Today one of our blogger’s, Sandoval, gives a few tips about his personal style for spring:
“If one thing’s absolute by now, it’s that denim work shirt have transitioned from “work” to no-fail chic. In fact, it’s become a transitional piece between casual and luxe style. And for those of you fashion junkies like me whose personal style is in the midst of these two, this a pretty amazing thing. The key to merging two distinct aesthetics and highlighting both at the same time is to keep things simple. Here I’ve paired a light washed denim work shirt with a pair of slightly high-waisted, cropped white trousers. Opting to keep the color palette on the neutral side and light really helps to establish a fresh and spring-ready mood.
The thoroughly buttoned shirt with slightly rolled up sleeves and cropped pants keep things modern, while the nude oxfords and a gold watch add just enough interest. The overall subtle approach really gives you room to take this look pretty much to any extreme. Add a thin belt in a bold primary color for a super trendy look or nix the dress shoes and throw on a pair of gladiator-style sandals to casual it up a bit more. No matter what you’ll still manage to keep an overall luxe feel as long as you keep it clean and keep it simple!
