STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: An “Overall” Chic Look

As the years go by, it has become clear that fashion trends do not last forever. However, even once a trend has run its course, it never completely disappears. After awhile, styles from the past find ways to be incorporated into modern day fashions (like platform sandals, for example). Out of all the trends of the past the one many people never expected to make a comeback are (the answer might surprise you): overalls. Although overalls are more commonly seen on children, they have made quite the impression in women’s fashion in recent years.

This Fashionista has paired her denim overalls with a striped crop top. This pairing gives her final look a slight edge, making it acceptable for school, but still appropriate for a night out on the town. Overalls can be a tricky trend to style because when worn incorrectly they can end up making any Fashionista/o look childish and unbefitting.

Overalls, while somewhat simple in their design, can still make great statement pieces. Therefore, it is important not to draw too much attention away from them by wearing too many distracting items. This Fashionista has kept her accessories simple and went with a neutral print for her top. Although they are black and white, the stripes on her crop top offer a certain flair that a solid color would not have been able to do and her sandals add a nice feminine spin to this otherwise edgy look.

In the end, versatility is key when it comes to overalls as you can dress them up or you can dress them down. Overall, they make for an incredible twist on a former favorite!

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I feel super confident whenever I wear overalls as I feel edgy, but super girly at the same time whenever I wear them. I think every girl should have a pair of overalls.”
