Indianapolis-based Adrienne documents her outfits over at Sweenee Style. She has eclectic, playful style, and is not afraid to stand out. Our blogger likes to hunt around for affordable pieces and enjoys remixing her favourite items. She is also into sassy shoes, high heels, quirky jewellery and huge hoop earrings.
Adrienne is wearing full-length black leggings with a blue and white striped button-down tunic. The tunic’s asymmetrical hemline creates a dramatic effect, while the crisp blue and white liven up the black colour palette. Our blogger has added a skinny belt to define her waist. Tucking the leggings into black high-heeled peep-toe booties lengthens the leg line. A waist-length black leather jacket with lots of textural interest provides hard edge. The banded ties on the booties echo the oversized tassels on Adrienne’s clutch. Extra oversized gold hoop earrings are Adrienne’s trademark, and add extra spunk to her outfits.
Our blogger jazzes up a sleeveless knit black midi dress with a denim vest adorned with quirky patches and brooches. Pairing the body-con scoop-neck dress with an oversized long-line vest effectively de-bombshells the outfit. Adrienne doctored the vest herself, and it fits right in with the playful side of her style. Adding ankle strap pumps that mix a graphic black and white stripe with a soft pink floral amps up the fun factor even more. Three bracelets subtly add more colour. By putting up her hair, Adrienne’s oversized hoop earrings get an opportunity to shine even more.
A relaxed high Summer look consisting of denim shorts and a sleeveless button-down. Adrienne dresses up distressed casual short shorts with a crisp white shirt. The cut-out details on the sides create visual interest and make the shirt extra breezy in hot temps. Flat lace-up sandals with eye-catching colourful pom-poms add a quirky touch that makes me smile. Large hoop earrings in turquoise and orange — Adrienne made them herself — peek out from under her wavy ‘do to bookend the sandals. Adrienne’s doggy Cash in his cute plaid stroller knows he is stealing the show!
An on-trend dress-over-jeans outfit. Adrienne has layered an olive midi shirt dress over skinny jeans. The cognac obi-style belt creates waist definition and adds structure. Leaving part of the buttons unbuttoned creates an alluring effect. Rolling the dark wash jeans showcases her high-heeled sandals with laser cut-out detailing. Opting for earth-toned footwear that matches the belt ties the look together. The leather cuff bracelet and brown and cognac clutch amplify that effect. Adrienne’s wavy hair is a little shorter here and adds a romantic touch. Fun cocktail rings, a long statement pendant with contrasting emerald stone and our blogger’s trusted hoop earrings finish off the look.
Combining a baby-doll dress with a denim poncho and over-the-knee boots makes for a fashion-forward look. Here, Adrienne uses the crisp white pleated dress with stand-up collar as her base layer. Keeping the length above the knee tempers the volume of the fun frock. It also creates an exposed area of skin between the top of the boots and the hem of the dress, which showcases the style of the fab suede boots. Keeping the colour low contrast against her skintone lengthens the leg line. You don’t see denim ponchos all that often, and I love how this short-sleeved version adds instant casual drama. Adrienne’s trademark earrings, her lovely smile, dark wavy hair and raspberry lippy are the beautiful finishing touches.
The collarless faux fur coat with vivid patchwork pattern is undoubtedly the star of the show. Adrienne has kept the rest of the outfit in black and white, which makes the exuberant colours pop even more. Underneath the eye-catching topper our blogger is wearing a white button-down tunic with peplum hemline. She’s layered over a black cropped tank top that tempers the volume of the shirt. Black jeans are tucked into high-heeled biker booties with large gold grommets for a touch of Hard Edge. Our blogger’s romantic curls with a nod to the 1920s add feminine softness. Brownish-red lipstick and big silver hoops complete the look.
