ALL IN THE DETAILS: Tailored and Tasseled

I find myself constantly inspired by the trends I see on campus and implementing those style tips in my own wardrobe. Today, I spotted another Fashionista walking by in the Student Union rocking my absolute favorite trend of the moment, tassels. Although an unusual trend, tassels have made their way to all of our Instagram feeds and they’re not going anywhere.

It’s clear that this Fashionista is well-versed in the best way to style tassels. Not only does she rock the tassels on the hem of her jeans, she paired it with a button-down that had its own tassel trim. Go big, or go home, right? Her unique outfit of choice, made a fashion-forward stance. Although a fairly simple outfit, it doesn’t go unnoticed. There are so many cool details within the outfit. Tassels, pin-stripes, grey leather and gold jewelry are just some of them.

Although the tassel-action has you looking twice, her backpack doesn’t fail to make you wonder where she got it from. Her grey, faux-leather backpack is clean-cut and chic. It pairs perfectly with her grey scarf and white sneakers. Her tailored look is cool and comfortable for a day full of classes. I love how cohesive her outfit looks. It’s almost as if the pieces were made to be worn together. The best part? You can separate each piece and wear them on their own!

This Fashionista shows you how to style a trend you might be hesitant about. This goes to show that there is no style risk that isn’t worth taking. If you’re looking for an alternative to tassels, try fraying the hems of your jeans!
