Fall into Fashion
Ehh. What a cliche ?! But fall is one of my very favorite seasons for two main reasons. One being my birthday (October 22- I'll be 21 next week wooo), and the other would be for my deep deep love for cardigans and cute boots and booties!
So like every fall I destroy the Internet looking for fall fashion inspiration, but this year was a little different. I decided NOT to look for style/styling information and just go with my own style and give my own fashion inspiration for you guys. I decided to instead further develop my unique sense of style rather than just conforming and trying to fit in. But first let me explain my style to you.
I am a very low maintance type of girl. I usually take 10-20 in the morning to get ready (depending on if I will shower in the morning or did at night). So to read in between the lines, I choose more sleep over cute outfits pretty much everyday of the week. Just being honest. So I call them the three struggles of getting ready, so in the morning I pic a struggle. Whether to do my hair, wear make up, or wear an cute outfit. Because in the short time I give my self each morning I can't do it all. Although you may think it and I may wish and dream it, but I am not actually Wonder Woman. Sorry for the let down.
I am despite what people think of me am very minimalistic. However I do it in an ultra chic way. Well I think so anyway. I only stretch for all three on the weekend when I actually see people, which is where the nonbelief is steamed.
So what you've all been waiting for outfit details !!!
Striped Shirt Outfit
Stripped Shirt with Teal Trim -LC by Lauren Conrad
Hollister Jeans-Legging Fit
Brown boots from Rue 21
My styling tips:
*When your outfit is so simple like mine I quite often like to add a cool hair style to complement it. Here I simply sectioned off all the hair across the front of my head and did a two strand flat twist. I secured the twist behind my ear with two bobby pins, wavy side down, and put the rest in a messy bun.
Make up in minimal. BB cream, concealer, blush and Mascara. Took all of 3.5 minutes.
Oversized Cardigan Outfit
Lauren by Ralph Lauren Jean polo
Very J oversized cardigan
Forever 21 Jeans
Brown boots from Rue 21
Belt Vintage-From my late Grandmother
My styling tips:
When wearing items that can be oversized I like to add a belt to help define some sort of shape so you don't just look like you're hiding in a huge fat man sweater. (Not that there's anything wrong with fat men. They are kinda cool, and squishy like a teddy bear and silly puddy. Sorry, tangent.)
Wearing your hair (or weave) down gives you some more breaking up of your body and gives a more carefree look.
