Name: Jasmine Douglas.
Spotted at: 17th and California streets.
Profession: Client services dealing with IRA accounts.
Favorite film: There are too many.
2013 jam: Fantasia’s new song, “Without Me.”
Style inspirations/icons: Nicki Minaj and Toya Wright. My friend, Saidella, has great style, too.
Favorite accessory: Earrings.
Favorite color: Right now it’s peach.
Style mantra: I pick out my shoes first and I then I pick out my shirt. I need shoes that are comfortable that I can get on the light rail with.
Shops at: A store called Debs, Ross, Burlington Coat Factory. TLA, or The Likable Assholes, is one store I shop at online. Also, Cupcake Mafia has fresh gear online, too.
A white iPhone and white headphones match Douglas’s white capris. Her pink-tipped manicure with her green blouse create a watermelon visual.
These circle earrings even match the circular bun hairstyle Douglas wears.
Style analysis: While many resort to office drab Monday through Friday, Douglas opts for a refreshing twist to summer gear. She dresses light and easy, and her lime green blouse and earrings make the outfit fun and energetic. Her look references icons that have a certain “swag,” or swagger. In short, this means they have their own personal style that creates their own aesthetic.
Always rock your own swag, Denver.
