It’s that time of the year when you aren’t quite sure what to put on when you look outside your window. It’s technically warm, but the overcast sky and over air-conditioned classrooms say otherwise. The answer—and something this Fashionista executes perfectly—is flowy maxi dress and a light jacket to go with it.
The flowy dress is a quintessential spring and summer staple and once fall is upon us, it can be a struggle integrating it into a look because it’s not yet cold. The dark colors of the dress, jacket, backpack and her choice of red lipstick make the look fall appropriate. While the pop of color in her platforms are reminiscent of summer days. Her maxi dress is not only a comfortable and easy outfit choice, but the side slit takes it up a notch to sexy. The stylistic choice of pairing a striped dress with a textured jacket and additionally textured leather backpack makes for a stimulating visual and tactile look; at once classy and cutting-edge.
Whether a similar shape, a bodycon fit or a more androgynous look, you can’t go wrong with a maxi dress during these uncertain atmospheric conditions.
What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “My aesthetic decisions revolve around the mantra: ‘go big or go home.’ Once I make the decision to wear a long dress, a bold lip and chunky heels is a must. It’s so easy to throw on a long dress and red lipstick, and while it takes seconds; it looks fun, bold and well curated.”
