Q is for Quirky pieces...Everyone should have that one fashion quirk that just sets them apart...maybe it's a color pallette that is always present in their wardrobe, maybe it's cherry red lipstick worn everday, my sister has a thing for Hello Kitty (it's all kitty, all the time)...whatever your quirk is, embrace it...let it be your signature style that puts you on the map.
It could mean the difference of being referred to as "that person who always drinks iced coffee" (which makes you as memorable as your local Starbuck's cashier) or "that girl who totally rocks out those blouses and pencil skirts like a cast member of "Mad Men" (I mean, that just sounds so cool that I actually WANT to be her friend!)
For example, in high school I had this obsession with watches...I would collect them in a variety of colors and styles and wear not just one, but a bunch of them on my arm. It was my "thing", it completely set me apart and soon enough I was the "watch girl" and EVERYONE knew who I was. Eventually, people would come even let me borrow their watches throughout the day...and some people even ended up just giving me their watches at the end of the school year because they knew I liked them and collected them. It was my quirk ;)
Moral of the story...fashion should be a fun and quirky way of expressing yourself...I know that this is more advice than it is about a specific "Summer Must-Have", but I gotta say, confidence and individuality are the #1 ingredients when it comes to making any "must have" work!
