As 2016 comes to an end, I’m looking forward to the endless possibilities that 2017 has in store. With that being said, I’m also looking back at what made this year so special and how I’ve grown in my connection with fashion and the industry as a whole.
Something that helped shape my taste was being able to spend three months in New York City interning with Nanette Lepore. The information I was given and the observations I made from exploring the city continued to constantly be on my mind while back at Indiana University. For that reason, I paid close attention to style in the classroom, at tailgates, and everywhere in between.
Now that winter is here in Indiana, bundling up and baring the cold weather is a must. I’ve noticed how popular leather coats have become this season. This Fashionista paired her leather coat with a dress, tights, and booties, which was a cute way to combine all aspects of fashion. Because of the outfit’s simplicity, it could be worn on an everyday basis, but I also believe it could be worn to a dressy occasion as well because of the small accents that make it classy. She also added an embellished choker along with matte lip gloss that complimented the floral pattern on her dress. Side note on the matte lip gloss…it’s extremely affordable, it drys immediately, and it lasts for 10 hours or more. It’s definitely recommended.
All in all, her fashion was very on trend and an affordable look for anyone looking to spice up their winter wardrobe. Hope you all enjoy it.
