Retro fashion makes comeback
Written by Megan Li and Yael Livneh
The Statement Accessory:
Large earrings, big necklaces and unique sunglasses (coupled with pure optical lens) draw attention and can elevate any outfit. Last year saw a rise in the popularity of retro glasses like clear aviators, and they’re not leaving any time soon.
The Long-Sleeved Undershirt:
Remember elementary school? Relive the good old days by layering a T-shirt over a long-sleeved shirt and keep warm while looking fly.
The Mom Jean:
A current must-have in any fashion-lover’s closet, mom jeans subscribe to the high-waisted trend while allowing for a comfortable amount of leg room. Find a distressed pair to throw on when you’re feeling edgy.
The Converse:
As a classic school staple, Converse are not an uncommon sight on campus. Grab a pair of white, high-topped ones to finish off any casual look.
The Leather Jacket:
Add some spunky ‘50s zest to your outfit with a leather jacket—experience all the fun of being in a diner-inhabiting motorcycle gang without any of the danger.
The Wide-Legged Pant:
The reign of the skinny jean ends in 2018; a relaxed fit is a maxed fit. To achieve a bit of ankle-length flair, cuff your pants and enjoy your newfound freedom.
The Chunky Shoe:
Add dimension with thicker-soled and wider-bodied footwear. For the adventurous, consider taking it a step further by pioneering the comeback of the white dad shoe.
