STYLE GURU STYLE: Loose Luxury

Scott Studenberg and John Targon’s mailboxes should be stuffed to the brim daily with thank you cards from Fashionistas/os all over the globe. Why? Well, brace yourselves. The designing duo’s latest Baja East resort 2015 collection is the chicest defense against an ever too familiar case of the Mondays. “Loose luxury” is what these designers called it. Sweatpants, hoodies and Nike sneakers made up the majority of the collection, but fear not—“slouchy” replaced “sloppy” in all casual cases. Additionally, animal printed and Aztec patterned fabrics created a wanderlust wardrobe that could take any landlocked Fashionista to paradise.

For me, the Baja East collection was love at first drawstring. I couldn’t wait to add 15 more minutes to my alarm clock as I finally had a legitimately fashionable route toward the “I woke up like this” look. Although I couldn’t find sweatpants as stylish as Baja East’s, I did find some slouchy slacks that resembled the collection’s black and blue print to a trendy tee. I also preferred a sheer, button-up and knotted tank to a cardigan for this sultry summer season. The leopard graphics on my white tank top created a cool, comfortable and cohesive cardigan replacement. I kept all of this in mind when it came to the black bandeau and Nike sneakers I used, which can be found in most modeled looks of Baja East. Finally, I accessorized naturally with some crazy curly bed head hair.

If there’s one thing I learned from Scott Studenberg and John Targon, it’s that there is no excuse for style to slack—even on laundry days. Whether it’s a hurried morning that leaves you latte-less or a day that just begs for bed and ice cream, Baja East will rest all your wardrobe worries with its casual collection.
