STYLE GURU STYLE: Saint Laurent

September 9th, 2015 at 2:00am

Recently I have been looking into Saint Laurent’s style—clothing, handbags, shoes, makeup, all of it. Being in love with every piece of clothing I came across, whether it was because it was beautiful or just because Cara Delevingne did an amazing job at strutting it, I decided to try and take one of the styles from their spring 2015 ready-to-wear runway show and turn it into more of an everyday affordable look. It’s not always the hardest thing to find similar styles to what is on the runway, however it is difficult to find the perfect way to pair items together to make it look like it just came off the runway.

The look I found from Saint Laurent was fun to translate into an everyday look. I decided to take the main colors from the look and make something similar. For the top, Cara is wearing a sparkly black crop top. To make this more of a day look, I decided to stick with a simple black crop top from Urban Outfitters. The top is insanely soft and goes perfectly with just about everything.

In the runway photo the skirt was, to me, the main focus for the outfit. I took that idea and decided to get a skirt with a little something to it rather than just a solid color. This skirt, also from Urban Outfitters, is a nice mustard yellow color with little cross designs on it. My favorite part about this skirt is that it buttons up in the front! I think that the buttons complete the look for the skirt and pull it altogether in a chic yet simple way.

Now for the details! For shoes I’m wearing these black laced up loafers from Dolce Vita. I thought these shoes complemented the outfit perfectly and were the same style of where I had this outfit going. For my bag, I’m wearing one of my favorites—it’s the Avery cross-body bag by Rebecca Minkoff in all black. I love this bag for when you don’t need to bring much with to where you’re going. It’s simple and the perfect way to complete the look!
