Under Construction

// The Look // Blouse– LF, Denim Jacket– Thrifted, Boots– Nordstrom

This look is super classic and simple in terms of the pieces as well as how they pair together. Although the denim jacket and off-the-shoulder tops are quite common items on their own, you rarely see them layered. I really liked the contrast of the ruffly and denim texture, as well as the looser fit blouse versus the more structured and stiff jacket. I completed the look with a pair of black denim jeans in order to shift the focus towards the top and also to maintain a casual fall outfit style. This editorial is called Under Construction, because as you can tell it was shot at a construction sight. I chose this location for two reasons, one being that the yellows, reds, and deconstructed feeling really goes well with the look, but also the symbolic significance. Like the construction site, we’re constantly reshaping and creating ourselves. Personally, I am constantly under construction, whether its improving the content of my blog, developing my personal style, or enhancing my attitude and purpose in life. For example, I am always looking to improve my outlook on life in many ways, from my communication with other to the way I think. I hope that you guys can likewise reconstruct flawed aspects of your life, and even if there aren’t any flaws, know that there is always room for improvement.
