STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Crazy For Camo

October 26th, 2015 at 2:00am

“This one time I saw Regina George wearing army pants and flip flops, so I wore army pants and flip flops.” Who said camo can’t be cute? In my opinion, this Fashionista rocks camo better than Regina ever could, and I would definitely want to recreate this outfit. With fall finally upon us (pauses to sip pumpkin spice latte), it’s all about layering. This is the time of year where getting dressed can become a challenge because the temperature can fluctuate a good fifteen degrees in a few hours. Thankfully, this Fashionista is fully aware of this, so she slipped on a playful jacket to show us all how to nail the use of camo.

This trend can be a little bit daunting because you don’t want to over-do the camo. It really is no different than wearing any other bold print; it must be done tastefully. This Fashionista shows us how we shouldn’t be afraid of camo because, when worn correctly, it can be really cute. When wearing camo, it should be paired with a fairly simple outfit. This Fashionista chose to wear it with a black romper and booties, dressing down the outfit. Wearing a camo jacket, however, is definitely not the only way to incorporate camo into your outfit.

Camo accessories are a big hit this year; Valentino is notorious for their camo purses and shoes. If you choose to incorporate camo into your outfit with accessories, the same rules apply; when the outfit is simple, the camo is able to stand out and be the focus point of the whole ensemble. By pairing multiple prints and colors together, the outfit will look too distracting.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I think that prints are an important part of every person’s wardrobe. They are an easy way to incorporate detail and color without going too overboard and are a fun way to show your personality!”
