We see these girls in the magazines and on the runway and we are constantly comparing ourselves to them. How can we look more like these A-listers in the spotlight? Well, first of all, there are two pretty big differences that separate us from them. For one, these celebrities have a personal stylist; they have a team of specialists whose sole purpose is to make them look flawless. Secondly, they have a no boundaries budget.
If you’re like me then you are lacking in these two departments. Even though we don’t have a makeup artist and a personal shopper, there is nothing stopping us from looking just as fabulous.
This Fashionista looks like she just stepped out of a magazine ad while in reality she has does a fantastic job getting the designer look for less. She is wearing a great pair of boyfriend jeans that contrast well with her sleek black tank top and statement necklace.
Boyfriend jeans are wonderful because they are loose fitting (hello wiggle room!) and they are totally in style. They are trendy because they are not your basic skinny jeans and they add a little edge to your outfit. These jeans also come in handy when trying to showcase your booties because the rolled up cuffs give the shoes room to shine. So try something different and step out of your comfort zone and into these comfy pants.
This Fashionista also teaches us that your statement necklace doesn’t have affect your bank statement. Her bold metallic statement necklace dresses up the ensemble and gives it a finishing touch and adds a little flare. You would never guess that she got it from Forever 21! More accessories she added to the outfit are an adorable fringe purse and a wrap-around gold bracelet.
So even though you might be a “struggling college student” there are always ways to avoid skimping on style.
What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I love getting the look for less, whether it’s a blogger’s post or something on the runway, I make it my mission to find similar styles for a lot less money. Boyfriend jeans became a huge trend recently and I got mine from Cotton On for a very reasonable price. I love them because they are comfortable and cute!”
