CONTEST - How to make overalls look CHIC

Another look I created for a contest on Polyvore! 

CONTEST - Chic in Overalls by juliacoejj featuring blue tops

Unfortunately, I don't own, nor do I ever really wear overalls, so this was a challenging one for me. The aim of the contest was to make the outfit look super chic, while incorporating a pair overalls! I chose a pair of leather ones, as I felt that it was probably easier to add great little touches such as the stylish pair of heels and fluffy fur coat! 

I tried to give it a slight edge with the pop of gold by means of the clutch and necklace.

To be honest, it makes me want to get myself a pair of overalls.

What do you guys think? Can overalls look chic?

Men's street style

Here's another 'set' I made for a Polyvore contest, this time, inspired by men's street style, which I'm totally loving at the moment!

CONTEST - If I were a boy... by juliacoejj featuring beige tops

I need a pair of boyfriend jeans in my life, and I'm on the hunt, so for now, I'm living my desire vicariously through this post. I teamed the jeans with a Burberry checked shirt, a sheepskin jacket and some black Timberland boots. 

Men really aren't given a great deal of attention as far as street style is concerned. If you make a search on tumblr or on the web more generally, about 98% of your results are going to be photos of women. It's understandable: the fashion industry is a world dominated by females and so men's clothing is naturally overshadowed by ours.

But if you take a real look, men are smashing it in the fashion department and are in my opinion, totally underrated.
