STREET CHIC // BLACK OVERALLS

By VanessaNovember 23, 2016November 24, 20167 Comments

Hi there! How is your week going?! I hope you’re enjoying a happy Thanksgiving break surrounded with the family and people you love.
Overalls have become one of the most comfy and cool ways to wear denim. This piece can look from effortless and casual to sophisticated and chic, according to the pieces you incorporate with it. You can play around with this garment, finding the right way that fits with your personality and lifestyle.
For this day, I decided to wear black denim overalls. I finally found the perfect one for me, its cut is great, incredible slimming and minimal, perfect to accentuate your body. I tried some other different styles but I was feeling like a girl from middle school, because they were baggy, slouchy, and unflattering for my body shape. Black overalls are a great option because they are perfect for day or night and for every season.

Come on girls, jump out of your comfort zone and try overalls. I know that styling this piece can be a little tricky. Here are some quick recommendations that might help you rock this trend:

To avoid looking like you are working on a farm, pair this garment with a nice button down shirt giving this piece sophistication and a chic touch. You can wear it to work if you want by incorporating a blazer for a more polished look.

To prevent from looking like you used to look in elementary school, don’t choose a backpack, it’s better to go with a more structured bag, a clutch works great! Dress it up and pair it with heels or nice shoes and subtle accessories.

Natural hair or a topknot, looks definitely much better than pigtails when wearing overalls, because we are trying to make this look chic and appropriate for your age and not to borrow your daughter’s style. If you want to make your look more glam choose a statement necklace.

Wear them during Fall and Winter with a chic jacket, beanie, or a cool hat. Your favorite boots will look on point!

So girls, give your jeans a break and try overalls instead!

Love,

…your best moment to shine is now!

¡Hola! Espero estés disfrutando una increible semana.

El overall se ha convertido en una de las maneras más originales y comodas de llevar la mezclilla. Es una prenda que puede lucir desde muy casual hasta sofisticada y chic, dependiendo de las piezas que incorpores. La idea es jugar alrededor de esta prenda encontrando el estilo que vaya con tu personalidad y estilo de vida.

Para el día de hoy elegí este overall negro, finalmente encontré uno perfecto para mí. El corte ideal, slim, el cual ayuda a acentuar la silueta. Traté diversos estilos, pero honestamente me sentía como una niña de secundaria, ya sea porque era muy suelto o baggy.

Sal un poquito de tu zona de comfort y viste un overall. Te dejo algunas practicas recomendaciones que pueden ayudarte a lucir tu overall de manera muy chic:

Evita lucir como si trabajaras en una granja, mejor combina esta prenda con una camisa blanca, logrando sofisticación y un toque muy chic. Puedes usarlo para el trabajo si deseas, incorporando un saco para un look mucho más pulido y apropiado.

No querrás verte como solias lucir en primaria, llevando tu overall. Por tanto no elijas un backpack. Mejor optar por bolsas mas estructuradas, un lindo clutch es buena opción. Termina tu look con unos tacones o zapatos bonitos y añade delicados accesorios.

El pelo natural o un chongo alto van muy bien con esta prenda. Por favor evita dos colitas o trenzas cuando vistas con un overall. Lo que estamos tratando de hacer es que tu look luzca chic y totalmente apropiado para tu edad y no como que llevaras la ropa de tu hija. Añade un poco de glamour con un collar llamativo.
