Wearing Stripes at the Office
When dressing for the office, chose pieces that are on-trend as well as work appropriate. If you love stripes, try incorporating them in a fresh new way! Instead of opting for an ordinary stripped sweater or shirt, choose a stripped jacket or blazer. It’s best to select stripes that are vertical rather than horizontal, as this will make your figure appear to look wider. Style the look with neutrals such as brown or black bottoms, and crisp white button down shirt.
Classic Weekend Outfit
With the weather outside still being quite cold, we think this weekend’s outfit should involve layering! To keep your look fresh and stylish, choose a classic denim coloured jean and pair it with a lighter denim shirt. To add interest, pair the denim top with a light suede jacket. If you are heading outside be sure to keep warm by adding a long camel coloured wool coat. When picking a shoe, choose a grey knee high boot, which will look great against the denim! Add a pop of colour by selecting a brightly coloured handbag to complete the look.
Weekend Outfit: Model Street Style
With NYC Fashion Week ending last week, we took some off-duty model inspiration for our weekend look! We are obsessed with Gigi Hadid’s edgy, rocker style! To create an original and sophisticated look, try pairing a black turtleneck with a statement leather biker jacket. Select a slim fitting skinny jean to keep the look casual and chic. Be sure to accessorize with cat-eyed sunglasses, classic black pumps, and a black leather bag to complete your model inspired look!
Winter Weekend Outfit
With temperatures still being unbearably cold, try layering textures and styles this weekend! Chose a black leather biker style jacket and throw on an oversized wool cape. This look will keep things trendy while you stay warm! Pair these jacket options with a pair of jeans and black booties. Have fun with your accessories by choosing a brightly colored patterned bag and finish off the look with some sunglasses.
