It is a no-brainer that everyone wants to wear what the celebrities are wearing. But streetwear is taking the world by storm, making celebs wanna wear what fashionistas like you and me are wearing! 

Streetwear is a style of fashion that emerged from youth culture and urban environments. This perfectly Gen Z style is often associated with casual, comfortable clothing and draws inspiration from various elements, including sportswear, hip-hop fashion, skateboarding, and Japanese street fashion.

The Payppy team went through the look books to find 3 times the street style was a huge slay and brought you tips on how you can inculcate a tinge of this chic yet ” The New Cool” way of dressing up in your routine. 

1. Casual, comforting, chic

Streetwear is known for its comfortable and relaxed styles, often featuring oversized or loose-fitting garments. Simply pair a jogger pants with an oversized tee. Want to make it look more intentional and put together? Match the colour of the tee and the joggers and add some chunky jewellery for a statement look. We loooove a good neon palette since it makes you look instantly cool and catch attention from everyone on the street! 

2. Graphic tees are the norm

Many streetwear brands prominently display logos, graphics, or distinctive designs on their clothing. Nothing defines streetwear better than bold and eye-catching graphics on either the front or now becoming popular, prints on the back of the tees! How do you do this well? Try pairing a graphic oversized tee with loose jogger shorts or plain pants for a more finished look! Accessorise with a wrap-around pouch, bag or just go with silver jewellery! Sneakers are a must! 

3. High fash with low fash, is a street fash

Streetwear often blends high-end fashion with more accessible or mainstream pieces. This mix of luxury and casual items creates a distinctive look. This one requires a little more effort than the previous ones but it is worth a shot if you’re going to look like a billion dollars, but like it is a habit to you! Chillax, you don’t need a birkin bag or a jimmy choo heel. You can simply pair a basic outfit with anything extraordinary or solid coloured in your wardrobe. Like a neon jacket, or a colourful shoe, or a set of expensive looking eyeglasses or even a futuristic looking handbag.
