STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: The Urban Prep

It’s no secret I am obsessed with mixing and matching different styles and trends to fit me. Fashion has evolved significantly throughout the years. It is no longer just something that is meant to help you fit into society, but it is something that it is tailored to suit you and your personal style. Mixing and matching different trends has become more and more popular throughout the years, and it really allows you to create a look like no other. How will you mix things up? When I think of this trend, I think of Fashionistos and Fashionistas like Pharrell, Ryan Reynolds and Gwen Stefani. These celebrities are pros at mixing and matching classic styles with more urban pieces, and don’t mind taking a few fashion risks. With new trends surfacing constantly in the fashion world, this possibilities are endless.

So how does one find their perfect fashion blend ? This Fashionisto shows us just how it’s done! He’s wearing a traditional blue Lacoste button-down. He adds an urban feel with dark wash skinny jeans that are folded at the bottom. He accessorizes with a dark blue tie with red and white detailing, a black beaded bracelet and his Ray-Ban glasses; they all come together to give this ensemble a sleeker look. This Fashionisto finishes off the look with a pair of blue and white Air Jordan Spizike sneakers that give the outfit a final urban kick.

This Fashionisto is ready to hit the scene and mix things up!
