Wet Hot American Summer

Hello! I decided to take a bold style risk with this look by incorporating a piece of vintage lingerie into my styling. I thrifted this vintage bodysuit a few months ago and instantly fell in love with its vibrant red color and feminine lace details. I took fashion cues from Wet Hot American Summer and the seventies in styling the bodysuit.

I wanted to focus on creating a look revolving around patriotic color, subtle sex appeal and classic seventies nostalgia. And pulling out my only pair of denim in my wardrobe to style with the bodysuit was definitely the way to do just that. I purchased this classic pair of high-rise denim a while ago at Ashby and recently updated them with a lil fringe DIY. I love how the DIY instantly refreshed their style and I can't wait to start wearing them more again.

I accentuated my frayed denim with a statement pair of denim platform heels. Their denim texture, wooden platform and chunky silhouette practically scream "seventies" and earn them a special place in my wardrobe as well as my heart. I played up the vibrant red color of the bodysuit with a swipe of red hot lipstick and a vintage red Budweiser bandana worn as a necktie. Mod white sunglasses and a vintage golden watch perfected the Wet Hot American Summer vibes.
