Fashion Super Bowl: boys vs girls

I'm definitely that friend in the group that's like "Go Sports!" and can name about 5 professional football teams. Sorry... but I do enjoy a cold beer, buffalo wings, and those cute costumes (someone edited this to say jerseys but like, come on, they're costumes), so I'm always down for some Super Bowl fun. I might be there for the commercials but at least I showed up.

In an attempt to be more connected to America's past time (oh, that's baseball? UGH. I literally don't get sports, SOS) I've been binge-watching Friday Night Lights and trying really hard to pay attention to who is even playing in the Super Bowl. The real battle these days though, regardless of The Patriots and The Falcons, is the style game. Let's see if we can pick a winner?

Bump & run

We remember a time when we'd be like "Is it appropriate to wear sneakers?" Now-- the answer is always yes. Who do we think is capitalizing on the sneaker trend better and more fashionably? I think this one might go to the girls.

Run out the clock

We love our smart watch but there's nothing quite like a classic timepiece. We're all super guilty of using our phones for checking the time these days, but we do tend to favor a menswear-inspired watch. I think the boys might take this round.

End zone

When I think about getting in the end zone, I think of my bed (take from that what you will). Fashion isn't always about comfort, but comfort doesn't mean you have to sacrifice fashion! No matter what we wear to bed, we always find ourselves reaching for our boy's PJs. One thing we can both agree on? Our OnePiece onsies.

Projections

OKAY Trendy Trendsersons, here are our picks for this year's upcoming trends! I think we'll have to wait to call this one. Good to know chokers aren't going anywhere (ought to earn you a Red Flag on the football field) but we've certainly spent enough money on them that we're glad they aren't ready to be retired. Also happy that our favorite blush-colored "Millennial Pink" is here to stay through the spring. The guys are rounding out our projections with a bit of Windowpane Check.

Trends

While Bardot tops and shoulders for days were the look 2016, keep your eyes out for the one-shoulder trend in 2017. A little too safe for you? The modest can check their reservations at the door as we all slip our bras on over our shirts this year. What are the Kardashians doing to us? If that's a bit too outside the box for you, feel free to steal your boyfriends bomber.

MVP

Denim

Whether you're #TeamPatriot or #TeamFalcon, I think there's not denying that this year (and most others) the MVP of your closet is our go-to DENIM! Denim is one unisex trend that ensures we're all winners this coming season.

Denim

Ladies can get on board with the ankle-skimming hemlines of Spring as well as embroidered flowers that appear to be popping up just about everywhere. Guys keep it classic and cool in black skinnies or sticking to what they know in some relaxed-fit jeans.
