I have a confession to make.......

I have a confession to make.....you may think of me differently after hearing it, but you should know I’m still the same person.  Ok here it goes.....I love a double denim combination, wow that feels good!  Seriously though I think double denim can look super stylish when done correctly.  Think back to Britney and Justin in the 90’s, don’t ever try to replicate that look and you will be fine!  

I personally like to go all out with a dark blue denim shirt, buttons done up all the way, with matching skinny jeans, but if you don’t feel that’s for you there are actually many ways you can style this look.  First you can try different contrasts with denim so perhaps go for black denim jeans with a dark blue denim shirt or jacket.  If your not sure about 2 denim pieces why not try a jumpsuit or boiler suit, a trend that isn’t going anywhere fast, and once you get the toilet situation down they are actually really very comfortable!  If you are still not convinced why not match a denim look headband to your denim shirt, a small step but noticeable.

As with all styling the key is to feel comfortable, not everything will be your cup of tea and that’s fine, thank goodness we all like different looks, wouldn’t it be boring if we all looked the same.  Styling is all about having fun and you can do that however you choose.  So if you choose to rock a cowboy hat complete with a denim corset that’s ok, you won’t ever get any judgement here.  Equally if you choose to rock a simple double denim combo I’ll bet you will get plenty of silent high fives, as deep down we all love a bit of double denim.

A girl can never have enough jewellery

  Accessories can make or break any outfit-true story.     Throw on a pair of jeans and a white t-shirt, well that's just fine but add a pair of huge fabulous statement earrings and you have just stepped into the style zone.   There are lots of tips to dress for your shape, for example a classic triangle shape should try and avoid long necklaces that end at the  hips as it will draw the eye to that area, but you know what, I say if you love it and most importantly feel comfortable in it go for it, the world is not going to suddenly end!     The most stylish thing anyone can wear is confidence and if you have that then you have nailed the art of style.   If your not really an accessories gal, try something simple like a sparkly brooch on your jacket.   So whether you enjoy earrings in the shape of ice lollies or a classic pearl necklace-get those accessories out, it will give your outfit a completely new dimension.  Double layer rubber necklace, Oliver Bonas, £29.99.

Capsule wardrobe

Image
Do you ever open up your wardrobe, bursting at the seams and just feel like collapsing into a heap on the floor as you have nothing to wear?  Do you feel a tad silly having those words come out of your mouth when your partner simply replies with a roll of the eye?  Yep, don't worry you are not alone, we all do it. A capsule wardrobe might be the answer to your prayers but where do you start and what exactly does a capsule wardrobe consist of?  I always thought it was a bit of mythical term, a phrase that stylists used but actually meant spending hundreds of pounds to fill your wardrobe with a few 'classic' black and white pieces. Well, lets break it down a tad.  The term was coined by Susie Faux, the owner of a London boutique back in the 1970's.  According to her a capsule wardrobe is a collection of a few essential items of clothing that do not go out of fashion, such as skirts, trousers, and blouses, which can then be teamed with numerous other seasonal pieces.  In t

Sustainable fashion.......what's it all about?

Image
This is a phrase that is thrown around a lot right now, but do we know what it really means?   D o we know how to apply sustainability to our wardrobes?  What difference does it make what's in our wardrobes?  There’s a few terms we should be familiar with when thinking about sustainable fashion. Eco-fashion – how our wardrobes impact the environment.   Slow fashion – this is where we need to slow down on  following trends!   The average piece of clothing is worn just 14 times, so it’s time we increased the longevity of what we wear. Ethical fashion – the ethical treatment, pay and occupational health standards of garment workers, and the effects it has on their community. Sustainable fashion – the umbrella term for all of the above!   Generally sustainable fashion is all about choices, your choices.   If you want to start making a difference there are lots of things you can do.     Step 1 – Have a wardrobe de-clutter.   Go through your wardrobe and be ruthless!   If you have items
