Every year during fashion month, there’s a new style trick that everyone adopts. Last year, it was wearing your jacket on your shoulders. This year, the shoulders are still the focus, but now everyone’s wearing their jackets and shirts off their shoulders. Sure, it’s not the most practical trend considering the shitstorm, er snowstorm, that arrived just in time for NYFW, but honestly, sometimes you have to sacrifice when something looks this cool. Admittedly, it’s one of those annoying fashion trends that is supposed to make your carefully calculated outfit look all nonchalant and casual but takes lots of effort and work. Getting the right layers down underneath and buttoning the shirt just enough and then keeping it perfectly positioned off your shoulders isn’t easy. That’s why I’ll probably be trying the jacket version, since I end up looking like a hot mess anyway as I try to get out the door with the baby, dog, dry cleaning and millions of other bags in my oversized puffy mom coat. (Thank you fashion for making my Sunday mess-of-a-mom look somehow fashionable, street style queens!) Still, these street stylers make it all look so easy.
