It’s the little details that can really make a statement when it comes to putting together an outfit. This Fashionisto is no stranger to accessorizing due to his job as a stylist at Club Monaco, a high-end casual clothing retailer in the Prudential shopping center. What I love about his look is how he was able to wear simple black pants and a white mesh T-shirt, yet he managed to add fun accessories that make him look front row ready for a fashion show.
From head to toe, this Fashionisto doesn’t miss a beat. Some people throw on tons of accessories to look fashionable, but they end up looking like a bit of a mess, but that is not the case here. Many people have started accessorizing with backpacks, and this one keeps it fun and casual. The tan suede keeps it simple and classy and the leather straps add an edge. Why not make carrying your textbooks a fashion statement?
His hat is perfect for the sunny days of fall that lie ahead of us. This hat helps tie the whole outfit together. While most of us may not be daring enough to pull off this effortless yet chic accessory, it’s an easy way to dress up an outfit without looking too fancy.
When it comes to wearing a jacket, there are actually many more ways to wear one than you would think, and this Fashionisto exemplifies two of them. If you’re walking around outside and get too hot, you can throw it around your waist, instantly adding some character to the outfit. If you’re feeling more ambitious, you can throw it over your shoulders for a casual yet stylish look. The maroon color of this jacket is perfect for this outfit. It adds a pop of color without being obnoxious and complements that tan backpack—two colors that are great for fall.
The last three little accessories in this outfit—the sunglasses, bracelets and shoes—are very minimalistic, yet they are important factors to this look. Many guys choose to wear the same sneakers they wear every day, but he chose more sophisticated footwear that gives the outfit a mod, polished feel. The sunglasses let us know that we are not to mess with this hip and trendy Fashionisto. They are a more edgy, hipster version of the classic Ray-Ban wayfarers that we are all used to. The bracelets are a simple, cohesive addition that catch the eye.
