STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: All My Love For Plaid Blankets

June 2nd, 2015 at 2:10am

When winter rolls in, everything you don’t need is to leave your house in an unfashionable outfit. But living in São Paulo warns you that you can experience all four seasons in one day, especially in the winter. What does this mean? That you need to find an outfit that can keep you warm if it gets too cold or cool if it gets hotter during the day. This week, I spotted a Fashionista who clearly knows how to deal with this particularity from our city, taking the most fashionable trends and translating it into her own style.

The key item is the plaid poncho that makes all the difference in her look. Why wear a simple jacket when you can be awesome (and get all the attention) with this unique poncho? The best part is that this blanket coat gets even better when mixed with this simple plaid graphic shirt and the ripped black jeans. The Karl Lagerfeld rubber biker rain boots (which are a must-have for all seasons and do not look like a rain boot), the accessories and the natural beauty make this look so fresh and desirable, especially for girls who work and study at the same time.

For girls who want to try this poncho trend but aren’t really confident yet, I have two pieces of advice that should be kept in mind: it’s better when you balance the look, so try to pair your poncho with skinny jeans (ripped jeans are great!) or any tight fitting pant. If the idea is to stand out, go for a trendy print or colored one (a plaid poncho is easy to wear and never goes out of style).

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Never be scared of trying something for the first time. Boosting your self confidence is the best style advice someone can give you. The most important thing is to finish your look feeling and looking great, even if you decide to take an accessory that is not good for the look or adding other that wasn’t planned from the start.”
