STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: This Jacket's the Bomb

September 26th, 2016 at 2:00am

One of the biggest trends this season has been the bomber jacket. They have evolved from the classic varsity style, to containing an array of varying colors, patterns and embellishments. They can make a bold statement or add a subtle touch to complete any outfit. When it comes to styling your bomber jacket, I prefer to let the jacket itself to be the center of attention.

This lovely Fashionista is sporting a mostly black bomber with patterned panels in the front—making a statement without being too flashy. A basic black top that is fitted to your body keeps you from being swallowed by the fabric and draws more attention to the jacket itself. For bottoms, a well fitted pair of jeans can never go wrong. These jeans also are in a similar wash to one of the blue hues in the pattern on the bomber, helping to streamline the look and make the overall outfit cohesive. She rolled up her jeans and wore some high-tops for added comfort around campus, without compromising style.

For accessories, keep things simple by adding some mirrored sunglasses, a black tote bag for all your necessities and of course, coffee! Not only do most of us already have these simple pieces in our wardrobes already, but it is extremely easy to put together. This is perfect for every Fashionista on a budget since it allows you to utilize many pieces you already own.

Follow these tips and you will be able to make a statement with your bomber of choice while remaining comfortable and casual for class, walking around town or any fall activity this year!
