CC ME: CASUAL CHIC
It’s been a what to wear to lunch, meet up with a friend, quick errand run, back to work pandemic schedule type of week.
I don’t know whether I am coming or going. My mid-day action includes trying to beat the clock to cut 38 IHC slides for the Pathologist before 3:30 pm
or someone yelling “I’ll stop this train, so nobody will go home” on the Metro.
I am like
why do I feel as though this is a scene from a movie?
Damn, should I even stop in H& M to catch the sale?
Searching for pieces was a challenge, especially if you had a vision, curated a mood-board, pressed for time, and it’s out of stock. I used to get stuck trying to rework pieces for casual + chic + comfy wear.
It’s either a “Nah, it’s too dressy for the occasion ” or “ are we working out or being proactive to work out ...decisions decisions
We have all been there fashionistas!
So I have curated a few styling tips & suggestion looks to incorporate into your casual + chic for post-pandemic wardrobe closet.
Tomboy chic :( oversized varsity sweatshirt or jacket, denim jacket, jeans skinny, dad hat, oxford shirt, or thigh-high boot)
Denim vs denim ;( i like to do an acid wash denim shirt or pants for contrast ( dark denim jeans ) converse high top
Sweatshirt + sweater dress w/ decorative stockings ( “riding boots “) or low thigh high boots
Sweater vest w/ turtleneck, black faux leggings, and combat boots
Jeans + graphic ( stellar outerwear piece) with this fit, you can play around with bold outerwear piece ( vinyl trench, bubble, teddy, faux fur trench) or shoes ( platform sneakers, suede chunky knee heel boots embroidered heels)
Keep in my mind ladies, We are going for the 4 C’s
