Inspired by A Pocketful of Polka Dots: EvaTrends Overalls
Ever since I saw Jennie of A Pocketful of Polka Dots style her Distressed Overalls from EvaTrends back in December, the seed was planted in my brain that I really needed to try a pair myself. But here was my problem…every time I have tried on any type of overalls, jumpsuit, or romper, what resulted was that dreadful front wedgie. You know what I’m talking about. It is not a flattering look. On anyone. But still I would try. Then I would give up. Then I would try again.
And then I saw Jennie’s overalls and noticed that they had a drop crotch. Not a trend that I am really all that fond of, but a trend that may just possibly allow for me to wear overalls without a front wedgie. So I hopped on over to EvaTrends to see what else they had and I was compelled to share some of my favorites in a wish list post in January which did feature Jennie’s exact overalls as well as the ones I am wearing here.
Fast forward to April and EvaTrends reached out to me to join them for my third collaboration. I did not hesitate for a moment to agree since I absolutely love their selection of unique and fun styles. Scrolling through the options of pieces that I could choose from, I was drawn once again to the overalls. I shared another wish list which again featured some of my favorite overalls including the ones I have styled for this post.
At first, I was hesitant to choose any overalls, still fearful that even with a drop crotch they would be too short on me. I am happy to say that they are not too short. They fit perfectly and just might be the most comfortable pair of pants that I own. My only regret in my EvaTrends choices with this collaboration is that I did not order three different pairs of overalls! I love them that much.
I was about to order the darker wash like Jennie’s, so as I sat undecided which would be better for Spring, I allowed my husband to make the final choice. He went with the lighter wash and when they arrived, I absolutely loved the distressed details combined with the faded denim for a super casual farmer-girl-chic style. That is a style genre, right? Farmer-girl-chic? When you pair it with a snakeskin print cropped top, black patent oxfords, and a bright red newsboy cap, I am going to declare that farmer-girl-chic is most definitely a style!
Now to decide on the million other ways that I can wear my new Marca Overall Dungarees! I am thinking tank tops in Summer with wedge sandals or cap sleeve tees with Chuck Taylors. And when Fall rolls around, a fitted turtleneck with combat boots or a long sleeve off the shoulder tee with heeled booties. The options really might be endless. And I really might need like a dozen more pairs!
If you have spotted anything you like from EvaTrends, be sure to use my code SH15 at checkout to receive 15% off your entire order. Pay attention to the measurements provided for each item that you are buying. A lot of their pieces are one size fits most so make sure that you fit into that “most” category before ordering. Also stay tuned to see how I have styled the other two pieces that I have chosen from EvaTrends. And do go check out Jennie and her fabulously inspiring style as well!
Have you tried the modern day overalls trend yet? It is quite the throwback look to my childhood in the 80’s but with a much more updated look.
Keeping it on the edge,

such a fun look, I personally ca not get on board with overalls. It all has to do with a bad and embarrassing thing as a kid.

Thanks, Stephanie! Isn’t it terrible how bad childhood experiences can haunt us for so long?
