B Chic Owner Gives Back-to-School Fashion Tips

With school starting up again Aug. 26, some students may be starting to shop for their fall wardrobe now. 

Erica Malhotra, owner of B Chic, had a few suggestions for teenage girls shopping for August.

  1. Dark wash skinny jeans. Malhotra said B Chic offers more than 20 jean lines in the store, so there are many shapes and sizes to choose from.
  2. Solow pants and Sugarlips tank tops. These items are comfortable and versatile. "Girls like to be casual (at school) and then wear those to work out," Malhotra said.
  3. Statement necklaces and long necklaces. "Gold seems to still be the trend," Malhotra said.
  4. Printed jeans. Malhotra said these are becoming more popular heading into the fall season. "They're just in every fashion magazine," she said. She suggests wearing a pair with a plain top or T-shirt.
  5. Maxi dresses. These, too, are versatile, but you won't have to wait to get started wearing them. "You could wear that now with a wedge and then, going into fall, with a jean jacket," Malhotra said.
