How to Style Fringe Jackets

Being a lover of bohemian style, I adore fringe jackets - well really fringe anything.  I teamed up with blogger babe Esmirna Tapia of Platforms for Breakfast to show our adored readers two different ways of rocking fringe jackets.  I chose a beachy festival vibe since warm weather is here, and summer is right around the corner.  I styled my heather gray jacket with a halter-topped lace dress, delicate beaded sandals, and a wide-brimmed black hat.  A statement necklace, colorful tribal print purse, and cool sunnies completed the ensemble.  Esmirna, one of my lovely fellow Teen Vogue Fashion Click bloggers, chose to show a stylish white-on-white fringe jacket and skinny jeans along with strappy heels and a striped top. Whether you're a chic city girl or a free-spirited boho babe, fringe jackets are a wardrobe must.  I would love to hear how you rock your fringe in the comments.  Xoxo, Shelly

My Style: Sail Away with Me

Today's Look:  is all about saying goodbye to warm summer days and nights.  Fall is officially here, so it's time for boots, scarfs, jackets, and beanies, but in honor of my favorite season, I wanted to post one of my last summer styles.  To start the look off, I chose white and faded-black striped, denim shorts.  The shorts feature lace embellishing on each leg that dress them up and slightly frayed ends that add edge.  Matching the off-white lace on the shorts, I wore an off-white, collared blouse that I tucked in only in the front to keep the outfit casual.  Next, to match the stripes of the short, I chose to wear my faded-black and off-white floral sneakers.  Finishing off the look, I wore a woven, taupe fedora with an off-white lace strip around the brim, a silver, heart pendant necklace, sparkly clutch, silver bangle, two rings, and fleur-de-lis studs.

Fashion Tip:  When wearing patterned and/or lace shorts, try to wear a simple, solid-color top to compliment rather than compete.

To hop on the fedora bandwagon, I included a variety below as well as their link.
