With winter on its last legs and weather cramping any creativity with relentless rain and snow, Fordham’s Fashionistos may have fallen into a funk. It seems as though college students everywhere are bundling up in black wool and baggy denim, leaving little to no room for inspiration. This week’s Fashionisto, however, takes on the dipping temperatures with another kind of coat: the jean jacket.
Transcending four seasons and decades of style, the jean jacket is a stylish staple for every forecast. The denim jacket is not only capable of cardigan-like qualities, but it also makes for optimal outerwear. Inside our out, this dapper denim piece is the perfect sweater substitute for any and every season. This Fashionisto combines casual classics with a cool-colored palette to give his easygoing ensemble an aesthetic appeal without forgoing comfort. The warm tones of his brown, buckled belt interrupt the attractive combinations of hunter green and dusty blues. Substituting the typical slacks and sweatshirt with a slim-fit pant and Henley hoodie, this Fashionisto dresses for the winter blues with refinement.
