STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Simply Chic

Style Advice of the Week

So, you’ve been having a busy summer week, and one morning you’re stumped as to what to wear. You want to look fashionable, but you do not have time to create one of your signature looks. What do you do? The answer is simple— dress with simplicity.

This look is known to be very popular amongst celebrities due to their busy lives. Victoria Secret models Miranda Kerr and Alessandra Ambrosio effortlessly master looking simple and chic when out and about.

The Fashionista highlighted is the perfect inspiration for donning this style! She wore a silk-cotton white blouse and light blue wash denim shorts. Besides a great combination, these colors are great for reflecting sunlight. I’m completely obsessed with her braided Vera Wang necklace. Adding more glamour, she slipped on some grey ballet shoes featuring yellow cap toes. I love that her casual outfit was simply embellished by oversized sunnies, ornate necklace, and trendy shoes.

In this style of minimalism, you can still achieve an individual look by selecting the right clothes and accessories that show off your personality and style. Furthermore, you will appreciate the lesser amount of clothes when temperatures rise even more. Here’s my suggestion: start with a basic combo like floral print shorts and a solid blouse, or skinny jeans and a sheer sleeveless top. Then adorn your ensemble with a couple of your favorite jewelry pieces and a pair of ornate flats or heels. Wear a big tote for sophistication. See? Easy and chic.

As college students, it’s nice to get a break when we can. Sometimes, you have to think “less is more.”
