Styling tips for an oversized look: Ensure a balanced ensemble
Mixing Old with New: A Guide to Stylishly Wearing Oversized Outfits
Welcome back, fashion enthusiasts! Today, we're diving into the world of oversized clothing, focusing on balance, proportion, and thoughtful pairing to create a dynamic style that honors both oversized trends and vintage charm.
Tip 1: Pay Attention to the Length of the Pants
When it comes to oversized outfits, the length of your pants is crucial. Make sure they hit at the right spot – not too long, not too short. Aim for a length that flatters your figure and shows off your shoes.
Tip 2: Show a Little Skin
Don't be afraid to show a bit of skin. Balance out your oversized top with a pair of fitted pants or a mini skirt. This will help create a harmonious silhouette and prevent your outfit from looking too bulky.
Tip 3: Try a Top with a Curved Hem
For a chic and stylish look, opt for a top with a curved hem. This will add a touch of femininity to your oversized outfit, making it more flattering and fashion-forward.
Now, let's talk about some wardrobe essentials that can help you achieve this look.
The Aritzia 80s Denim Shirt
Similar to the Aritzia 90s Denim Shirt, the Aritzia 80s Denim Shirt is available, offering a vintage yet modern twist to your wardrobe. Wear it in size S for a perfect fit.
Abercrombie Mid Rise Baggy Jeans
These baggy jeans from Abercrombie are a must-have for your oversized outfit collection. Currently on clearance under $40, they offer a comfortable and stylish option for balancing volume with structure. Similar options include Abercrombie Low Rise Baggy Jeans and Everlane High Rise Baggy Jeans.
Accessorizing Your Look
Accessorize purposefully with statement belts or slouchy bags that complement oversized shapes while enhancing your overall look. The Polene Paris Umi Bag, Mansur Gavriel Small Candy Bag, and Madewell Foldover Bag (currently 25% off) are great options.
Adding Modern Details to Vintage Basics
To give classic pieces a fresh, sculptural edge, consider adding modern details such as rolling up hems or collars. Mejuri Thin Dome Rings, Mejuri Daily Hoops, Mejuri Dainty Beaded Ring, and Roxy Gabbie Flip Flops are examples of modern accessories that can elevate your vintage look.
Incorporating Timeless Colors and Prints
Incorporate timeless colors and prints such as chocolate brown, leopard print, or white linen to bridge old and new aesthetics smoothly. A Handmade Pearl Necklace, similar to the Madewell Filosophy Pearl Necklace, can add a touch of elegance to your outfit.
Experimenting with Boho Oversized Looks
Combine loose, flowy silhouettes with elegant vintage accessories to create a unique, boho-inspired look. This will add personality and softness to structured modern clothes.
Remember, the key to wearing oversized outfits is all about balance, harmonizing textures and colors across eras, and adding individual touches such as subtle tailoring or modern accessories.
