Monochromatic look: classy ft. sporty

Fall outfit inspiration
Mixing classy and sporty
I would have never imagined the fact that classy and sporty could work so well together! I had always thought that both of these styles should never be mixed and that wearing them together in one outfit could be a big mistake! But as I do like to experiment with my style and as I have been seeing this combination quite a lot lately ( starting from fashion blogs, lookbook.nu etc. to street style), I did decided to play with different outfit elements and try to make my point of view on this mix of two styles!
I received this black & white plaid coat from Lovelywholesale approximately a week and a half ago, but I have managed to wear it at least five times (!) already! I do love the coat and I have received tremendously great feedback from others about it as well, which I think just proves how great it is! The blouse I am wearing in this look is also from Lovelywholesale, whereas the necklace is from Dresslink. The classy side of this outfit is the coat, the blouse and the necklace, whereas the sporty side are the sneakers and the bag - both from H&M! The sneakers are still available and I strongly recommend them ( very comfortable & qualitative), but I think that the bag is gone as  I bought in the start of the summer on sale!

Nekad nebiju iedomājusies, ka sportiskais stils tik labi ies kopā ar klasisko stilu! Vienmēr biju domājusi, ka šie abi stili ir diametrāli pretēji un, ka kopā tos sasaistīt būtu diezgan liela kļūda. Bet tā kā man vienmēr patīk eksperimentēt ar savu stilu un tā kā dažādās interneta vietnēs ( blogos, modes ziņu portālos, lookbook,nu), kā arī uz ielām aizvien vairāk un vairāk pamanīju to cik šī kombinācija kļūst populāra, es arī nolēmu nedaudz "paspēlēties"!
Mugurā uzvilktais melnbaltais mētelītis neilgā laika posmā ir kļuvis ļoti mīļš un to no Interneta veikala Lovelywholesale saņēmu vien pusotru nedēļu atpakaļ! Šajā laika posmā mēteli esmu uzvilkusi jau reizes piecas ( vismaz!) un saņēmusi patiešām daudz atzinīgus komentārus un komplimentus! Blūzīte arī ir no šī paša interneta veikala, savukārt, kaklarotu un auskarus saņēmu sadarbībā ar Dresslink. Klasiskais manā tērpā ir šis mētelis, blūzīte un kaklarotiņa, savukārt sportiskais ir šīs melnbaltās sporta kurpes, kā arī šī lielā masīvā soma - abi divi no H&M! Kurpes vēl ir pieejamas ( un tās noteikti rekomendēju, jo tās ir ĻOTI ērtas kā arī kvalitatīvas), savukārt soma vairāk nav pieejama - to pirku vasaras sākumā uz atlaidēm!

  15. Completely obsessed with your pairings of this fit! The black and white up top and then more black towards the bottom. You are a natural at the elegant sportswear game. I have always been a fan of mixing unexpected things. Bravo! You look tremendous :)

    1. Oh, that is a truly big compliment because, honestly, sportswear is VERY out of comfort zone, therefore, I am very happy to hear that I look natural in this style!
      Thank you for your comment!

  20. Isn't amazing Maddie how well sneakers go with more polished looks. Who would have thought so. A few years ago you would have made my head hurt trying to convince me of this!

  22. I completely agree! I was so shocked when I discovered people mixing classic, classy/sporty looks together. It's tricky but works well if you get it right (which you did so effortlessly!) I love that coat, probably would have worn it as much, too! I love that the outfit works so well with those sneakers but I could totally see you wearing it with a pair of black or nude pointed toe heels! x

  24. I loooove this outfit! No wonder it reminded me of Korean street syle, since two of the items are from Asia, haha! I also like the sneakers, but I am still suspicious of H&M's shoe quality, I will probably check Geox though for something similar. And your make-up matches the look really well, too :)
