STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Vintage Vibrance

We’ve all wanted to invent a time machine and travel back to the ‘80s, right? Well, bringing back trends from respective decades is the closest thing we have to taking a trip through time! The ‘80s fashion vibe embraces cool colors, washed out jeans and funky accessories. When I think of trends from previous decades, vintage clothing and intricate color blends come to mind. How well can a vintage look be pulled off in the year 2015?

Luckily, this Fashionista is a pro who rocks a funky decade-old style characterized by a mustard-colored turtleneck crop. Crop tops and turtlenecks were super trendy in the late ‘80s / early ‘90s and they seem to be making their way back. What better way to stand out than to flaunt a brightly colored decade-old staple? The unique visual texture on the mustard crop top gives it a vintage feel that also indicates a level of trendiness. What’s really nice about this stylish piece is its flexibility to be worn so many different ways. This Fashionista went full-out vintage by coupling her turtleneck crop with a pair of washed out high-waisted denim shorts and some Converse All- Stars. This getup gives off a super chill vibe that accentuates a more relaxed sense of style.

Is it possible to add some spice to a vintage look by adding a few accessories? Well of course! As seen through this Fashionista’s flawless style, a simple bracelet band and some earrings will do the trick. The bracelet band compliments the turtleneck top quite well. Although the lovely brightness of the mustard color is enough to catch our attention, our eyes can’t help glancing over the simple yet trendy accentuates.
