STYLE GURU STYLE: Feeling 22

January 12th, 2017 at 2:00am

Today is the best day for me to sing “22” by Taylor Swift out loud. The vibes from the song explain the similar levels of excitement I had on New Year’s day. There is nothing more exciting than expressing your fashion sense on New Year’s, but not only do I get to enjoy the New Year’s celebrations, I also get to celebrate my birthday as well.

For my birthday looks, I usually come up with a special style that I haven’t tried before. I thought wearing a bodycon dress would be a great idea, since one of my newest obsessions is with bodycon material. I feel casual and sexy in bodycon pieces. After trying on a few outfits, I knew that this was the exact kind of look I wanted to express myself and personal style in for my birthday.

Whenever I wear tight dresses, I make sure to add something extra to make them fit my body type. It could either be an accessory or a piece of extra clothing. I usually tie up a long-sleeve shirt on my waist to make my whole outfit look a bit more fun and metropolitan. I added a faux fur scarf to this look to make it a bit more classy. This outfit helped me express my happy mood. Being influenced by the most recent velvet and thigh-high trends, I thought a combination of these two would be perfect.

With this look I wore a black bodycon, velvet dress with some black lace-up, thigh-high boots. I finished up the look with a style that I’m more familiar with, I added a burgundy, faux fur scarf and a gold necklace.

This outfit helped me express a more trendy, fun look, and I loved it!
