February 2012 Lookbook: Put a Collar on It
This look is part of Omiru’s February 2012 Lookbook series, which builds upon our 16-Piece February 2012 Capsule Wardrobe. See more information about this look.
Detachable collars have been on the style radar since Miu Miu Spring ‘10, and they’ve steadily been migrating from the province of fashion stylists to the Real World. The beauty of these detachable collars is that they finish off your look by adding visual depth - without the bulk of a full shirt. Here’s how to get the look:
1. Start with a solid foundation - a grey oversized chunky knit sweater over denim leggings.
2. Put a collar on it to dress up the sweater. The gold sequinned collar adds texture and color to the grey chunky knit.
3. Glam up the look with serious accessories - a pair of buckled military boots grounds the look, along with a hard edged metal bracelet.
4. But then add a bit of fun with an animal print clutch and a pair of bright red sunglasses for a pop of color.
