| Stripes with Denim Overalls are in this spring |
Dress like an Artist
Do you want to dress like an artist? Check out all these fashion bloggers, models and artists who all wear stripes with denim overalls. This is an easy trend to wear at any age. If you are not into overalls, you can easily swap those for a faded pair of denim jeans or even more conservative navy pants for that springtime nautical style.I am just happy I can go straight from the studio to the grocery store without embarrassing my children because dressing like an artist is in!
Backstory
So y'know I am an artist and I love that overalls are in style. I have had the ones I am wearing at left for a few years and the striped shirt I have on from J Crew is also not new. So, I was thrilled when suddenly I started spotting this trend EVERYWHERE online.I think I may refresh my look with a few new striped t-shirts and although I have a few denim overall shorts, I would much prefer ones with a longer hemline like the looks shown here. | |
| Spotted this look on Pinterest and saved it to my fashion trends board immediately. You can find the items for sale on Svpply |

This is a supposed to be the teenage version of Sarah Jessica Parker? What made her so cool is she was not a traditional beauty who compensated with very expensive shoes and larger than life personality. Her nose was not perfectly straight, she had a mole on her face and her naturally curly hair was dyed blond. This teenager they have looks like a Disney Princess with her perfectly turned up nose and curling iron ringlets...just sayin. } |
