Street Style

Fashion is made to become unfashionable.
Coco Chanel

A girl has got to come down out of those heels, SOMETIMES! Street style is a huge form of expression. Many designers admit that their creations are inspired by what they see everyday on the street. This can range from graffiti, to buildings and even music. I chose to use the quote above because it was once considered unfashionable to just throw anything on. But today dressing how you feel is a popular trend, and I personally believe it creates the best personal style.

Over the weekend I went back to Atlanta for my first Homecoming as a alumni. I had an early flight and wanted to be cute, yet comfortable. I also wanted to be dressed for a day of hanging out. This look was “mod” inspired. As you all know I am no stranger to mixing prints, so I decided to pair vertical stripes with box print. I think it gave my look a more “street” feel.

To add a bit more edge, I completed my “street style” with a pair of lace up combat boots. They are extremely comfortable and have a three inch thick rubber heel. I just couldn’t be completely flat footed. I will definitely be wearing these all fall and throughout the winter.
