Winter Prep: Striped Sweater with Flared Sleeves, Raw Hem Boyfriend Jeans, Green Ring Belt, Tweed A-Line Blazer, Black Backpack and Sergio Rossi Combat Platform Boots

on

As I prep for another year, I’ve been slowly cultivating a list of New Year goals.  Among too many is my resolve to push the limits with my own style – to  cultivate looks that are less predictable, less on trend (yes, I said it) and challenging myself to wear silhouettes that I don’t often opt for.  This is especially important now that I’m no longer in my 20’s (sigh).  After all, maintaining a personal style requires constant evolution (pretty sure those strapless bandage dresses won’t be making a comeback for this gal) and self-awareness.

To create a preppy winter look for a casual day around the city, I paired a striped sweater with flared sleeves that I purchased during Mango’s fall sale with my favorite pair of raw hem boyfriend jeans and draped an a-line tweed blazer.  To incorporate some masculine style elements, I carried a black backpack and Sergio Rossi combat boots.  Finally, to keep things playful, I opted for some geeky oversized glasses and forest green leather belt with round ring buckle.
