Today I have a fun fit for you! I LOVE the look so much!
I went to an event at Roam and Dwell -a boutique in Uptown Charlotte- and picked up a few pieces there, one of them being this cute graphic t-shirt, with neon, fur details! I was in love with it from the moment I saw it. Friends, I have been learning in hard to this side of my style aesthetic!
I think I have briefly mentioned this before, but my style aesthetic has been all about color and playing with different silhouettes, textures, patterns, etc. Then for a while, I kind of got really self-conscious about my preferences. I am not really sure why or what caused it, but I felt like I pulled back a lot. Then for a brief minuet, I kind of played around with the minimalistic styling (for those who aren't familiar, that is a simple styling technique with majority of neutral colors. It is very neat and clean cut, which I do like about it.) But try as I might, that just is not me.
Then I came across a few IG content creators, @byaimeekelly in particular, and her styling is right up my ally! I felt so seen and felt like I had permission -for lack of a better word- to really go for it!
I have also been hella inspired to play around with styling lately! Its been so nice!
Arguably though, one of my favorite parts of this look is this denim jacket that I spruced up! This was also an DIY inspo from @byaimeekelly! She decorated one of her leather coats and I think she sewed her patches on. Well, I'm no seamstress so iron on patches was what I went with. But it is amazing how much life was brought back into the jacket, just by adding some patches! It also satisfied my desires for instant results lol. (That is why I do not embark on a lot of DIY projects, I am not patient enough!)
AND this is during a period of time where I was experiencing some heavy anxiety, so ironing on these patches was pretty calming! I would turn on a podcast or vlog that I enjoy and listen to it in the background, while I ironed on the patches!
What do you guys think?
Thank you for reading! And have a great weekend ahead!
