Well, yeah. When I was a kid I may think about posting about overalls but now?! I don’t know. The fashion industry is as complicated as I ever imagined. I am saying this because outfits with overalls came out in the 90s, and requires to show up more for the following years.
So, that`s why I decided to create an ultimate guide with ideas for wearing overalls. If you are a man, I have good news for you 🙂 Today, you can read useful tips about men’s overall outfits as well. I have researched and found some amazing ideas. Now, ladies and gentlemen, let`s get into it.
How To Wear Overalls In Summer
Don`t think you can`t wear them in winter or fall. I just decided to talk about Summer outfits with overalls for now. But you definitely can dress them every season. However, most commonly we prefer to wear it in Summer.
First off, you can wear a basic tee underneath the overall. I mean the solid color top without any print on it.
The neckline is not so important. But still, you should know, the more cut your top has, the better. Overalls cover a pretty big part of the body itself. So, try to show off your skin more.
Another way you can try is to put on a cute crop top with an overall. In the picture, the woman actually is wearing one and I love how it looks.
Make an outfit with overalls and ruffle sleeve tops. You have no idea how cute can it be. Not only that, you will look very stylish. Unusual, I mean not a regular style t-shirt, will add more layers to your outfit. That`s what makes it so chic in the end.
Striped tops also pair with overalls very well. I don`t know why, but the outfit looks kinda comfy and stylish together.
Actually, I know why. Because, most frequently, overall print is very simple. It’s either a solid color or it`s just denim material. So, that way striped tops mix the prints and materials. That`s why…
What is Summer without a bodysuit?
Yeah, you may have no idea but this is a great way to create outfits with overalls. There are various types of them even in online stores. Btw, if you want to know which online stores are trusted check out my post about it.
But again, I wanna warn you. If you are going to the beach or on a weekend vacation, a bodysuit overall should not be a great idea. It`s definitely uncomfortable to wear two full-body pieces while you need to rest.
Don`t forget that you have graphic tees in your wardrobe. Yup, they are going pretty well with overalls too. Your look now will be more like a vintage style.
And since overalls were a big part of fashion history, the vintage outfit makes pretty much sense.
How To Wear Overalls Shorts
Choose the right one for you
The shorts’ size depends on your size. Different lengths of shorts will show your body parts in different ways. There is not any “must” rule to follow but if you are struggling to find your best fit, I have a little option for you. You can buy shorts with a length, (starting from very above your legs)between 7-8 inches (18-20cm).
Also, make sure you have loose-fitting overalls to be pleased with it maximally. I mean, you need to feel cozy while wearing overall shorts. And that also makes them edgier.
If you have a perfect body shape and you wanna show it, start finding overalls and shorts with belts. It will cinch your waist and that makes your outfit more dressy.
What To Wear With Overalls Shorts
The outfits with overalls, I mentioned above, are still working very well with shorts as well. But there are some things to consider before going out with overalls shorts. I am gonna share them with you.
Floral print tops make the cutest outfits with overalls. You should know it.
These two pieces express our femininity in a perfect way. I am not gonna talk much about it, just try it. You will immediately fall in love with it.
Dress up transparent tops (that`s also an upcoming trend) for the outfits with overalls. That will make changes little changes to your outfit style. When shorts are more for casual, cozy style, the transparent top will change the look into elegance and dressiness as well.
Cover some parts of your body to balance the style with shorts. If you wear full-length overalls then you have to think the opposite. Shorts show more skin so you can neutralize it by covering your neck with turtleneck tops. If your overalls cover your whole legs, you can show off more of your skin with cut out tops.
Adding a long blazer or poncho is another amazing (my personal favorite) idea. It balances the length of your full outfit. And believe me, it really works a wonderful way.
And the last but not least, wearing a bathing suit under the overalls shorts is a perfect, gorgeous smart idea. Even for the beach. It will show your outfit cozier, cuter, and cooler in summer. You need to feel cool in the hot weather, so there you go.
If you already have overalls short and using them, let me know, what is your preferred outfit in the comments. I`d love to discover more ideas.
Shoes To Wear With Overalls
Definitely sandals. If you want to show a powerful appearance, then high heeled sandals 😀 Another way, flat or wedge sandals are also OK. But while shorts make your legs slimmer, wearing high heel sandals makes you taller.
Add a more cozy appearance by wearing matching sneakers with overalls and shorts. Now your look is comfy, fit, and stylish. Whoala <3
It shouldn’t be a good idea to wear boots in summer. But you should know high knee boots also pair with overalls shorts outfits.
Fashion Outfits With Overalls For Men
And here comes what I promise.
First things first. You should know, the tips I wrote above are not only for women. They are very useful for men too. So, I won`t talk about the same things again and again. Basic t-shirts, graphic tees, and striped print tops are the common ways you can make outfits with overalls.
But I have a few more things you can wear with overalls too.
Since men wear shirts more often than regular tops, I recommend you to use them under your overalls. That`s a very stylish combination if you manage to match it by colors.
If you have a black overall in your wardrobe, try to put it with very shiny printed color tops. It comes about color balance again. And if you follow the tip, believe me, your outfit will take many girl`s attention 🙂
Keep in mind, wearing overalls with one strap makes sense for men. I`m telling you again, keep that in mind. If you wonder what`s that sense, I can tell you. It shows a more powerful appearance to man (don`t know why, but it does). And the man should look strong, agree with me.
And the last thing, to make stylish, comfy outfits with overalls is to wear a hoodie under it. That will now work in summer, but still, you can use it in almost every season.
That`s what I wanted to share with you. If you wanna check some other ideas, read this on complex.com.
