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.

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).

My Style: Mustang Sally

Today's Look:  includes a knitted horse print sweater, denim short overalls, knee highs, and cut-out ankle boots.  It was a warm, sunny winter's day, so I thought it would be fun to wear shorts with thigh-high socks.  To start the look off, I chose the cut-off overalls and horse print sweater.  Since I've grown up in Arizona, I'm used to cowboys, ranchers, and farmers.  I, however, am allergic to animals and a city girl at heart, so with this outfit I had fun wearing overalls and horses since it's about as close as I will ever get to being a cowgirl.  To match the sweater, I chose thick, knitted, thigh-high socks and chunky ankle boots.  Finishing off the look, I wore heart-shaped, peace sign, dangle earrings, round sunglasses, two rings, and a black studded backpack.

Fashion Tip:  Overalls have been around since the 1700s with most worn by workmen, but these days cut-off overalls or "shortalls" are a modern twist on the old classic. Definitely sexy, tomboy chic!

My Style: Cut-Out Ankle Boots

Today's Look:  is all about the black, short overalls and cut-out, ankle boots.  To start the look off, I first chose my Guess denim overalls.  Since the overalls are high-waisted, I chose to wear a crop-top underneath.  I wanted the shirt to add excitement and sass to the outfit, but also wanted the shirt to match the black denim;  I chose my leopard print crop-top.  Since overalls are sometimes considered kiddish, I chose my buckle-embellished, black leather, and cut-out ankle boots to add some edge to the ensemble.  Finishing off the look, I chose my Coach side-sling purse, sparkly, silver bracelet, three rings, and skull, crystal earrings.

Fashion Tip:  Overalls are back!  When wearing long overalls, roll up the ends to add a boyfriend-pants vibe;  when wearing short overalls, make sure to pick the undershirt carefully.  The undershirt and accessories chosen to accompany the overalls can make or break the outfit.
