NEW TRENDS: SEC game day fashion and how to do it right

It’s a known fact that the two most important things when it comes to an SEC game-day are football and fashion. This year, more than ever, showing off your outfit of the day (better known as an “OOTD”) has been trending on TikTok and Instagram. Keep reading to find out what is trending this game-day season from the experts, along with some of our favorite places to shop in Tuscaloosa.

Words from a fashion Influencer

Are you looking to step up your game-day attire?  Look no further, we found out what is trending… from local Tuscaloosa fashion influencer Natalie Davis. We asked all of the hard questions about where to shop, what’s trending and some of her favorite pieces this season. Here’s what she had to say:

“I’m definitely seeing more diversity in the outfits that people are wearing. While this is true, I’m still seeing many girls wear cowgirl boots and bandanas or neck scarves this year. I think the cowgirl boot is starting to be offered in more colors and finishes and with added details like sequins that make it a fun addition to game-day outfits. Silk neck scarves and bandanas are a fun way to make a neutral outfit have a pop of crimson.”

The Inside Scoop from a Boutique Stylist

Wanting to look straight out of the fashion magazine this coming game day? Lucky you! Here is the inside scoop from a boutique stylist at Tuscaloosa’s Lucca Boutique:

“I feel like leather is pretty big every year, but this year I’m also seeing a good bit of tweed two piece sets and dresses. As well as cowgirl boots paired with game-day outfits. This year it’s more than just white cowgirl boots, but a lot of metallic colored boots- which is so much fun.”
