Sport Chic

by The Perennial Style | Nov 6, 2014 | Style, Uncategorized

I don’t know about you, but some days I wake up and just want to toss on something comfy and casual. Luckily for us, the sport chic trend is all over the fashion scene this season, meaning those sweats and sneakers are finally a stylish option! Since I am not a big “flats” person, wedge sneakers are my absolute favorite – and did I mention insanely comfortable? The sport chic trend can be interpreted from as little as sweats with a sporty sneaker to a look as bold as a tailored suit paired with a neon sports bra underneath. See how I added a sporty touch to my daily look and shop my favorite sport chic picks below:

Fall Color Crush: Yellow

by The Perennial Style | Nov 5, 2014 | Style

As the days become shorter with Fall and we start to see less sunshine, I like to add a little yellow into my wardrobe. Though yellow is often seen as a bright summer hue, a more subdued yellow is one of my favorite colors for the season. I love this JOA sweater I found at Milk & Honey, and I paired a classic Polo button-down underneath for a classic yet trendy update to add a little depth to the cable knit. As much as I love following all of the new trends, a classic style is definitely my go-to look. See how I styled my look and shop the links to snag my outfit:

Fall Embellishment

My weekend uniform in the Fall is definitely a sweater, jeans, and boots. It’s easy, cozy, and perfectly casual for weekend wear. I love finding cozy casuals with a bit of embellishment for an added accessory, without having to pile on the jewelry. This embellished sweater I snagged recently is such an updated basic, and pairing it with my new coated jeans was an easy look for a chilly weekend afternoon in the city. See how I styled my embellished sweater and shop the links below to steal my look:

Trend Alert: Mohair

by The Perennial Style | Oct 29, 2014 | Style, Trends, Uncategorized

One item that’s making a huge comeback this season is the mohair sweater. Though you may remember this from your days in elementary school (Limited Too, anyone?), this fuzzy sweater is the ultimate staple you need in your wardrobe. Not only is it delightfully cozy, it speaks for itself and lessens the need for bold accessories. I paired my cropped mohair sweater with a plaid mini and my favorite platform boots for an ultimate 90s look. Weary about jumping into this trend again? Start easy with a fluffy pastel pullover paired with ripped jeans for an updated weekend look. See how I styled my mohair crop below and shop the links beneath to get my look!
