STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Cropped Denim

March 7th, 2016 at 2:00am

Every morning when I wake up and try to get out of bed, I think to myself, what am I going to wear today? Most days, my outfit consists of leggings, a flowy top paired with a cardigan, vest or denim shirt. I try to keep my outfits comfortable but cute, similar to most college students. However, there are those days when I want to get rid of the leggings and put jeans on to try to look a little more put together, but still stay comfortable. That is what this Fashionista did with her ensemble by looking cute, but also comfortable.

The item of clothing that immediately caught my eye was her cropped denim paired with light gray booties. I think the reason why her cropped denim caught my eye was because of the weather. When I found this Fashionista, the temperature was almost 60 degrees, which in Illinois is a beautiful day considering how unpredictable the temperature can be. Cropped denim is such a great trend for warm weather because you don’t have to worry about cuffing your denim at the hem. The cropped look gives off a spring vibe and can be paired with so many great shoes from booties to sandals or sneakers. Her salmon colored top and the green purse add a fun pop of color to the outfit by giving contrast. Lastly, this Fashionista added a subtle detail to her ensemble, her gold choker, that finishes the outfit nicely.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “It’s always fun to add small details to an outfit that will make my look stand out. To accomplish this, I went with my cropped jeans and a green colored purse.”
