STYLE GURU STYLE: Holy Chic

June 8th, 2016 at 2:00am

I’m a sucker for grunge style adapted into everyday, wearable ensembles. Give me some leather, worn-in combat boots and punk-rock jewelry and I’m all set.

Taking inspiration from the Diesel Black Gold resort 2017 collection, I’ve incorporated similar elements into my outfit. While I know that my style is more edgy than most, the details I’ve chosen to wear can be rocked by anyone! The Diesel line is simple, yet tasteful and I wanted to adapt that to my outfit.

Adding a chambray shirt under a shift dress really dresses down the outfit, making it wearable for most occasions. The contrast of the dark colored material against a lighter colored shirt brings attention to the dress without overplaying it. Plus, picking dark colored boots brings the ensemble together.

Now, I naturally lean more towards the darker end of the color spectrum. Blacks, dark purples and deep greens are my go-to colors. This outfit can be styled according to particular liking, which makes it a completely versatile ensemble.

Button-down shirts and uncomplicated dresses will never go out of style. Mainly, because they can be stylized any way you want. Staple pieces such as these are always available to be reinvented. I tried to make them look unique by including an edgy-looking belt and buckled combat boots.

These pieces combined create an awesome and chic yet standout look!

Get My Look: 1. Any button-down shirt. 2. Plain colored shift dress. 3. Combat boots.
