STYLE GURU STYLE: Exploring Your City

January 16th, 2017 at 2:00am

Nothing is better than exploring your own city. Growing up in Seattle, I’ve been to the Pike Place Market more times than I can count. However, every time I go downtown, I seem to find a new alleyway or street that I’ve never explored before. That’s one of the benefits of city life, living in large city like Seattle; the possibilities for adventure are endless. While exploring, comfort is key. You never know how long you’ll be on your feet or where you may end up. I’ve put together a foolproof winter outfit to keep you comfortable and stylish as you venture the downtown streets of your city.

As you can see, the outfit is simple: a black leather jacket, a black long-sleeve sweater, a blanket scarf, a comfy pair of jeans and comfortable sneakers. The leather jacket adds a bit of edge, making you seem put together in the urban environment. Add in the sweater and blanket scarf and you’ll be able to stay warm in those freezing winter temperatures. Jeans are a go to staple item for any outfit and by wearing you’re most comfortable pair, you’ll be feeling good no matter how long you’re out for. Last but not least, cute sneakers are a must for a long day of shopping. Save your soles the pain and slip on a comfy pair of sneakers. My favorite are my Superstar white and black Adidas.

Depending on your city’s weather, you may want to add on a thicker jacket or maybe choose a pair of jeans that are not distressed to save yourself from freezing. Next time you go out, think about comfort and practicality. Sure your new pumps are adorable but do you want to be walking around the city all day in them? Exploring is fun with the right outfit, so pick something casual and comfortable so whether it’s just a stroll around town to your favorite boutique or standing in that long line to get your morning coffee, you’ll be ready wherever your adventure takes you!
