While out to dinner one evening at Chuck’s in Ko Olina last week (such a luxury to eat al fresco in January!!), I came across a lovely sixteen year-old, who had a very cool outfit on — fitted dark-wash skinny jeans, a peach silk blouse with black detail, and grey suede wedges. I would describe her look as polished, a little preppy, yet with a nod to vintage. Her ensemble was topped off by a charming pixie haircut and a fabulous druzy headband. (gotta love bling for the hair!)
In chatting with her, I learned that she owns about 15 different headbands, and wears one just about every day. While the pixie and the headband are definitely on-trend, she really makes it her own with her wardrobe choices. The complete effect is someone with a strong sense of personal style at a young age. Awesome!
I wonder if she gets that great sense of style from her mother.
Undoubtedly, Emily!
Do you think there is an upper age limit for this look? OR is it just for the younger gals?
That’s a great question, Maureen. I must say that I’ve been seeing this mostly on the young gals (teens/20’s), but there are exceptions to every rule, right? I think you’d really have to try it on an individual and see if it goes with their personal style without looking like they’re trying to look too young.
I like it!!!!
