HOW TO STYLE THE "NON STYLE-ABLE"

Tuesday, February 25, 2014

Style is what separates one individual from another, that's what fashion is all about diversity and variety shown through colors and patterns. That is why I wanted to branch out of the "trend plateau" and go around the rules to break the monotony in the everyday "fashionista" lifestyle.

  • PINK ON ORANGE
Who says these two colors are non match-able in an outfit? It might be intimidating because they are two bright to pair together and many of us would say that an outfit like this would be overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be when we pick the right cuts and design then put them together, they can look amazing and extremely unique, as well as separate ones outfit from the crowd.

  • GOLD OR SILVER? OR BOTH TOGETHER!
Many people say that ether you accessorize with gold or only with silver, and that it is "banned" to wear them combined, I think that mixing these two shades of metal are what makes the mixture so amazing, the contrast between them gives a very interesting boost to a boring and elegance to a bold outfit.

  • CASUAL/URBAN CHIC
If you feel like experimenting and bringing your outfits to a certain edge of couture, then go for casual elegance, that is the boldest in my opinion from the previous two i mentioned, don't be afraid to pair glam with the usual "on the go" piece that you feel the most comfortable in.

TOP 50'S FASHION TRENDS WE'LL LOVE THIS SEASON

Fashion is a very dynamic industry that allows the people to make their individual statement through fabric, colors, cuts, patterns etc. Fashion trends always ether come back or become a classic feature of all time, that is why I have decided to share what my opinion on how the most influential era in the world has enriched the current fashion trends and raves.

  • THE UNDER THE KNEE SKIRT
This piece of fashion art has been on top of the list on many runways and an inspiration to many well known designers around the world, because it stands out with such old-school class and sophistication that makes a woman sensual and attractive to others. To make it suitable for a contemporary woman, fashion experts have added a big dose of flair by adding pastel and bright colors to make any woman stand out among the crowds.



  •  THE A CUT BLAZER/COAT
Even though the 50's are one of the eras that made the classic tench coat a signature item of every classy woman, the A cut coats are also what compliments the figure of most body types yet doesn't exclude casualness and makes a woman's outfit look seamless but still put together, especially if the fabric of it has a smooth texture and bold memorable colors, which are significantly more fun than the classic tan or black.


  • THE TIMELESS HATS AND SCARVES
Hats and scarves have always been the easiest way to spice up a dull outfit or the most simple method to look like you put effort into styling your outfit when you really didn't. There is only one rule to follow when styling a scarves with an outfit, which is make the scarf the center of your outfit, so the funnest part is to choose different patterns and colors to make the scarf ''the star of the show'', and then of course keep the rest to a minimum.  
As for hats, they have always been a statement of dome sort, always gave a woman's outfit some mystery and ladylike component no matter what style is, and what is even better they are an all year round accessorie whether your having a bad day or just want to amp up the ''chic'' into a particular clothing combination.
