheap! However, this one is a bit more pricey.
