Street Cred Style: A How To guide

Do you want to run these streets but don’t know how? Well it’s very simple, it’s all about looking like you know what you’re doing. A big part of that is your appearance - a.k.a your clothes. With these easy steps you will be running these streets by nightfall.

  1. Shoes

For the shoe you either want to stick with a punk rock look or a sportier feel. Tennis shoes are an option but aim for a more fashion forward tennis shoe instead of one made for running/training. Adidas have gotten more popular lately because they got with so many outfits. Or, try going for a lace up boot look that gives off an edgier vibe.


2. Pants

For the pants you can’t go wrong with distressed denim. No matter the color or wash, ripped jeans give the look a more casual feel while still looking like you run the show. It’s like a Yeezy ripped look but not as much money. If not ripped pants then try going for a camo pant. Yes, you can wear camo out in the street, it’s not just for hunting anymore. If all else fails go for black denim.


3. Shirt

For the shirt keep it simple. The shirt isn’t stealing the show in this outfit, rather being a supporting actor or working backstage to keep the show running. A t-shirt with a phrase or simple graphic will do the trick, or even play it safe with a solid. Anything that adds to the look without being center stage.


4. Jacket

Jackets are meant for street style. They layer the look and bring all of the pieces together. Bomber jackets are becoming more popular now. If you’re up for it, throw some patches on your jacket for more creativity.


5. Accessories

This is where you can add some icing on top of the cake! Accessories aren’t required but they spice up a look even more! Baseball hats are trending right now. Go for a hat that has a phrase or logo that you like. Suede hats are gaining more popularity as well. They add some more class to a typical baseball hat. Lastly, try throwing on some aviators because those make any outfit look badass.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
