STYLE GURU STYLE: Seamlessly Seasonless

July 10th, 2015 at 2:10am

Something I really enjoy about fashion is when resort collections are displayed, because they’re always more laid-back than spring and fall collections. They also tend to reflect a more personal appearance of the designer. Another thing I love about fashion is how one collection can be casual and another extremely formal. On a personal level, I love a more relaxed vibe that can be perfect for any season. 6397’s resort 2015 has just that vibe.

As I’m spending my time here in New York City, I am appreciative of the casual attire and the option to be able to wear sneakers. Comfortable shoes are a must, so whenever I have the opportunity to opt for a pair of sneakers, I do! When going through different designer’s collections, 6397 always catches my eye since it is always so laid-back and somewhat androgynous. However, the main reason I always tend to check out their work is because no matter what, they always use Vans as their shoe of choice to accompany their pieces. If you know me by now, you know my obsession with Vans sneakers. The lifestyle, authenticity, involvement with multiple sports and music festivals, and of course the look, is just a few reasons why I love this brand. I even dream to eventually work for them.

Inspired by an oversized dress, I decided to go for the casual chic this resort line offers. A minimalistic and monochromatic outfit, it tends to fit any relaxed occasion. Obviously I centered this look on a pair of slip-on checkered Vans. It’s funny because fashion history repeats itself; I owned a pair of these famous shoes when I was a preteen, but knew I was dying for that nostalgia and bought a new pair last summer. Keeping the use of dark colors, I went through my closet and decided to put this outfit together with my extremely comfortable T-shirt dress from H&M. This dress is magic! I can wear it with wedges, pointed toe flats and sneakers, giving it a different vibe each time.

It’s always important to have your outfit make you feel confident and comfortable. This simple look goes a long way and I can’t help but feel like the coolest girl on the block when I step out in this outfit. That is more than enough of a reason to keep coming back for more to see what 6397 will be up to next.
