Hello loves! I hope you are all having a lovely Wednesday! I know I am. I have been having great fun pulling together some outfits from the one and only American Apparel. A few days ago, a reader wrote and asked if I could help her come up with some combinations of AA clothes, since she gets a tad overwhelmed when trying to sift through the articles herself. There really are so many options, variations and choices of basically, t-shirts, tanks and stretch pants, (what to pair with what!) so I totally feel her pain! But, after some picking, plucking and tweaking, I designed three ensembles—with a few accessories thrown in for some flair—that I hope you will enjoy! Let me know what you think, I would love to hear! SPxx
OUTFIT #1
I really like the simplicity of this look. Actually, I basically own this outfit! I always feel super flirty and fun when I slip on this short, swingy skirt. And, when paired with black tights and closed-toe oxfords (i mean, who doesn’t LOVE oxfords!) as shown, the combo becomes winter-appropo. Bonus: the material of the t-shirt is totally sleep-wear soft!
Available at American Apparel…
Unisex Tri-Blend Short Sleeve Deep V-Neck, $22
Opaque Pantyhose, $14

OUTFIT #2
This get-up is a bit more provocative and daring, but still super fun! I am personally coveting each piece and think this would be the perfect outfit for a night out dancing with the girls. The flat, sensible boots help tone down the sexy-slinkiness of the ballerina-inspired dress, and you can feel a bit more covered up when you layer with the tank, scarf and tights. The hat is just so urban downtown, and a nice masculine touch to a mostly feminine ensemble.
Available at American Apparel…
Nylon Tricot Figure Skater Dress, $48
Cotton Spandex Jersey Bra-Cami, $19
Opaque Pantyhose, $14

OUTFIT #3
Isn’t this outfit so upbeat and fun? I love tossing bright hues into the mix, especially in the winter months, when blacks and grays begin to dominate the wardrobe. My favorite piece is the scarf, which is new from AA and is called the Circle Scarf, and can be worn in a plethora of ways—you can wrap this baby ’round your neck or shoulders! As I’m sure you have noticed, I love this versatile belt, it seriously goes with almost everything. And the shoes? Yes, they may be banana-colored, but what a way to make a statement! So, slip them on, grab your tote and shades, and you’re ready to go!
Available at American Apparel…
Stripe Pocket Frock, $41
Bull Denim Woven Cotton Cities Bag, $28
Zoe Split Sunglass, $75
California Fleece Sunglass Case, $5

i am not joking when i say i wear the grey v neck three times a week (and not just for sleeping). it is the best and everyone should own at least one (in every color). ha. thanks for the help, i too get a little overwhelmed in aa, because i usually want everything and can’t make a decision.
