The furs, leathers and dark lip colors are well on their way; however, neons, sandals and sundresses are trying to savor the last hot days. Here at Hampton, the Fashionista/o’s aren’t letting go of that summer wardrobe just yet. This Fashionista was sure to be seen on campus in her bright neon bodycon dress. Along with her bright dress, she accessorized her look with a statement necklace with summer colors weaved into it. The detailing of her look did not stop at the neckline. Her fingers were decked out in silver rings, complementing the statement Michael Kors watch on her wrist.
During awkward season changes like summer to fall, it is important to have a lot of detailing in an outfit to blend the change of weather and style. With gray pointy toe flats and a gray handbag, this Fashionista let us know that despite her bright colored look, fall is well on its way.
The details of this look were an extension of the dress, which truly complemented everything well. I don’t think there are many people that could add this much detailing and still pull it off. The fun and brightly dressed Fashionista sported her statement necklace without distracting from her statement watch. Oftentimes, two statements in one do not equal a positive in fashion, but she did it. Without the toned down gray color hues, this outfit might have fell apart and been too colorful. This transitioning of seasons is what allows Fashionista/o’s a chance to have fun with summer fashion but still relax with a fall vibe.
When the weather really gets cooler in Virginia, thigh-highs and leather jackets will own this campus. Until then, we’ll continue to merge seasons together through clothing like this Fashionista perfected.
How To: Not ready to say bye to your summer wardrobe but ready to sport some new fall attire? Wear a brightly colored bodycon and use accessories to calm the color down. Grab neutral colors such as black, nude and gray and add them to your look. Do not forget to add a statement necklace to draw the attention somewhere within your outfit. After all, this Fashionista’s neckline was the piece pulling the outfit together.
