ALL IN THE DETAILS: Simple is Better

April 14th, 2017 at 2:00am

Subtle details can easily make an outfit. Embroidery, distressing, and studded accents are all having a major moment right now as far as trends go. All of these forms of details are perfect to throw into an everyday outfit or to dress up a look. Mixing these trends or picking a favorite and embracing it is what fashion is all about.

This Fashionista loves taking simple pieces and pairing them with items with a little more detailing. The strappy bralette and distressed denim add an interesting focal point to the outfit without overpowering the rest of the look. Her outfit is also dressed up with the sleek black booties and oversize cardigan. The layering in her outfit of the sweater over a basic white tank and the cool bralette really make the outfit.

Creating an outfit like this is effortless, especially for this time of year. Layers for walking around campus and a day of classes is just practical. Make it easy for yourself by keeping all of your detailed items together in your closet so that you can grab one and pair it with your go-to basics.

There is a fine line between tasteful details in an outfit and going overboard. Adding detailed pieces to any outfit doesn’t have to mean piling on jewelry and putting as many patches as you can on your jeans—unless, of course, that’s your style. Stick to your comfort zone when it comes to details. A little extra lace peeking out of your T-shirt or studded shoes could be just what a look calls for.
