STYLE GURU STYLE: As Cool As Corduroy

When I began the process of thinking what I was going to feature for this monthโ€™s article, I couldnโ€™t help but think of how I could express my personal style with something new. As I am always advocating to try something new and be bold, I decided to try something out of my style comfort zone.

In the spirit of fall, I opted to stay on the darker side and choose two colors that go hand in hand. Working from head to toe, Iโ€™ll begin with my hair and sunglasses. As some of you may have noticed, I have been given a generous amount of hair on my head. So for this look, I decided to tame my curls in a classic ponytail to emphasize the black velvet choker I was wearing.  Although the days are getting shorter and the sun is not out as long, sunglasses were a must to add an extra style factor to this look. Moving back to the choker, I chose it to elongate my neck and make my off the shoulder top stand out even more. I paired the top with my favorite burgundy corduroy skirt along with some signature black booties.

As I said before I wanted to try something out of my comfort zone. So far, every time I take this leap of faith for my Style Guru Style articles I am never disappointed in the outcome. I am able to use certain pieces in my closet I never thought of using before with one another as well as discovering and adding new elements to my style. So as I am always advocating, be bold, be you and try something new.
