WHAT TO WEAR: Girls’ Date

I love my job at Madewell for two reasons: amazing denim readily available (quick side note: I’ve been suggesting everyone buys this pair of 10″ high-rise jeans for the past two months), and for connecting me with the most supportive group of friends. My gal pals and I try to go out at least once a month—whether it be to brunch or a movie. Although this day is filled with laughs and gossip, it’s also one of the best places to showcase our styles. With my friends in mind, I caught this Fashionista in downtown Providence, and immediately thought how perfect her outfit would be for one of these girls’ dates.

Personally, I loved this Fashionista’s T-shirt dress as the focal point of her outfit. A T-shirt dress is the perfect go-to in the spring or summer since they are lightweight and comfortable. Our girls’ dates can go on for hours sometimes, so it’s best to wear something easy.

Another reason I love T-shirt dresses is because they can easily reflect any personal style. For instance, this Fashionista wore high top Vans and her favorite vintage jewelry to reflect her self-proclaimed “tomboy aesthetic.” As I said, T-shirt dresses can be styled in an infinite number of ways. One of my best friends loves to pair her T-shirt dress with kitten heels and a bandana on her neck to reflect her more girly style.

The accessories that this Fashionista uses are subtle, yet I’m still obsessing. Not only are they super cute (talking about you River and Thread bracelets), but they’re also super practical. Her crossbody bag is the ultimate girls’ date accessory, since these dates often turn into spontaneous hour-long adventures. It’s adorable and can hold anything this Fashionista might need (i.e. tissues, in case someone gets a little emotional).

Although girls’ dates are fun and important, let this Fashionista remind you the real reason for girls’ dates—an excuse to showcase your best look.
