HOW LONGLINE CHANGED MY CLOSET

Where has this style been all my life??

 

 

The trend started slowly, but now it’s taking over. Everything from vests, to jackets, to sweaters, to tunic-takeovers. 

And I’m leading the charge! I love this style! Not only because it is cute and a great style to have to top off your outfit, but because IT’S FLATTERING! 

I’ve always been pear-shaped, so when all stores sell are cuts that crop my body right in the middle… well, that just doesn’t look very good! Longline doesn’t do that. It lengthens. It hides things 😉 And it’s sophisticated!

Listen, I’m almost 30-years-old! I no longer want to wear things that look like I am trying too hard, nor do I really even want to see that on other people :-/ 

The fall season is when longline comes in full force. Sweaters and vests are going to be taking over this season and if you have one or two good pieces in this style? You’re good to go!

WALKING INTO FALL LIKE…

I wish I had this outfit when I was going back to classes in college. 

It’s always that awkward time of year. It’s technically getting closer to fall, and the vibes are definitely going that direction as well, but the temperature? Still pretty warm! So how do you make that transition from summer dresses to autumn sweaters without sweating profusely all day? 

This dress is not only amazing for spring and summer, but I absolutely love it for the fall as well. It is so easy to accessorize and it doesn’t scream “warm weather”. Yes, it’s white and yes… there’s a “rule” but I’m pretty sure the only people who really follow that rule are stuck in the early 90’s. Or earlier! White jeans, maybe. But I think if you do it right, you wear that white, girl! I got you!

Another reason this outfit works so well going into fall is because of the shoes! Nothing screams fall like a good pair of rich brown leather shoes. They aren’t boots, they aren’t flip flops, they are the perfect offspring that will keep you fashionably cooler in those awkward summer-not-summer days. And I cannot wait to wear them with other outfits when it in fact does feel more like fall! 

If you don’t have a staple jean jacket, get to work. In my eyes, you could add a jean jacket to any summer outfit and it would automatically be a transitional outfit in my eyes. I’m not even going to admit how long I’ve had this jacket because… well… it makes me feel old. But it works! And with everything! Sure you can get one of the distressed longline jackets (which I have too so no judgment), but if you want just one jacket and are trying to simplify your closet, then a standard jean jacket that fits well is where I suggest you spend your money. I’ll be sharing plenty more looks that feature these versatile gems in the future. So keep an eye out!

Another thing that I love about this dress is that it is under $100!! And since it is a piece that you can wear from the beginning of spring until the weather is just too cold to show your legs in the fall, you’ll get MORE than your’ money’s worth.

STUN ‘EM IN STRIPES

I promise you won’t look like a referee 

These pants were a risk, I’m not going to lie. Then I tried them on for the first time and oh…my.. gosh did I fall in love. Not only are they beyond comfortable but the stripes add a stylish pattern that isn’t overwhelming! I absolutely love this outfit and how fun and flirty it is. If you’re looking to impress a little special someone during a night out? This outfit will do the trick 😉

The wide-leg trend is one that I absolutely love! I have always loved this look and was just waiting for it to come back into style. Now that it has, the options are endless! 

One of my favorite attributes of the trend is just how flattering it is. The high-waist + wide-leg cut of these pants accentuate a smaller waist and hide things that you might not want to be seen 😀 I am one that has larger legs and thighs… and I blame field hockey for that! But, these pants hide those trouble spots and show off the areas that I’d rather people see.

Rocking this in the summer? Try it with strappy black heels, but if it’s getting closer to the fall maybe try pointy-toe pumps! Either way, you won’t see them too much because of the cut of these pants. Which can also be a good thing if you’re like me and procrastinate on getting a pedicure :-O

This tee is also one of the cutest ones I have in my closet. It shows off just enough with high-waist pants that it is fun and flirty. But not enough that it makes me feel uncomfortable. Another reason I love the height of these pants. There’s embroidery of the word ‘babe’ on the left side that adds a hit of style and fashion that helps this tee stand out from the rest. And it’ll do the same thing for you!
