How We Wear It: 'Same Old Chic'

Wednesday, July 2, 2014 /

If you’re anything like me, you know how easy it can be to fall into a fashion rut. Due to the fact that my closet is comprised of basics in various shades of black, the “rut” into which I fall never really comes as a surprise. Yet however chic I imagine my rut to be, it inevitably leaves me feeling underdressed, uninspired, and curled up in a ball of desperation. If you, too, suffer from this predicament, have no fear — solving the “different day, same old chic” dilemma is easier than you think.
If I happen to feel myself lacking in creative vision, I merely revert to an old tried and true trick, and my outfit today is a perfect example. It’s a phenomenon known to every fashion girl in the world, and for good reason: it works.  The secret? Juxtaposition. Simply mix opposites together, and the result is always magic.

For my outfit, I chose a mix of high and low. I paired my casual Rebel Redefined t-shirt with some thrifted jeans, and mixed them with over-the-top sunglasses and a sleek pair of leather flats. Without accessories, my outfit would have been boring at best. But with a little flair to contrast the potential dullness, I ensured that that the only place for the “different day, same old chic” problem was on my shirt.
