Hail Mary! It’s Casual Friday ya’ll, meaning blue jeans
are allowed on the premises for all my corporate members. But for us non-corporate goers it means switching up our day to day look for a cozier
approach that doesn’t quite resemble our average day to day look? I know you hear me
up in hurr’!
My more comfy CF, (Casual Friday) approach required very
little style recalculation seeing that I simply took old staple pieces and
rocked them in a new way! Exhibit A: my massive collection of worn-in
sweatshirts. I’ve taken a
liking to cutting 3 quarters off the sleeves or at least up to the elbows, and
snipping away the fitted band along the waist line, (although this sweatshirts band was
spared). There’s something refreshing about the sweatshirts no fuss new fit? I suppose it's the relief in ones wrists and waists from those
bloody fitted bands, or the fact that your dingy hoodies and crew-necks are transformed
into something cool and fun to wear again!
Exhibit B: the super
duper flared jean. You might remember this trend from your school days. The
extra flared bells that all the girls used to sport? Well, I never quite
matured out of that trend and brought my bells out for a visit. Paired them
with my favorite patina’ vintage boots and fatigue vest and rocked those bells
like it was 1999! Although CF is casual, try experimenting with your casual
wardrobe! Take your staples and wear them different ways or dust off your most aged
and beloved items and let them see the light of day again. Just because they're dated on the fashion trend-lists doesn’t make them unwearable – for all we know
you could be the ultimate trend resurrect-or!
