WHAT TO WEAR: Weekend Wear

May 7th, 2015 at 2:00am

Finals may be right around the corner, but sunny days and warm temperatures make me want to forget about studying and lounge on the quad instead. Unfortunately, this tends not to be the most realistic option for hardworking college students. That’s why weekends are so great. For two whole days (or three if you’re lucky), you can brush work to the back burner as you soak in the sun and enjoy the weather.

This Fashionista is ready for the weekend. I love her refined bohemian look. Her pants are a guaranteed statement piece in any outfit. The paisley pattern and loose cut add a worldly feel. This Fashionista clearly brings her A-game, since printed and wide-leg pants are huge trends right now. Plus, these pants work well for whatever the weekend may bring, from studying in the library or having lunch on the quad to playing Frisbee with friends or catching up on errands at the mall.

Of course, the pants would not be complete without the top. This shirt works perfectly with the statement pants. Even though it is plain white, the lace detailing adds a subtle detail to the overall outfit without competing with the other pieces within it. This is the ideal weekend top. It works just as nicely on its own as it does layered underneath a cardigan or a more structured jacket.

As far as accessories go, this Fashionista has weekend style on point. Her sandals are comfy and chic. The mix of different shades of leather looks elegant and matches with practically everything. Her bag, on the other hand, seems to have been made to go with her pants. I love how it is slightly slouchy and just big enough to hold a book, a sweater and snacks (also known as weekend essentials).

All in all, this Fashionista knows just what to wear when Friday rolls around. Her combination of prints and materials leads to a one of a kind ensemble that is just as fashionable as it is practical. After all, weekend wear is about mixing comfort and style so that you can look good and have fun at the same time.

One Simple Change: Have a date night this weekend? Swap out the sandals for a pair of strappy wedges. Not only is the height an added confidence boost, but it also elongates your legs and helps you achieve supermodel status.
