In most parts of the country (and continent) shorts are tucked away until next spring – summer… but Blake (Serena) shows us how to take short jeans shorts into fall. With tall black Equestrian-rain-boots, and exposed knee-high socks – we can push this look on warmer days until snowfall.
Blake’s rugged denim and buckled-boots on bottom are beautifully offset by her preppy sailor striped navy and white fitted button-down on top; think mens-country-wear meets Upper East Side. Her dainty gold charm bracelet hangs off her right wrist giving a gorgeous hint of femininity, with the gold-and-bronze hued paisley hanker-chef scarf loosely tied around her neck offering the perfect final touch. It’s nice to see a way to wear wardrobe staples like shorts more months of the year, just as it’s nice to see the irony of different looks (preppy, Upper East Side, rugged, menswear, scarf-chic, School-girl, distressed denim) all coming together: seamlessly. Serena-Style.
Just when we’d fully started to embrace the world of skinny jeans – wide leg and flared legs are BACK Thankfully bootcut, skinny, slim, boyfriend and other denim cuts are still very much in-fashion. But their relaxed siblings are here to help us mix-it-up. Jessica-Rachel-and-Katie-style…
Jessica’s chooses a brighter hue of HOT-blue for her flare. The thin hem-line is more flattering on the leg (Katie’s thicker hem-style can truncate shorter legs, although here her high-waist style balances the look). Rachel’s medium-wash relaxed trousers are perfectly paired with a men’s-style vintage belt. The oval buckle softens tougher denim and leads fabulously into the loose striped tee on top. Katie’s high-waisted style works best with fitted tops tucked-in to highlight your waist-line. Her belt adds emphasis and balances the denim. “Because a waist is a terrible thing to waste.”
So get your trousers on, and join the hot new denim look that’s traveling all-around tinsel town.
