My Style: Denim Overalls & Velvet


Today's Look:  shows how to work comfy, loose overalls into a street-chic outfit.  For the look, I started with the overalls.  I am loving the overalls trend that is resurfacing in the sleek streets of New York and the sunny hills of California, so I couldn't wait to rock these.  This particular pair of overalls is a moderate boyfriend fit, meaning not overly baggy or large.  Since the overalls are modest, I chose a velvet crop-top that lets just a hint of skin be visible from my hips to my waist.  To match the acid-washed, black denim and burgundy velvet, I picked black floral Vans.  I like how the sneakers gave the look a flirty tomboy feel.  Finishing off the look, I chose a black clutch, bedazzled sunglasses, a shimmery bracelet, skull earrings, and multiple rings.


Outfit Details:  Overalls by Bullhead Denim Co. at PacSun (Scottsdale, Arizona), Top by Basil Lola at Basement Marketplace (Flagstaff, Arizona), Shoes by Vans at Journeys (Prescott, Arizona), Clutch from oasap.com, Sunglasses from Old Navy (Tucson, Arizona),  Earrings by Wet Seal at Blink (Anaheim, California), Black Ring at Earthbound Trading co. (Flagstaff, Arizona), Big Ring at Bealls (Prescott, Arizona), Faith Ring from Premiere Designs, Nails by Impress Nails at Walgreens (Prescott, Arizona), Eyeliner called Perfect Wear Eyewriter and Super Extend Infinitize Mascara from Avon, Bracelet and Midi Ring were gifts.


Fashion Tip:  Trying a new makeup technique or style can feel refreshing and transform an outfit to another level.  I have a normal makeup routine that I have become comfortable with, not too heavy, but effective.  For this look, I wanted to try something new and out of my comfort zone.  I have always loved how winged eyeliner seems dramatic and elegant.  Since I am a newbie to this technique, I followed a YouTube tutorial (which I included below).
