    Stand out This Season

    Fall And Winter fashions to make sure you look your best
    Stand+out+This+Season

    Beanies and flannels and sweaters oh my! Considering COVID-19 is still in full effect, you cannot always show your off-the-hook style, but you can still dress to impress in your home and feel confident in yourself! This season brings new opportunities to show off the hottest items of the year. Here are some of the trendiest, easiest, and most affordable clothing items of the season. 

    Distressed sweaters lead the trend as one of the most comfortable ways to change up your look. These loose-fitting sweaters have fringed, ragged tears of fabric creating an extra flare. You can find these sweaters in many retail outlets including Target, Charlotte Russe, and even Walmart. Match up your look with some simple skinny jeans and ankle boots. No matter what pattern striped, solid black, or camo, the clothing item will definitely stand out. 

    Giving warmth and comfort, flannels give the best way to spice up your look. Flannels construct easy layering during the colder months. Every flannel has a different pattern and can create a completely different look when added to a simple t-shirt and jeans. The red and black basic combo of plaid has to be the most common form of flannels and essential to every closet. Almost every retail clothing store has a sensible flannel or plaid collection, especially during the colder seasons. Looking for a more comforting and simple outfit for a stay at home day but still want to have a bold style? Throw on an oversized flannel with distressed jeans and sneakers. 

    An outfit would not be complete without a stellar piece of jewelry. Large chain necklaces have made their way into 2020 and have taken over the season. Adding a simple hoop earring and light chain can add a huge confidence boost to your day-to-day life. Wearing jewelry and accessories can also show people your personality from six feet away! Additionally, jewelry always fits. If you’re insecure about trying items on and shopping for clothes, you can wear a simple black t-shirt with a bulky gold chain and a pair of eye-catching earrings. 

    During these difficult times, quarantined or not, putting some effort into your style radiates beauty. You have to expand your style! This season creates the best time to find your inner confidence and embrace your look. “Trendy” is not about looking your best, but feeling your best in the most accessible and comfortable items of the season.
