STYLE GURU STYLE: Satin…The New Suede

Kate Moss’ signature ’90s look has made a comeback. What you used to wear to bed has become one of the hottest fashion trends this season: satin slip dresses. What’s better than feeling like you’re wearing pajamas, yet still looking chic? Absolutely nothing. It’s safe to say that satin is the new suede this fall. You can expect to see many celebrities rocking the slip dress on the streets of New York City. I was a little skeptical of this trend at first. I felt like the idea of wearing pajama-like material in public was a little risky. After I put my champagne slip dress on, I didn’t want to take it off! I love the romantic, yet effortless look it gives.

For this ensemble, I chose to contrast the feminine dress with casual white sneakers and mirrored sunglasses. I love the idea of taking a chic nighttime dress and making it daytime-appropriate. While you might not wear it to class, (although, who doesn’t love the idea of wearing PJs in class?) it’s perfect for a brunch date. Another trend that has come about this season is throwing on a white T-shirt underneath the slip dress. Yes, I said it. Remember the middle school days of pairing T-shirts under your favorite tank tops to abide by the school dress code? That trend is back, and it’s better than ever. You can quickly change this to a nighttime date look by pairing it with black lace-up heels and a clutch bag. Will you slip into this trend this fall?
