STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Grunge-Chic

January 19th, 2016 at 2:00am

We all have those days where we roll out of bed and don’t feel like putting ourselves fully together. The next time this happens to you, leave the sweats in your closet and throw on the combination of a graphic T-shirt (or tank top) with a flannel. With both of these items being a staple in any Fashionista/o’s closet, this outfit will get you out to class in no time!

When choosing which graphic T-shirt and flannel to put together, the most important things to keep in mind are color and pattern. Choose the flannel first and then pull certain colors out of it that match a graphic T-shirt. I find this particular look to be trending right now simply because of its comfort and warmth.

To accessorize your look, throw on whatever you want! Because the outfit is relatively plain, you have a lot of freedom. Pile on the rings, bracelets and necklaces with the addition of a watch to polish off the look. Any pair of sunglasses would work as well. These Dr. Martens boots are perfect for nearly any climate—pair with a wool socks and any bottoms for the winter and a floral dress or skirt for the spring. They’re especially ideal for the cold Syracuse months, as their stylish waterproof design takes on the snow-covered sidewalks.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Even when you aren’t in the mood to get dressed up for class, stay comfortable and stylish in a flannel and graphic T-shirt for a grunge-chic look.”
