Trend Alert: Overalls

Trend Alert: Overalls

No, I’m not kidding, I promise! Overalls have definitely eased their way back into high fashion and it’s not too surprising, since grunge is back in full force.

Last time I wore overalls was in the 6th grade and quite frankly I was obsessed about them. I wore them to shreds.  Literally… When they got too short on me, I made them into a short version of overalls and kept wearing them, until my mom secretly threw’em out.* Sigh* I think the reason behind my attachment to the overalls was due to the fact that it was a gift from one of  my grandpa’s travels . I loved my grandpa very much, so anything he gave me was extra special.

Will I wear them now? Not sure, but something tells me my adventurous side might want to try this trend in a whole new “ adult”  way- rolled up with heels? Hmm…I think it might work.

What do you think? Bring back the Overalls to mainstream fashion- Yay or Nay?

    Ok Mimi I have to admit for years I was in love with overalls! But, they were super baggy and not very cute. I still love them and feel you can make them ultra cute if done right!!

    I think it’s all about with what you pair them.. overalls can also look very glamorous!

    Hi there-I adore the Nicole Farhi ones, denim ones need to be glammed up I think, otherwise you could be mistaken for a construction worker, LOL!!

    Overalls have changed so much over the years, some make you look squared but others are chic and most of all comfortable. Love the Ralph Lauren’s. I don’t think I’d wear them in other fabric than denim though, but that’s just me.
    My verdict is yay for the overalls trend.

    Thanks for the regular visit. I am so proud of your blog

    Ahh… That brought back lots of good childhood memories! I’m loving the one by Jean Paul Gaultier… I’d wear that kind for sure… =) I think if it’s styled properly, with heels and accessories it might actually look quite cute! =)
