Still eyeing that pair of overalls that’ve been sitting in an open tab on your laptop for weeks? I get it, they look great on the model, but you’re worried they might take your look straight from fashion to farmer. Well fear not, because this week we focus on a Fashionista who successfully elevates the vibe of overalls from one of pulling carrots, to one of rocking karats—gold karats that is. By adding an unexpected golden glint with her luxe sneakers and jewelry, she dresses up a very casual, utilitarian look, creating a thoughtful contrast between practical and outrageous. Her gold and diamond ear jackets, gold rope bracelet and gold sneakers are eye-catching and fun, but still practical for dashing across campus.
The pinstripe denim of her overalls is the perfect summer print for the first day of classes, and she keeps the color palette simple with pale blue, gold and black. She layers a high-neck black top underneath and is prepared for some serious note-taking with a glam black leather backpack. Overall (get it?), this look is a fresh play on an old classic and by adding cool metallic accents, it definitely transcends the vegetable patch.
