There are few moments when a true Fashionista puts style on the back burner. However, this happens every semester during a caffeine and stress-filled period known as finals week. It’s the time of the semester when studying is more important than styling, and grades are superior to glamour.
This Fashionista, however, managed to retain her sense of style while preparing for finals. It is her effortless and bold fashion choices that caught my eye on Comm. Ave. during her study break. Her teal peacoat is an instant standout item, with its vivid hue and cowl-neck collar. Basic jeans are added to the look, but are cuffed at the bottom to add an interesting detail. She finished the look with a funky pair of lace-up boots that were found at a thrift store—proving that chic fashion does not need to come with a high price tag. The most appealing aspect of her ensemble is the small amount of effort that could go into reproducing the outfit. Basic items—a pea coat, jeans and boots—are easily thrown together to create a trendy ensemble.
A bright coat is a fantastic option for an effortlessly fashionable studying look. Try a red coat or blue pea coat to dress up any pair of jeans. For a coat similar to today's Fashionista's, Urban Outfitter's teal coat or yellow cowl-neck coat both have the same feel. Then, style the outfit with a comfortable pair of boots. For a look like today's Fashionista’s try black boots with laces. This outfit combination will soon become a go-to choice for chic studying apparel. Just add a cup of coffee and some school books and you will be ready to take on finals week in style.
Hint: While studying, the last thing any Fashionista wants to deal with is uncomfortable clothing. The key is to keep the outfit simple and chic. Opting for a few basic, but comfortable pieces, like this Fashionista’s coat and worn-in boots, will allow for more comfortable and focused study time.
