STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Boyfriend Plaid

All hail, Queen Bey! This Fashionista’s style gave me déjà vu when I first approached her. If you have not been up to date on what Beyonce’s street style looks like, this overall look gives you a quick preview. This t-shirt dress provides you with a mix of punk and chic but is an easy piece to throw on if running late to an appointment or if being comfortable is what you are aiming for. Now, you may say, “ Well, where can I go buy this same dress?” Leave it to me to say you will not be able to guess where.

T-shirt dresses have been the latest trend for this summer and can be found at inexpensive stores such as H&M and Forever 21. When asked where she found the dress, she instantly smirks and admits, “ My guy friend’s closet.” Oversized pieces are finally starting to make a come back into the fashion world so start saying goodbye to buying sundresses for the summer and say hello to more money to save for summer vacations with your best friends.

When wearing a plaid piece, you do not want to overdo the look. This Fashionista simply just added a pair of brown gladiators to keep the focus on the main piece. To finish off the look, she wore a plain black cross-body purse over her shoulder and a pair of gold hoop earrings and a watch. Whether you’re shopping at a thrift store or Sak’s Fifth Avenue, embracing your inner Beyoncé does not need to be defined by a price.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? If you want to be creative and pay half the price, I suggest going to Goodwill and shopping in the men’s section. Not only does it help you save money, but gives you the opportunity to make the piece your own.
