Fall has finally begun! Typically, that means it’s time to throw on sweaters and scarves and enjoy a nice warm drink from Starbucks, but for the South that isn’t the case… just yet. For those of us in Arkansas it feels like we are still stuck in summer. We do get the occasional fall day with a cool breeze, but as of lately, the weather has been warm. Our mornings start off cold and as the day goes on the sun’s rays lay on the heat.
The weather we are experiencing in Arkansas calls for a mix of summer and fall garments. This means creating outfits that mix sweaters with skirts or shorts and pairing jeans with tank tops. It also allows Fashionistas/os to choose between boots or sandals. This Fashionista exemplifies the summer-meets-fall aesthetic with her outfit. Her color palette of black and white will forever and always be a classic look. She paired a simple, sheer white tank with high-rise black BDG skinny jeans and black booties. Under her white tank she wore a strappy bra. Bralettes and strappy bras are very on-trend right now and have been since the springtime. If you ever find that wearing just black and white is too plain, throw on some accessories to spice things up a bit like this Fashionista did. You can choose to wear colored accessories, wear more black and white or play with metallics.
How To: I am a firm believer that no matter what style category you fall under, you can always look good in black and white. Black and white is classic and goes with everything. If you want to recreate this Fashionista’s look all you need is a white tank, a strappy bra, black high-rise skinny jeans, black booties and some cute metallic accessories to add some spark to your look. This Fashionista decided to accessorize with a pre-layered necklace along with gold rings, a skinny armband and a thrifted vintage belt.
