Tunic Top Proves Fashionable To A Tee

Candy Barrie Sisters Syndicate

Beaded tops are still the rage this summer and why not? Adding sequins, gemstones or grommets dresses up comfortable, casual clothes.

You can pay more for someone else’s design or save money and enjoy creating your own tee with the Dress For Less outfit I’m featuring this week.

This tunic top by Cathy O is made from a heavier weight cotton that wears longer and hangs better. It comes with its own Bedazzler kit with everything you need to create your own version of the Carole Little designer original.

The tee and matching leggings come in black or white in sizes 1x, 2x or 3x. You’ll be hard pressed to beat this deal.

Matching pull-on pants, $48
