Citizens of Humanity

For my styling post this week, I chose the Citizens of Humanity Avedon Skinny in Axel for my weekend look. They are a clean pair with a great fit and are pitch black, the darkest that I have owned. I would say that the color palette of this look was inspired by the mood the cloudy weather has been making me feel. I have always been a fan of layered looks that look like you just threw everything on and can easily pair any bag with, whether it be a satchel or backpack.

I paired the jeans with an R13 leather vest, Saint Laurent belt, Brian Lichtenberg sweater and a pair of Nike Dunks. With every piece being virtually black, I wanted to break it up a bit with the silver in the belt and the blues in the shoes. When I thought of this outfit, I had the casual “borrowed boyfriend” vibe in mind. The juxtaposition of wearing the sweater slouchy and vest oversized with the fitted jeans helps keep the look tough without sacrificing a feminine feel. How many of you girls would wear a look like this?
