A southern lass is known for her distinct style. There are some things endemic to the southern wardrobe. We plan to discuss some southern fashion essentials and a few handpicked accessory options you should seriously consider. But first, let us get the fashion perspective right.

 

Southern fashion is not as restrictive as some folks believe. It can be experimental and does fusion rather well. Once a bit restrictive, it has now taken a more contemporary, bold form. Some things like blingy jewelry is no longer considered a Southern staple. Yes, there is a greater preference for them but today fashion jewelry across the world can be big on flash and shimmer. Southern fashion remains big on comfort, not ready to sacrifice it for the perfect fit. Expect this among the women too. Southern styling can be more unstructured and might chase bright colors more. It is also about wearing it big without worrying too much about creasing…not untidy, just relaxed. Minimalism is found in some southern fashion must-haves but overall, muted shades is not the real Southern way of dressing. Here, are some more southern fashion essentials that you should own to rock the real Southern girl thing…

 

1. Perfect Pair of Jeans: Basic without Regrets!


It does not get more basic than denims and southern denimwear has a simple rule – you can wear it anywhere, for however long you want and without any regrets. Jeans are at the core of southern fashion. This is perhaps one aspect of southern styling that has not been overhauled and why would you do it? A perfect pair of jeans is an underrated necessity. Well-crafted, American-made denim has been given the spotlight it deserves by southern designers like Marc Nelson denim (Knoxville) and labels like Raleigh Denim. We know they are doing it right because the shoppers are northern, eastern and from all around, all directions!

 

2. Sparkly Accessories: Keeping it Bright!


We started the discussion saying that southerners are not averse to what is now labelled as blingy accessories. However, they have been doing it long before hip-hop subcultures and fashion categorizations surfaced. We look at Dolly Parton or Loretta Lynn, and instantly realize that these women did not mind their fashion accessories to grab the limelight. It is about making a statement and hence, life-sized sparkling accessories are good.

 

3. Tank Tops: Less Cute, High on Sass


A tank top seems like the perfect summer-wear and southern fashion is quite liberal here. Liberal and a bit in-your-face. Expect southern-inspired tank tops to carry mischievous taglines. This sass, no matter how subtle, is considered typical of southern styling. We recommend trying the southern charm wear collection this season. Explore tank tops in a wide array of colors, with a wide range of application, from attending PTA to shopping for groceries. 


4. Eye-Catching Prints: Match it with your Persona


Southern fashion is not a stickler for what is termed as in-season trends. It comes with a dose of self-expression. This is why eccentric and sometimes loud patterns make it to T-shirts for women. Expect much more than the standard dose of pastel shades in southern apparels. Colorful patterns that get you noticed at the shopping mall or in a room is the southern way of doing it. Again, there are no rules here – you have the freedom to choose prints that at some might call outlandish or weird but then, who really cares if it makes you feel good?

 

We continue to groom our collection with the latest in fashion wear for women. Expect more exciting designs, mostly boutique creations that are least likely to be found anywhere else. We provide the perfect blend of irresistible pricing and unique prints mated with fine fabrics.
