Add a Bang to Basic

We have all heard the saying "less is more" and have applied it to our lives in many ways; for example, having less friends can mean more benefits for you because of the possibility of less drama. Well, this season it has been applied to fashion. Whether you are going out wearing shorts and a tee shirt, a simple dress, or all black (like me), when keeping it simple it is imperative that you add a little BANG!! What BANG you add, now, is all up to you! Check out this outfit I put together to recreate the less is more look. I included knee high socks (found in my dad's closet) and a military jacket (which is actually a men's shirt from Target); without them my outfit is simple: a plain black crop top and a black velvet skater skirt.
