ALL IN THE DETAILS: It's the Simple Things

July 8th, 2015 at 2:00am

It is almost halfway through summer break and for those cloudy and rainy days, it is all about dressing for the weather. Do you ever experience that summer day that isn’t hot enough for shorts, but not cold enough to wear a jacket? On these days, it is the perfect opportunity to throw on a top with a pair of skinny jeans.

This Fashionista perfectly pairs her top and skinny jeans with little hints of detail. Her gold necklace, watch, sandals and nails make this look stand out. With her rust orange top, she uses a pale pink nail color. Her nail polish doesn’t take away from her bold top, but instead balances both colors when put together.

She matches her rust orange top with a simple gold necklace, which also balance out the darker tones of her top. Make this outfit fun by finding a gold necklace with a pendant or cursive script.

Another simple detail that I love is her brown leather watch. Watches have a tendency to get too clunky on the wrist, taking away from the outfit. However, when the watch is more dainty and simple, it adds to the outfit and doesn’t take away attention from the Fashionista.

What is even more fabulous about this Fashionista is that she matches the color of the leather from her watch to her sandal leather. Attention to detail like this enhances the outfit.

How To: First, focus your look on the top because this is the statement piece. Then, consider simple details to add to the look and not take away from it. Try adding a necklace, then a watch or bracelet. Stop as soon as the accessories get to be too clunky and pair with dark wash skinny jeans to complete the look.
