We always keep our chill girls in mind. Not everyone wants to wear heels with their dresses and that's okay, this one's for you.

This outfit is for those days when you are headed to class or an on-campus event and you really don't want to put forth too much effort. Just tie a jean shirt around your waist, add accessories and head on out! The silver shoes and watch are the dash of sparkle every girl needs.

Lace-Up T-Shirt Dress Outfit 2:

Bohemian styled T-shirt Dress: Black lace-up tee shirt dress, quirky friendship bracelet, red chunky heel lace up sandals, aviator sunglasses

Products: Dress - Forever 21, Heels - GoJane, Glasses - Charlotte Russe, Bracelet - Aldo

If you're not sure what to wear to that outdoor concert or that daytime party you were invited to, here's some wardrobe inspiration.

The lace-up shoes have a chunky heel, making standing for long periods of time a breeze. The bracelet adds on a boho vibe with the detailing and the glasses block the sun and are still super cute!

Dressed Up T-Shirt Dress: How to style a lace-up tee shirt dress for a night out with cage sandals, dark lipstick, stud earrings and an oversized jean jacket

Products: Dress - Forever 21, Heels - Just Fab, Lip Gloss - Target, Jean Jacket - H&M, Earrings - Walmart

Sometimes summer temps are just too high to go out during the day. This style can be worn to your after 9 (PM) plans.

The all black look gives a mysterious edge to your night adventures. The triangle earrings are different and they stand out on the all-black base. The burgundy lip gloss stays with the dark theme and doesn't pop too much since it is matte.

Finally, the oversized blue-jean jacket is optional but it does not take away from the outfit in case where you're headed is a little chilly.
