ALL IN THE DETAILS: A Little Bit Graphic

One of the trends that I adore and that has managed to stick around for another season is the graphic sweatshirt trend. The graphic sweatshirt is like a subtle pop of personality in an outfit because it typically has a cheeky design displayed on the front. Especially during the winter months when the bitter temperatures make our mental color wheels turn to bleak shades of blacks and grays, a graphic sweatshirt also adds a pop of color into a winter ensemble. Because of its casual nature, you can easily wear it with anything. Sport it with a swinging midi skirt for a tomboy meets girly style, pair it with a pair of black leggings for a laid back look or dress it up with a pair of slim-cut pants and a button-down.

My street style stalker heart sang a little when I spotted this Fashionista’s graphic sweatshirt with its fabulously colorful embroidery of a wolf on the front. Her whole outfit was full of complementary details that made for a thoughtfully put together look. She layered the sweatshirt with a button-down, gray overcoat and a plaid scarf. To add a little casual flair to the ensemble, she chose a pair of skinny denim jeans and a delightful pair of plum New Balance trainers. My favorite part of the ensemble, besides the stylish sweatshirt, was the versatility of her satchel/backpack accessory. This is a look that you can don for any occasion on campus to incorporate a little spice in your winter looks.

How To: To incorporate the graphic sweatshirt into your winter looks, employ the technique of layering to add extra warmth. Complement the sweatshirt with quirky details like bright tennis shoes or a cool bag.
