STREET STYLE VS. DECOR—Words That Inspire

As noted earlier, April is “Empowerment” month here at CollegeFashionista. As part of the celebration, we will be featuring content aimed at inspiring you to be your best self!

One trend that has been wildly popular for seasons now is graphic apparel. No, not that kind of graphic. We’re talking about T-shirts, beanies and even dresses with fun sayings and clever lines plastered on them.

While we love a good pun more than we probably should, the latest wave of graphic apparel seems to have a generally empowering tone. Take this Fashionista, for example. Her basic sweater is suddenly elevated—both in a fashion and spiritual sense—with its message of “Day Dreamer.” The powerful message is further enhanced by the rest of her ensemble. From her combat boots to her studded beanie, this Fashionista’s look screams confidence and chic—which is one of our favorite combos.

Take your favorite quote or words of empowerment and bringing them into your living space makes an equally powerful statement. Whether you opt for a full gallery wall or just one statement piece (see, I told you I like puns), there is no better way to be inspired in your living space than by surrounding yourself with positivity.

Here are some of our favorite ways to incorporate the graphic trend into your home:

1. Instead of saying no, ask yourself, “Well why not?”

2. A reminder to stay awesome.

3. Inspire yourself to get out there and explore.

4. These wanderlust globes are on the top of our list.

5. Love. Hope. Dream. (In bed)
