Button-up: Forever21 | Jeans: Hot Topic |
Boots: G.H. Bass

Based on the amount of snow we received this weekend, I guess you can say it’s officially winter.

After the storm finally ended, I decided to venture outside wearing a vintage camo jacket, Hillman College sweatshirt, button-up, skinny jeans, and a pair of boots.

I guess you can consider this a modern prep look, especially with the sweatshirt, button-down combo.

For a finishing touch, I decided to wear this fun, winter appropriate hat from H&M.

So, how do you feel about this look. Feel free to share with us in the comments section below.

Casual: Bohemian Chic

For most of January, the temperature has been more than 20 degrees warmer than usual. This seems odd considering that most winters are usually very frigid and cold in the northeast. Whatever the case may be, it’s important to take advantage of this unusual occurrence. You should definitely think about resurrecting some of your beloved fall gear!

Recently, a visitor all the way from the Big Apple decided to stop by the blog, Rashida! Today, this diva is back to show off her latest look.

Very reminiscent of the Romeo Must Die Era, Rashida’s dressed down her long, fitted dress with a pair of combat boots. She accessorized with a longline cardigan and wide brim fedora, giving us a bohemian chic vibe!

Rashida agrees, and had this to say about her outfit, “I love this bohemian chic style. the dress is trendy, yet functional. I can dress it up or down and I love pieces with versatility.”

So, how do you feel about this look?

How Did I Wear…

Jeans: ASOS | Loafers: ASOS

How did I wear…a plaid coat?

For all you men on the go who are looking for a classic look, I highly recommend the plaid coat as your number one draft pick this season. Not only does this coat give you that rugged, lumberjack look, its very versatile. You can practically wear it with anything.

Tip: If you are looking for a plaid coat, check out any major department or retail store. I always catch a good, mid-season sale at Old Navy.

Today, I styled my plaid coat with a yellow sweatshirt. Since red and yellow compliment each other quite well, I put this look together in no time!

Tip: If your scared about catching a chest cold, don’t be afraid to layer up. Consider wearing a denim shirt, under a cashmere sweater. That’s a great option if you are going with a preppy look.

I further styled my plaid coat with DIY skinny jeans from ASOS, and a pair of leather tassel loafers.

Tip: If you want the full plaid experience, go with bolder prints and brighter colors!

Strictly Business: Navy Suit

“Navy is the new black!” -Kris

For this week’s individual style feature, Kris is back with another suit from his collection. This time, we are talking about the navy suit! Described as one of the most important items in a man’s wardrobe, the navy suit can be tailored to fit your body. According to Kris, “The navy suit is self explanatory. The trick here is to buy a suit that fits just right or visit your local tailor to customize your suit to fit you perfectly. It’s not what you wear, it’s how you wear it.”

For a slight contrast, Kris chose to pair his slim, fitted suit with a dark brown, double monk strap shoe. “As mentioned in a previous look, I would consider these shoes a two-in-one man necessity. The dapper man should ALWAYS own a dark brown dress shoe and a double monk strap.”

To finish off this look, Kris accessorized his suit with a paisley colored pocket square. Not only is the pocket square unique in color, it was handmade by Kris himself. “The pocket square that I created was hand sewn out of vintage fabrics.  I only made one of these squares as a sample which was a huge mistake! Everywhere that I wear this pink, paisley, silk pocket square, people offer to buy it right out of my blazer chest pocket! This gives the “wow” effect that any accessory should have, especially when it matches perfectly with your shirt.”

Remember, when adding accessories, don’t be afraid to add something with a little flare!
