How Do I Wear Overalls? Part Three

I live in Kansas, where the weather changes day by day and you can still manage to wear sweaters and boots one day but need shorts and tank the next day. While this outfit may be too warm for your neck of the woods, if you live in cooler temperatures, here's an overall outfit for you!

I started with a pair of dark grey overalls from Hollister, that were purchased for $10.00 from Marshalls. These overalls are different than most overalls. They feature a slimmer fit in the leg and are low rise, which is uncommon for most overalls. The straps also criss-cross in the back and button closed rather than snap with a buckle.

I'd classify myself as a style chameleon, but for this look, I decided to take a minimalist approach, while experimenting with textures. I added a velvet light grey shirt underneath the overalls. This shirt was purchased from Forever 21 for only $4.99. If you're gonna go for a minimalist look, I encourage you to play around with patterns and textures to make your look pop. You can even incorporate different shades of the same color in your outfit.

To accesorize, I included large silver hoop earrings, and several silver rings on my fingers. To play around with textures, I carried a white faux fur purse, from Charming Charlie's. I completed the look with my black heeled boots, to allow for a variety of neutral colors in my outfit.

Experiment with different textures and patterns in your outfits!
