Streetstyle: get the faux-bob thanks to your winter coat
Although the bob is an undisputed classic when it comes to hairstyles, many women are reluctant to go for the chop. Lucky for you, we have a nifty solution to your problem: create a faux-bob by tucking your lengths into the neck of your coat.
Her hair. Our streetstyle pick has super long lengths and has no intention of cutting it short any time soon! However, from time to time, she likes to create the illusion of much shorter locks by tucking her mid-lengths and ends into the neck of her coat or roll-neck sweater. The perfect way to make the most of your long hair without sacrificing length.
Her look. Very chic and on-point. She’s opted for a 60s inspired mid-length skirt in a check pattern. On top, a black sweater and matching leather jacket make sure she stays warm during the winter season. Working this season’s layering trend, she’s gone one step further and added another layer in the form of a marl-grey duster coat, slung over her shoulders for an effortlessly chic finish. Dark knee high boots add drama to her structured outfit whilst creating a masculine edge.
Tip of the day. Make like our streetstyle wearer and allow a few strands at the front of your style to escape from your sweater. This will create the illusion of a sharp A-line bob. Get creative and experiment with your own faux-bob looks this season!
