the half tuck











You've got to love a trend that anyone can pull off. The "half tuck" is just that. While other looks and styles that take over runways, blogs, editorials and street style may be intimidating for some (mixing prints, piles of jewelry, unconventional layering, etc.), the half tuck is a way to up your style cred without taking much of a risk. The look is literally, half casual and half formal. I love it because it utilizes the cinched waist that a tucked-in shirt gives, but avoids looking stuffy. It gives an outfit a very "styled" look, without making the wearer appear like they're trying too hard. My personal favorite way to rock this look is colorblocked Even better is a chambray/denim colorblock ensemble. The half tuck keeps you from looking like a cowboy, but stops short of looking too hipster.
