The world was sent into a tizzy when Sofia Richie Grainge decided to transform her style into what we now call quiet luxury. This simplistic, rich-looking aesthetic has had fashion people, including myself, in a chokehold ever since, and I don't see it letting up anytime soon. Am I a follower, consumer, and fan of this trend? I am… or was. Over the past year or so, I've watched my closet swell with neutral basics, timeless accessories, and one too many pairs of ballet flats. My colorful, printed, nonsensical pieces that once brought me so much joy took a back seat to make room for my new luxe look, and now, I am feeling some type of way about it.
I started getting extremely bored with my wardrobe—and fast. I might have looked like a rich, chic, polished lady, but I was not feeling like myself. And with that, I am announcing to the world that I am officially over my relationship with the quiet-luxury look. I am ready for fun statement pieces again and the styling challenges they bring. I'm ready for strangers to stop me on the street and ask me where on Earth I found such a crazy pair of pants. I'm ready for my look to stop looking like everyone else.
For the record, I am in no way shaming the quiet-luxury look. I mean, I was living in it like five days ago. I just reached a place of fatigue with it in my own life and thought I would bring you along as I attempt to find my sense of personal style again. What do you do when you're ready for an identity change? You shop. I was on the hunt for anything loud, different, and "me." The good news is I found so many items. The bad news is I'm now about to go bankrupt, but that's a personal problem. Scroll down to shop some of my favorite statement pieces on the market, and get ready to want them all.
