Some high- fashion trends can be hard to pull of in an everyday look. Unless you live in LA or New York, it’s not exactly easy to wear sky high creepers or a big furry coat without getting a few judgmental stares. Here are my three favorite fashion risks that the average person can make without standing out too much.
1. Fun colored lipstick
This is by far my favorite fashion trend because it’s a statement that isn’t too showy and easy to match to your outfit. Instead of pairing your outfit with a bright red or pink, try grey and purple hues, oranges, greens and even dark blues and blacks! I would suggest making your outfit plain, but still fashionable. I would not wear jeans and a plain tee with this look, go for a vintage band tee and a blazer or a fun and bold patterned dress with this look! You usually can’t find these kinds of colors at a drugstore or even Sephora so I recommend visiting limecrime.com if you aren’t sure where to look for these killer hues. It’s affordable, the packaging is cute and their pigmentation is great. My favorite color is the purplish grey “chinchilla” but the less daring could also try out the peachy “cosmopop” or “d’lilac” the pastel purple that’s sure to make a statement.
2. Baby bangs
I currently sport this look and am in love with it. For all of you who don’t know, baby bangs are basically a straight across fringe that range anywhere from being cut about halfway between your eyebrows and the top of your head to being so short they are almost non existent. Although not everyone loves them, they can look good on anyone and are super easy to maintain. Baby Bangs were Audrey Hepburn’s staple but didn’t really get big again until stars like Paramore’s Hayley Williams, Lady Gaga and even Béyonce rocked the looks in the past couple of years. If you have an edgy side but still like to be girly, Baby Bangs are the perfect alternative for you. They can make you look younger, are very feminine but also edgy and fun. Plus they look killer with shorter hair and nicely drawn eyebrows.
3. Statement sweatshirts
Sweatshirts with fun sayings on them are a great way to vamp up your casual look. Not only will you look great, but you’ll make people laugh and definitely get heads turning. Keep the rest of the outfit simple to let the sayings shine! Wear leggings, sneakers and a beanie for a casual look or try pairing it with a leather skater skirt and knee highs for a more playful outfit.
