Javiortiz.com: The Formal Hoodie

Hoodies, from casual to formal!

One of the things I like to do often is to take a casual look and turn it into something a bit more fashionable and luxurious. Even thought sometimes it can be a fashion risk or a fashion fail, usually works out better than I expect.

Recently, I got this lovely Tommy Hilfiger red hoodie in the mail and I have been in love with it ever since. Is not only the perfect color to wear during this holiday season and is also very soft and warm. But hoodies tend to be an item out of my style preference and for that, they can be a little hard for me to style them, till now!

For this outfit look editorial, I decided to wear this Tommy hoodie the same way I would normally wear a sweater. As you might know by now, I don't really wear jeans often and prefer to stick with silky pants. I paired this hoodie with these Topman black pants to contrast the bright red color of the hoodie. To make it a bit more luxurious and fashionable, I decided to tuck in the hoodie into my pants for a more elegant style.

Continuing adding an elegant style to this look, I wore these black INC international Concepts shoes. One thing I like about these shoes is the fact they can be worn with a dressy or not so dressy outfit looks. And for this particular look, they add the perfect balance needed to set this look all together. To step up it a bit more, I decided to stick with the mini oval sunglasses trend, which adds a very fashionable touch.

Coming out with this idea, I can now wear a few new hoodies I recently got in the mail and I can't wait to style them the same I did with this one or who knows, maybe I could come out with a different way in making them a bit more elegant. That's all for today and I'll see you all on my next post!
