FASHION FROM ABROAD: Cool and Casual

April 18th, 2017 at 2:00am

This past semester has been totally crazy with school, so last weekend I was stoked to take a surprise weekend trip to Copenhagen! I loved everything about this city, from the architecture to the food and the local fashion. It was still pretty cold, so the locals were bundled up but still managed to look chic and effortless.

While wandering a tiny street in search of a place to grab lunch, this local Fashionisto’s look caught my eye. It was a sunny day but definitely still cold and windy, and he was perfectly dressed for the weather without looking bulky or underdressed. He simply styled a cashmere sweater under a light, bomber jacket and kept the look casual with black skinny jeans and Converse sneakers. He topped it off with some aviator sunglasses and a vintage watch.

This ensemble is perfect for a day of exploring a new city, heading to class, or simply going about your daily errands. Comfortable shapes, clean lines, and an air of effortlessness make this look work for just about anything you want it to. I loved that this outfit could easily be for women, too. Try dressing it up with a blazer and some oxfords for a business lunch or a night out or can tone this look down as well with some trainers or flats for a day at the park or just lounging at home. The colors are easy to play with too, so pick any palette you like and go for it!
