ALL IN THE DETAILS: Pin is In

It’s getting close to the end of the semester and by now, we’ve already worn some of our best outfits of the season. After a few months into a season, I always look for new ways to spice up my look to keep my outfits fresh and unique. I love how the addition of just one accessory can change an entire outfit, whether it’s some cool jewelry, a scarf, a bag or some pins. One new trend in accessories I’ve spotted around campus lately is pins. Enamel and button pins are the latest way to embellish a little something to an otherwise simple item, whether it’s a jacket, shirt or even a bag.

This Fashionista incorporated just the right amount of accessories into her outfit. She started with a simple and chic sleeveless white turtleneck top, and complemented her top’s neckline with a funky statement necklace. She kept the rest of her outfit simple with some light wash jeans and brown suede booties. Since it’s getting chilly here in Philadelphia, this Fashionista topped her outfit with a mahogany colored jacket with a white stitching detail.

The real statement piece of this Fashionista’s outfit is her bag, which is lined with carefully curated button pins. These pins have everything from The Beatles to cool patterns on them, which is just one of the ways this Fashionista’s bubbly and bright personality shines through in her outfit. My favorite way to step up an outfit is to add a special accessory that has a story behind it. Whether it’s a necklace from a special vacation or a scarf that was a gift from a friend, the best way to show your personality through in an outfit is by adding some accessories with a special memory. If you find yourself feeling dreary with the rush of cold weather we’ve had, take a look at your accessories, add something new to your outfit and get ready for an entirely new outlook on your closet!
