All American

Crop top- American Eagle Outfitters

Sneakers- Keds

Leather bracelets- Libeskind

Sunglasses- Vans

***************************************

Today's the 2nd day of summer! For today's look, I wanted something all American & classic. I threw on this maroon & white striped crop top from AEO & paired it with these cutoffs (that I actually cut myself) from American Apparel. I chose to wear my floral Keds with this look since Keds are a classic shoe, but the floral print adds an up to date fun touch. I said I was going to start adding accessories and I did! I'm wearing these 2 made into 1 bracelets from Libeskind to add an extra pop of color and these tortuous shell with teal accents sunglasses by Vans. Sun a fun look to put together. What are you all wearing today? 

Prepster in an Oxford

Oxford & jeans- American Eagle

Sneakers- my favorite blue low top Converse all stars from 7th grade :)

Oxford shirts, in my opinion, are the best shirts ever. They're practically unisex (depending on the cut) they're versatile, flattering, and they come in so many different shapes sizes and colors you're bound to find a few that you love. And they're  not just for work as some of you may think; they're totally appropriate For any occasion. Its all about how you wear it. The Oxford I'm wearing today is a mens, green pinstriped piece from AE. It's so comfortable & breathable. Since this is a men's shirt, it's really structured and has nice clean lines. To balance that out I paired it with some ripped jeans & beat up chucks. The green of the shirt & the blue of the Converse compliment each other so well. Since I'm just going to work I kept my outfit simple, but you can go so much farther with this look. I think it'd look really good with a chunky gold necklace and some arm candy. How will you dress up (or down) your Oxford shirts?

Back in the day, the style icons we turned to when in need of some fresh new fashion ideas, were usually celebrities, models, big time designers or stylists. Now, in the Internet age, the people we turn to more are style & fashion bloggers, regular people you would see on the street. It's so much more fun seeing looks we would like to try ourselves on people who are very much just like us. A blogger can show you how to put together great looks within an affordable budget, and they also come in all shapes, styles, and sizes so finding a blog just for you should be a breeze with some research. So go ahead and look for a blog to follow (or stay right here with me 😊) and find your new style icon!
