STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Mixing Different Trends

April 20th, 2015 at 2:00am

Everyone has their own personal style, and everyone has their own classic piece that they always wear. Sometimes, though, it is better to put together different trends and styles in one ensemble to show off a completely different and multidimensional look.

I caught this Fashionista right as she was about to enter the library. I loved what she was wearing, but when I got closer, I could tell that she definitely was a girl who took chances with her style. She said she had a presentation that day so she wore a simple black blouse, but paired it with coral capris so that she wasn’t in head to toe black. To add texture to the outfit, she slipped on some black leather python flats. Then, she carried a large black tote to keep everything she needed for the day, including her presentation materials, organized.

The most interesting part of her outfit, however, was on her wrists and fingers. She told me she usually has more of a grunge style, but obviously could not dress that way for her presentation. She still wanted to throw in some of what she usually wears into what she was wearing that day. So, she put on her favorite silver charm bracelets and wore multiple rings on her fingers. I loved how she paired her favorite accessories with the outfit because it shows that one is definitely able to mix different trends together and still create a balanced ensemble.
