STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Own It

Here at CollegeFashionista, we believe that the campus is your runway. I found a kindred spirit in this week’s Fashionisto. He is a firm believer in working life’s runway and making the most of each day. This former fashion major shows us how to seamlessly blend different styles for a cohesive look.

The base of the ensemble is denim on denim. He kept things fresh by pairing his classic straight leg jeans with an acid wash chambray. In buttoning the shirt all the way to the top, our eye is drawn upwards to his eclectic accessories.

The standout piece of this look would have to be the unique knit scarf. The pattern and texture add interest to a neutral color palette, without making the look seem disjointed. His sleek black eyeglasses and simple gold chain necklace manage to blend on-trend with classic.

To complete this look, this Fashionisto chose the ever popular lace-up boot. The brown leather nicely complements the rest of the outfit and creates a polished look overall.

As long as you stick to a clean color palette, you can easily pull off many different trends for a look that is eye-catching and full of personality. This Fashionisto managed to bring in bohemian elements with his oversize knit scarf, a little grunge and edge with his acid wash denim-on-denim, and even had a little prep in his step. Don’t be afraid to try more than one trend in your next ensemble for a look that is sure to wow your audience.
