STYLE GURU STYLE: Over Haul

August 18th, 2016 at 2:10am

I’ve always wanted to find the perfect pair of overalls that would ensure I wouldn’t look like a farm girl and could still pull off some street cred. Whether you’re looking for basic denim or in my case cargo, I’m more than sure you can find the perfect pair this season. The best part about overalls is that they can be easily transitioned into the fall season, especially if they are a pant suit.

Taking inspiration from Chloe’s spring 2016 collection, I combined classic overalls with a white, cropped T-shirt and white sneakers to make it my own. In this look on the runway she had a long necklace over hanging the overalls; I decided to give it a more ’90s-retro feel with a classic choker.

I am obsessed with thrift shopping for the latest trends, and this time of year is perfect; everything you wanted this summer is now on sale at a reduced price. Working in retail you can spot your favorites from a mile away. I always keep an eye on my must-haves to ensure they don’t get away. Instagram has also become a shopping destination for new arrivals. It’s a great place to get ideas and learn from the many online bloggers that make it look far too easy.

Instead of a cropped T-shirt you could also switch things up with a baggy band T-shirt to make it extra comfy. If you’re looking for a dressier look try swapping the sneakers for a pair of booties, to give you that upscale version. In my case I was in the middle of running errands so sneakers fit me just perfectly. Wherever your day takes you, be sure you have the right shoes for the job.

Get My Look: 1. Overalls. 2. Choker. 3. Sneakers.
