Same Denim, Different Day.

These. These are a beautiful thing. There is a lot to be said for a good pair of denim- they're like the sisterhood of the travelling pants denim; they fit perfectly and feel magical,  except I don't have to share them with anyone. These babies are mine. But I highly recommend you make your way to H&M and try a pair on...and the best part you ask? They're $20.00 regular price! I think they are quite a flattering length (maybe I'm bias because I'm short and they dont need to be hemmed), they aren't quite skinny jeans, but maybe more of a tailored boyfriend style jean. Regardless of the "scientific" name of denim, if you will, this style is amazing!

A good pair of denim is a wardrobe staple. I always like to take basic pieces and amp it up to create a unique, fashionable look. It's like what my dad always told me about cooking: "you start with something simple, and amp it up by adding different ingredients"... except I don't cook, I put outfits together.
I paired together 2 basic garments: light wash denim with a plain white t-shirt I picked up at Michael's arts and crafts store for about 5 dollars. I used adobe illustrator to create an iron on 'logo' saying DO EPIC CHIC (which I saw on pinterest), and paired the basic duo with a dusty rose coloured kimono by BCBG that I purchased from Beacons Closet (stay tuned for the remainder of my New York trip...I promise you, it will happen), a curated thrift shop in Brooklyn. To give this outfit a slight boho feel, I put my hair in a side braid, and topped it off with my black wool hat (literally), and lots of dainty jewelry.
I really like this look overall. It's not too flashy, and has the right amount of colour (for me, anyways). I hardly wear colour (even in the summer), but I think the dusty rose and light denim compliment each other quite well. And of course no summer look is complete without a large structured bag and massive grey (retro inspired) sunglasses!

    I am a full time fashion student and a full time fashionista. Being both is hard, but rewarding work. Keeping up with trends, while keeping up with homework... It's harder than keeping up with the Kardashian's! Lucky for me, neither of these professions slow down; hence full time. Homework is always piling up, and trends are always changing, but that's what I love about this industry!
