STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: High-Waisted Hipster

Our summer break filled with friends from home and days laying by the pool are sadly coming to an end, but coming back to campus is the perfect time to show off the fresh, new looks that you’ve been putting together all summer. Before you know it, the weather will cool off and flip flops and summer dresses will become more and more scarce on the campus quad. With the shorter and sunless days quickly approaching, it’s time to let your wardrobe do the shining. Spaghetti straps turn to cozy sweaters, high-waisted shorts are switched out for jeans and umbrellas replace your oversized shades. However, this doesn’t mean that your style has to suffer. Check out this Fashionista’s blast from the past look!

When you think of high-waisted jeans, you might think of what your mother wore when she was your age and how awful you used to say her style was. However, the fashion world has brought them back. This Fashionista has definitely pulled off this hipster throwback look with her high-waisted jeans from H&M. You can wear high-waisted jeans with a pair of wedges, flats or even Converse. The versatility of this popular trend is what makes it one of my favorites. They go perfectly with a basic T-shirt tucked into the jeans or a trendy crop top like this Fashionista wore. Not only does this style of jean go with just about anything, but it also can be pulled off with any body type. The high-waisted style accentuates curves and keeps you looking stylish!

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “My style advice of the week is to not be afraid to wear a trend that was popular in the past. Certain clothing always comes in and out of style in the fashion world, just like high-waisted jeans. Make your own statement, and have fun with it!”
