STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: (Pine)apple Of My Eye

May 5th, 2016 at 2:00am

Graphic T-shirts have been in the public eye for a few seasons now and don’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon. Sayings like “Namaste in bed” or simplistic and cute graphics are receiving an overwhelmingly positive reaction and T-shirts are flying off the shelves. One graphic T-shirt I have seen in particular is the uprising of a great pineapple print. Who would have known such a delicious fruit could double as a fashion statement? I sure didn’t, but I have to say, I am 100 percent on board with supporting tropical fruits in my wardrobe—they deserve some quality recognition.

This Fashionista took the pineapple graphic T-shirt trend for a spin and discovered this gem of a cardigan. Why not spread the graphic love to all pieces in your closet? I love what this Fashionista has paired together. Her outfit consists of mostly solids, in both light and dark washes, to create a balanced look. She uses colors that bring out her eyes and then she tops off her outfit with a fun graphic sweater. It gives her outfit extra individuality, in addition to the long socks she likes to roll down for a little pop of color. This sweater is perfect for the springtime; it manages to keep the look light, but can also dress the look up. Layers are your best friends in Oregon and this Fashionista knows it and wears it well.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Dress in lighter layers so if the day ends up not being as cloudy as it started out, you can shed a layer or two and still look dressed for the weather.”
