There once was an age-old cliché that everything in an outfit had to match. There was a pristine criticality about making sure that even bags and shoes were the same color before being married. Nowadays the rule has evolved into requiring styles to be categorized, to be pinpointed easily when it comes to how you dress. Why not break the barriers and be indefinable by mixing and matching all sorts of styles and pieces together. Clothing is supposed to be adventurous, impulsive, but still very true to your individuality. In terms of shopping, roam the whole store. It’s unfortunate to be anchored in sections where you think you’ll find something.

There is still a formula to create unity and this Fashionista hits the mark perfectly to be quirky with detail, but still be full of chic appeal. You want to look effortless and unique, not over-exaggerated and unappealing. To start off slow, find a neutral base to build upon like her black skinny jeggings. This sets a modest tone to start acquiring layering pieces like the classic striped tee that is bold but still breezy. To catch that flair, find a vibrant patterned scarf that is equally whimsical but still offers a sense of balance with its contrast. Outwear is optional but to create a discreet hush of pattern and texture, a tweed blazer adds another layer of intensity. For fun accessories, go for studded boots and flat faced sunglasses for extra cool. This look plays around with urban essentials and embraces androgynous details. For something more feminine, try a floral pleat skirt, vertical striped shirt, open toe oxford wedges, and warm color cardigan to wrap around your shoulders. Whatever you choose don’t be afraid to mix and match; you’d be surprised what happens. You’re probably the most fashionable when you’re different.
