STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Hoodwinked

Yo are those leaves on the ground? It’s been a long time coming but it looks like fall has finally hit the midwest. This month’s Fashionista absolutely crushed it with the perfect outfit for that in-between weather.

Three cheers for my favorite season! It’s football season, the entire campus is orange and red from the leaves and it’s 40 degrees and windy every single morning. Sick, right? Wrong. While I love cooler temperatures as much as the next girl, it makes it difficult that after I get out of my 10:30 a.m. class it’s 30 degrees warmer than when I left my apartment. This Fashionista has a solution for that: a hood.

Brilliant. Everyone loves a T-shirt dress, but that’s the problem with them. Everyone loves them. So follow her lead and add a hooded take on the classic T-shirt dress to your closet. There’s even pockets. Doesn’t get much better than that.

If T-shirt dresses aren’t your thing, stick to a hooded cardigan or army jacket to layer over your favorite T-shirt from the summer months.

Fall also means it’s time to get your booty in some booties (punny, right?). Iowa City is home to some of the best boutiques, which is where this Fashionista snagged hers. Lucky for you, you can find similar shoes at Forever 21 for a price that won’t break the bank.

Keep your fall look simple by topping it off with some dainty gold jewelry.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I always am trying to find things that are unique to my style but easy to throw on. The hood on this dress is a dope way to make it my own.”
