STYLING: HOODIES

I must admit that I have lately been embracing a more Normcore style. Choosing casual and plain looking jeans, hoodies and tops over flamboyant pieces. Now some shriek when they hear the word “Normcore” fearing that it would become an unfortunate fad, which it did. However, when you are a young individual on a budget and constantly on the go there is really no time to deliberate on ritzy getups.

Alexander Wang Spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear

This year marked Alexander Wang’s 10th year anniversary, and the designer displayed what he is best known for: his casual-yet-edgy street wear. In attendance were Vogue’s Anna Wintour, and Mary J. Blige, Lady Gaga, and Kanye West among others. A short film was played at the end which took the attendees back to Wang’s very first show.

Some of Wang’s current whereabouts is a collaboration with DoSomething.org, a non-profit which encourages young people by providing grants for projects that make an impact, and the campaign features multiple well known faces in the entertainment industry. He has also teamed up with Beats to bring back Beats by Dre X Alexander Wang, where 90% of the proceeds go to the above organization. And lets not forget about his partnership with Evian, where he made an exclusive bottle packaging which was available at his ’16 show. Now if only he could design the official uniform for the Olympic Games the United States would surely be the best dressed. Don’t you think?

ALEXANDER WANG X H&M

The highly anticipated Alexander Wang for H&M has finally been fully revealed. Before it’s reveal we were only able to catch a few glimpses of the collection as seen on Rihanna during New York Fashion Week last month. But finally what we’ve all been waiting for has finally been unveiled. The collection includes cropped bra tops, sweatshirts, leather joggers, mesh paneled leggings, scuba dresses, parkas, and beanies. Save the date, November 6th, when the collection will land in 250 stores worldwide and online at hm.com. Here are some my favorite looks from the collaboration.
