There is no arguing that dusty pink is fast becoming a go-to colour and will have you looking bang on trend in an instant. I have to admit though that this was probably the first time I consciously wore something pink, deviating from my usual inclination to wear dark colours.
For the longest time I’ve been delaying this post because I’ve had nothing to say about this look other than that I really just LOVE this outfit. Writers block is a real thing also!
Ever thought of rocking those bomb heels/ankle boots with a tracksuit? Um, probably not, but it’s a 2016 and oh what a time to be alive. The rise of the ‘athleisure’ aesthetic makes it totally acceptable AND très chic to wear your sportswear with formal wear. In this post I’ve recreated a look from one of my favourite designers Vetements by sporting a two piece tracksuit with boots and a trench coat. You can also switch up the look by just wearing the track pants or top separately, whatever you’re comfy with. To top it all off you can dress it down just as effortlessly by putting on a pair of trendy sneakers.
Keeping it clean is the fundamental rule when trying out a minimalist look. To be a minimalista, go for fits that have little detail and clean lines, also try to keep things somewhat monochromatic. Minimalist styles are all about unexpected proportions and don’t be afraid of mixing textures. All these elements add to the architectural influence of a minimalist look.
I’m pretty sure you might argue against my title and affirm that the saying actually goes as follows; “out with the old, in with the new.” I would then just remind you (if you’ve been following this blog) that we don’t dabble with convention around these parts.
So I’ve been meaning to try out this trend for a little while now (about a couple of years lol) ever since I saw it on Rihanna, but I just didn’t quite get it. Anyway Rih is like the Queen of slay so she can literally get away with what us plebeians can only dream of trying.
I thoroughly enjoyed this shoot and for the concept I thought I’d try out a sports luxe fit. This is my take on the look and I love all the pieces of this fit and I’m wearing one of my favourite jeans.
Okay first of all, this kimono-esque two-piece suit is everything and then some! I’m obsessed with the colour and crocodile skin detail. It oozes class and the wrap style jacket sets it apart from the conventional suit jacket.
To achieve this look, I had to do things slightly differently. Instead of raiding my mother’s closet- as per usual, I decided to peruse through my Dad’s for the perfect shirt. Absolutely love this fit and the oversized shirt gives me that ‘boyfriend’ look.
