Style Spotting: Urban Chic

I know that “urban chic” is not one of this fall’s known trends; I don’t even know if it’s called urban chic. I made that name up. Regardless, this tendency towards street-influenced style is really winning me over. It’s all about mixing casual pieces like sweatpants, maybe a sweatshirt, maybe a snapback hat, with coherent styling and dressier accessories – think a collection of bracelets, rings, or a really great watch like this super-personal Instagram InstaWatch by May28th. Basically, urban chic is made for the girl who wishes sweatpants could have a stylish moment and has a secret, intense affinity for hip hop culture and fashion, AKA me.

Need some inspiration? Scroll down, and tell me you don’t want to give one of these looks a try.

With a major in international business and years of being surrounded by ill-fitting suits and all the wrong shoes, she learned that the importance of fashion needs to be communicated to the world. To her, fashion is on the same level as charity work and feeding hungry children. Emily can be found frolicking the streets of her gayborhood enjoying the off-color humor of the gays.
