STYLE GURU STYLE: The Art of Camouflage

August 11th, 2015 at 2:00am

Lately, the fashion industry has been overwhelmed with edgy women dominating street style, social media, runways and the like. One of the most powerful tools a Fashionista or Fashionisto can carry in their arsenal of clothing right now is a fabulous camo piece. Depending on how you style your camo garment, it can make your outfit chic, fierce and will definitely capture the attention of everyone in the room.

Taking inspiration from Valentino’s 2015 prre-fall collection, I found a great bohemian-style harem with a camo print so that the length matched the pants found on the Valentino runway. This looser-fit gives your look a different angle, as well as a more laid back vibe than a straight-legged bottom. Wearing these pants with a fitted tank top and jean jacket, I threw on some heels to make this outfit go from casual to a look that can work while getting drinks after work. Wearing heels also elongated the visual of my legs as harem pants do have the ability to make them look shorter because of their style.

Camo pants, or a camo piece in your outfit, can really make you feel like your vibe is channeling the ‘00’s with a more up to date twist. This helps you achieve the look that you want to steal the attention in the room, and it helps that camo is so diverse, which makes it a fun print to play with when creating outfits.

Get My Look: 1. Find a great pair of camo pants. 2. A tank top or fitted shirt. 3. A denim jacket. 4. A great pair of heels.
