STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Bomber Jacket Buzz

May 4th, 2016 at 2:10am

Bomber jackets have been a huge trend this season and this Fashionista pulls off the look exceptionally well! It is now that time of year where the shorts are coming out and the sweaters are being packed away as the seasons change. A nice bomber jacket is perfect for the transition from spring to summer because it is lightweight and completes any outfit.

This Fashionista paired her bomber jacket with a simple shirt and a pair of jean shorts. She also paired the look with stylish boots that are perfect for going out with friends for a fun day, or for wearing to a concert, seeing as we are on the brink of festival season.

The bomber jacket that this Fashionista wears is the perfect look for a day around town. The shades of green and the writing on the back make the vintage look come together as a whole. I have seen the bomber jacket trend a lot this season, and have found that the satin jackets with unique writing are the most popular.

The jacket amps up the outfit, and paired with the boots, creates a grunge look. The cut-off shorts and top create a more feminine feel and lighten up the look. The bralette and studded purse are added details that tie the look together.

Gold jewelry was chosen for this outfit, which creates a more sophisticated look. Because there are hues of black, blue and white, silver jewelry would be acceptable as well. The necklace also complements the metal elements on the boots completing the outfit.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I’d say my style is versatile in the way that everything I have I can dress down for class or dress up for going out. I think it’s all about jackets or accessories you can add to the outfit to make it right for the occasion.”

    Hi guys I’m Erica! I’m currently a sophomore at Tulane majoring in communications and minoring in business. I am from Florida, but would love to live in New York City someday. My favorite season is fall (real fall not Florida fall), I like dogs more than cats, my favorite dessert is tiramisu, and I am a huge fan of Wes Anderson movies. I have always loved fashion and am so excited to be a style guru! I mostly stick to clean lines and neutral colors, although I do love to mix in a bold print every once in awhile. I follow Song of Style (Aimee Song) and Sincerely Jules (Julie Sarinana) on Instagram and love how they incorporate simple items to create a fashionable and versatile outfit. I love shoes, especially boots, and am always trying to find boots that can be worn throughout every season. My favorite item of clothing would have to be a great pair of dark blue skinny jeans that you can dress up or down. I also am a huge fan of accessories. Sunglasses and some simple rings or bracelets can make any outfit look chic. One technique I am planning on incorporating as a style guru this semester is the use of makeup, specifically a bold lip. I also want to use nail polish as an accessory to perfect a look that pops. Chiara Ferragni, also known as The Blonde Salad, usually wears a bold red lip and wears lots of print, so I will be trying to incorporate parts of her style into some of my looks for this semester!
