We all want outfits that expresses our unique style, ...one that speaks all the style languages for us . But the dream wardrobe is the goal !
And building that dream wardrobe takes more than buying different pieces. It's mostly knowing how to pair and rework everything we've got. Especially the separates and the one-pieces.
Originally, they seem better when worn alone, but pairing separates like skirts, blazers, shirt and pants with one-pieces like jumpsuits, dresses and overalls can make for a pretty great style.
We picture you thinking ' Is there a woman out there who wakes up every morning, throws her closet open  and knows she'll always find something amazing in there to make her feel stylish, both inside and out ?! Impossible.'
Well it's totally possible if you follow our style inspo below. Ready?

Allow your wardrobe to express your lighter side:

For work, wear a button-down collared shirt under a dress for a chic office ensemble. Need a cover-up without the weight? Give your ensemble a laid-back effect by layering an unbuttoned shirt over a dress.
Also, try knotting a shirt over a sleeveless jumpsuit or romper to suggest an appealing joie de vivre.

Layering Continues To Be A Key Trend 

The  ultimate cover-up, a blazer literally goes over anything. Try wearing a blazer over a demure Victorian-style dress or over a strapless jumpsuit to lend structure and contrast to softer one-pieces.

Go-anywhere Pairing

Never underestimate the power of a kimono(see our previous blog post on the kimono, as an essential wardrobe piece).
This all-season piece serves a lot of options when you need to get out the door in a jiffy. The kimono can be worn as a one-piece dress with a belt or a wrap. It can be layered over your favorite dress, pants and tops as well.

 


You would agree now, that the dream wardrobe is totally achievable. Indulge yourself in these thoughtful options we've offered and let us know your results in the comment section. See you at our next blog post! bye now.

For some of us who couldn't wait for fashion weekend to arrive, the Fall  2020 Ready-to-wear runway gave us a run for our money!
How? well, Armani's had an audience-free show, Micheal Kors and Moncler canceled their events, and street style got an unexpected update of face masks and temperature checks.  And did you know that fashion print media, Vogue Italia, published their first-ever digital cover girl the March 2020 Issue?! yes they did.

However, hot topics such as sustainability in fashion, eco-friendly ethics, inclusivity, fast fashion and now the COVID-19 outbreak ( as expressed by Vogue Italias March Issue),  times in the style and fashion industry has changed.
It seems as though, the industry of editors, stylists, personal shoppers/buyers, models, designers, influencers may adopt the trendy digital approach to fashion as we know it.
our worry now is, how feasible will this trend be, seeing as fashion deals with more of human experience! Will this become a lasting or passing trend?
Can we find other ways to still communicate fashion, with the same sentiments?



On the bright side, digital fashion may be economical and ethical for brands such as using virtual supermodels like shudu (@shudu.gram), whose burnished brilliance and skin tone creates a perfect canvas to build up almost any wardrobe-worthy ensemble.





Designers are leaning towards sustainability.  Runway collections, consumer reception, and media influences are more conscious and sensitive to the environment, health, and social trends.

 

whatever your opinion is on digital fashion, people, garments and all, the industry is undeniably changing, and while it is not certain that the look and feel of real clothes on real models may appeal to your closet, digital no doubt has a starring role in fashion's future.

Ever wonder why white remains a classic in every lady's wardrobe? We did too and the result is a style hack of all time!

You have probably heard before now that your wardrobe reflects your personality so adding white pieces to your wardrobe can elevate your style and give it a classic finish. We cannot even overemphasize how invariably chic it makes your ensemble look.
Furthermore, white is an achromatic colour which basically leaves you with a blank canvas for you to add your personal touch to. Also, adding that white accessory or garment could switch up your closet from minimum to maximum as they are subtle, precise, smart and unique.
