STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Keep it Cool & Casual

When choosing what to wear, comfort should always be an important aspect. Unfortunately, a lot of times people assume that looking cute means sacrificing some comfort. But whether you’re going to class or just hanging out with friends, you should always be comfy!

This look is all comfort, without the lack of any style. The shirt shown is an old T-shirt gone DIY. By cropping and cutting up this old shirt, it gives it a whole new vibe! Cut up shirts are extremely trendy right now—get the look without spending any money! Just cut off the bottom of the shirt to crop it, and slice it up in random areas. Next up: the shorts. The shorts shown are simple and stretchy tie-waste shorts from Forever 21. They are coated with a shiny layer that makes them a little more fun than just your average black shorts. The shoes add the perfect pop of color in this otherwise black and gray outfit. They have a platform and little spikes that give them a fun, punk look. To accessorize, this Fashionista wore a simple black watch and her super trendy glasses.

This look can also work in cooler weather if you throw on a cool jacket! Throwing on a faux leather jacket or even a denim jacket is the perfect addition to this look. Another way to add to this look would be with a statement piece, such as a big necklace or bracelet. Whatever your style preference is, just remember that you never have to sacrifice style for comfort!
