STYLE GURU STYLE: Fall Uniform

November 4th, 2016 at 2:00am

It’s getting to that point in the semester, Fashionistas. Midterms are in full swing, group projects are being assigned left and right, and my life is a mess. Sadly, this crazy time of year at school makes it hard to wake up early in the morning and choose to make myself look good rather than get an extra 20 minutes of sleep. Nevertheless, I just can’t get myself to wear pajamas out of the house. So, I have come up with a solution—a “uniform”.

I think that in a way, everyone has a uniform. Everybody has a favorite jacket, a favorite pair of shoes and a favorite pair of jeans. I know that I love a good leather jacket and a pair of either Acne or Mother jeans. I simply use this information as a guide for my clouded head on fall mornings. It gives me ease to know that I can wake up and have a few good pieces always ready to wear.

This day was a particularly rough morning for me.—the perfect morning to wear my “uniform!” For this outfit, I chose to wear my high-waisted skinny jeans by Acne. I paired them with a comfy striped long sleeve from Brandy Melville. To add a bit more of a fashion piece, I went with this amazing embroidered leather jacket by Blank NYC. Finishing the outfit off, I wore some biker boots from Zara that are some of my favorite boots for fall, and I got them for $20!

I know it’s hard to get up and get dressed when your bed is so cozy, and you have so many responsibilities to face, but you can do it Fashionistas! Make your life a little easier, and make yourself feel a little less stressed by identifying those pieces in your wardrobe that will never let you down.
