The Transition from Summer Fashion to Fall Fashion: My "Street Chic" Look

I love Polyvore.com! It's a great site to play with for stylizing outfits and focusing on individual pieces, while putting pieces together for a great combo. (You can search for items by designer or just the piece in itself.)

What I did: I started with these 80s-inspired gray jeans, then found the strapless top before moving onto specifically looking for a turquoise bag (I love pink and turquoise together). I wanted some more edge, so I looked for this sporty-tough black jacket. Yet, still wanting to maintain the femininity that the pink bustier blouse brings, I couldn't resist the black heart danglies.

So this is my transitional summer-fall outfit I would call "Street Chic." While I wouldn't wear this outfit to work at PlasticSurgery.com on a Friday-jean day, I would definitely enjoy hitting a downtown pub or an LA fashion show in this look.

If you could change a few pieces around to make this outfit yours, how would you do it?






* This outfit combines the styles of various designers, such as Coach and Forever 21.

I love the look. The only thing I would change is the jacket--well at east the jacket length. I like them to be a little longer =)

I like long jackets, but I like the long-blouse-under-the-short-jacket look. Now that I think about Leeann, you rarely do wear shorter jackets. Interesting how we all stylize our outfits differently...
