STYLE | so what's your style?

A friend of mine recently asked me how I would describe my fashion style. It was a bit difficult for me to answer her at first because I've never actually thought of what my style really was. So it got me thinking...

I think if i had to choose one word to describe my style, it'd be comfy. Whatever I wear, it absolutely has to be something that I can be able to wear through a whole day of classes without going back to my room to change. As a future teacher, clothes that I am able to look presentable and be comfortable is something that is a definite must. Layering is something that seems to work most of the time. I've recently realized that i have a lot of basic color solid tops and such but i'm trying to stray away from that now that I seem to be accumulating more than I really need. WOOPS!

option 1: Cozy layered knits in a neutral color palette paired with functional cargo pants are a great outfit for a spring day or just running errands. A little bit of whimsy is added with a printed backpack and effortlessly stylish metallic sneakers complete the look.

option 2: Tunics in the on-trend autumnal palette of army green and navy are made extra comfortable with jeggings or leggings. A water-resistant jacket with lots of pockets is a great layering piece. In early fall, try easy-to-wipe-down patent top-siders or for cooler weather, chic rain boots can weather the elements. Cross body bags are perfect for someone like me who either likes to have their hands available at all times or those who doesn't want to worry about holding a bag.
