Suggestions for a friend.
 
I think high waists and low necks would look good on your body type.
 
Try a colorful high waist mini skirt with a racer back tank top. The skirt can be an a-line skirt or a pencil skirt. If it's a pencil skirt, you can use it doubly for work.
 
Colorful skirts are more interesting than colorful tops - it's more risky and harder to pull off.
 
For a tight fitting tank top, you can tuck it into the skirt.
For a looser, longer tank top, you can loosely tuck it in or let it hang over the skirt.
 
Mix and match silhouettes and colors.

Suggestions for a friend.
 
Get a girly ruffle top, pair it with a long cardigan, add bangles and wear khakis or cargo pants. Wear with flats or ankle booties

Giving styling ideas to a friend.
 
Use the large image as the inspiration to an outfit - try a printed blouse with a blazer, belted shorts and leggings.
 
These are all brands/stores I've bought from before, and are all under $100

My second set - and my first set in a long time! I made this Instead of doing something productive :)
 
Now back to work.

You know I Would Wear This, y'know.
