“Fashion is about dressing according to what’s fashionable. Style is more about being yourself.” —Oscar de la Renta
This quote really resonates with me because I really believe that you can have all the designer stuff, the latest this, and the exclusive that, but style is not something that you can buy. The everyday me is casual, but in most cases with a little something extra to express my sense of style. That’s just what I wanted to bring to New York Fashion Week and anywhere I go. For this look I took some thrifted (similar here) jeans and a tshirt from ASOS and leveled it up just a bit with two accessories.
Let’s be honest the suede fringe jacket is the star of this look and effortlessly added all the extra that this otherwise minimalistic jeans and tshirt combo needed. I’ve been obsessing about ugly sneakers aka dad sneakers for a minute and finally dived in with these Puma Electric Thunders. The little brown and orange accents on the sneaks tied in with the jacket and the red graphic on the tee nicely. If you like the look of dad sneakers, but want some that aren’t too “out there” these Puma Electric Thunders are great pair to start with (see more pretty dad sneakers here).
