STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Maximize Yourself

February 27th, 2015 at 2:00am

It is no secret that high-waisted skirts are back, but how can you make sure you wear them to flatter your body in the best way? That’s easy—you wear the trend with a rockin’ pair of heels and a lot of confidence. This Fashionista does just that.

This Fashionista decided to take full advantage of the beautiful, warm day that South Carolina had this past weekend by pairing a high-waisted skirt with an edgy crop top, black tights and a pair of heeled boots. While ballet flats will always be a go-to for comfort, high-waisted pieces were designed to be worn with only footwear that adds height. I feel that heels must be worn to get the full effect to completely maximize yourself and your outfit.

I couldn’t help but gawk at this Fashionista’s perfectly edgy, chic haircut. Her crop top added detail to the outfit with its triangle cutouts and bright color combination. She paired the ensemble with a lightweight sweater, which is a great way to keep warm when the breeze is a little cool. By adding bangles and a sassy nail color she perfectly topped off this already mod look.

Incorporating the decade of the ‘90s is easier now than ever due to the help of clothing retailers and their grasp on modern trends. All you really need to do to boost your outfit is to boost your confidence. Wearing high-waisted skirts can be tough but when you are bold and fearless with your style, nothing can bring you down.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “When you maximize your confidence and your waist, you maximize yourself. Be bold, daring and swanky.”
