OUTFIT: Casual neon chic

Summer has really arrived around here.  What about where you are?  How do you adjust to the new, non-layering-friendly reality?  Color can help a simple outfit have style.  Try a bright tee, pencil skirt and trendy metallic gladiator style flat sandal.  

You could always add a statement necklace, but chandelier earrings are a heat-friendly alternative (at least for those of us who get hot with a giant necklace/noose around their neck in warm weather).  Bonus: bold earrings really pop with an updo or ponytail hairstyle, too.
