Cheaper Fashion Alternatives: Women’s Edition

Posted by & filed under Fashion, Features.

Here it is! Cheaper fashion alternatives for you all ladies out there! So first things first, who doesn’t want to spend at minimum but still look good? Truth is none. We always try to keep up with the latest trends but how many of them are we able to keep up with? So, we picked a few of the must-have fashion items that looks great itself and even better when styled. Here are the cheaper fashion alternatives.

The Boyfriend Jeans

What exactly is boyfriend jeans? Don’t worry ladies you can still have this fashion item even without a boyfriend. Apparently, boyfriend jeans are supposed to look or at least feel like the jeans a woman might borrow from her boyfriend. These jeans have a fairly relaxed fit, usually straight legs that may or may not be cuffed at the bottom, and they should look a bit big on the person who is wearing it.

The Plain White Tee

It’s amazing how just a plain white tee can change the whole look of your outfit. Not that plain after all! Wear it with your favourite pair of jeans, finish it with sneakers and you are ready to go casual. Add on a blazer and you are ready for a formal event. How convenient! Although looking plain, the price of this fashion item can be very costly. On the left we have a plain tee from Acne Studios and on the right we have an alternative for you from H&M.

The Denim Jacket

Making you look bomb, this piece can cost a bomb too! Initially, denim jacket was not first invented for the cool kids. This jacket was invented, like so many of our other iconic pieces of clothing, for the working dude. Giving the wearer a mischief and rebellious look but still keeping it fashionable. As we all know, denims are never cheap. The fabric, the fit and the  attention to it’s details. However, we did find an alternative for this fashion item. Might not the be the cheapest but will worth every dollar you pay.

The Sweatshirt

Don’t be confused by the name. Many have often mistaken sweatshirt as a sweater and vice-versa. A sweatshirt is made with sweatshirt fleece, that is finished on one side and has a soft, fluffy nap on the other. The sweater however, is simply a knitted garment worn to cover the torso and arms. Here we have a piece from Diesel Black Gold on the left and one from Pull and Bear on the right.

Nike debuts Hyperfr3sh QS

Posted by & filed under Sneakers.

It is rare to see Nike create a sneaker that scrimp on the swoosh branding. This time around, Hyperfr3sh will be the first of its kind to have a miniature version of the logo on the heels and usage of flywire on the upper of the shoe.

This Hyperfr3sh looks to be an off-court version of the Hyperdunk 2015. They both share the same technology and features. However, Hyperfr3sh goes without the performance upper and it replaced by a more casual sense. This lifestyle type model can be expected to be the basketball version of Roshe.

It comes in three colorways, and they will be available at Hoops Station and other selected Nike retailers.
