CURRENT OBSESSION : how to pull off the overalls look without looking like a house painter or BDSM lover

I can't stop looking or searching for the perfect pair of overalls. Obviously, the 3.1 Phillip Lim are the perfect incarnation of everything I've ever wanted. And obviously, they are way out of my price range. If you don't have a boyfriend working in finance busting your ass to save some cash like me, i strongly recommend you get your credit card and make an investment in those. You can find them here



For anyone else that will dare trying this trend, I've also made my little research for you. A great way to not spend to much is to find yourself a vintage pair. You probably won't find leather ones but jeans ones you will cut and rip will make a killer look !! For those ones who are not patient enough like me to vintage shop, Nasty Gall offers this one for a reasonable price. Then again, not leather, but its a great fit. For my vegan friends, ASOS offered this faux-leather dungarees that are pretty dope, not gonna lie.

As for how to wear them, i strongly recommend a loose sweater, preferably white, for the winter. Once the sunny days are upon us, a cropped top with stilettos will create a killer look ! Always roll them up at  the bottom to accentuate the shoes. Treat your overalls like they are normal pants, even leave the panel detached if you are into that !

3.1 Phillip Lim pre-fall 2013... and why am i going completely bananas

What is soooo exciting about this is that i NEVER get excited for pre-fall collections. It usually is like that salad you have before the big steak is coming. You'll eat a bit cause it was part of the table d'hôte but you're leaving most of the place for the main course.... 3.1 Phillip Lim usually makes me wanna starve myself for days so when THAT meal comes, ill even have dessert twice. Not so healthy but just soooo good. Not disappointed at all. Not only are all his looks wearable but they are also all street style pictures material. Pre-fall usually is also a lil cheaper than the main collection which I'm totalllyyyy ok with. Easy chic everyday pieces like the zipper sweaters in electric blue and nude and the leopard ensemble make me very happy about.. well, what will be out next year. Ahhh stay patient people !
