    2020 TREND UPDATE

    As the year progresses, so do the hottest styles and there have been plenty of fresh looks to try this year. Here are my 7 favourite (and wearable!) key trends from AW/20 fashion weeks.

    THE WIDE BELT

    These thick belts are officially back and everywhere from high-end designers to high street brands. The key to wearing it is to think about proportions.

    CREAM COLOUR SLOUCH BOOTS

    Sitting just below the knee and crumpled with every step, keep it slouchy with these funky boots. This cream colour can be worn with almost every outfit. Wear it with a white T-shirt OR under a button-down coat OR make them stand out with a black dress OR oversized blazer.

    PREPPY

    Think schoolboy-chic. Consider a tight OR a loosely tucked sweater into (long) shorts. Combine with high knee boots OR offset by the dainty earrings for a modern look.

    EVERYTHING OFF-SHOULDER

    Slouch your jacket or coat off the shoulder for an effortless off-duty look. Use layers underneath a cardigan for a modern take on this trend.

    WIDE LEG TROUSERS TUCKED INTO BOOTS

    Tucking your straight leg trousers into boots puts a funky spin on the classic outfit, and adds a subtle punk twist to your ensemble. Whether you prefer combat to cowboy designs, you can find the perfect fit to match your personality.

    FAUX-FUR
    Faux-fur is more than just a trend. Its prominence on the runways is symptomatic of the fashion world’s growing environmental awareness. And AW/20 trend proved its versatility.

  • 3 Terrific Benefits of Hiring a Personal Stylist

    3 Terrific Benefits of Hiring a Personal Stylist

    Imagine opening your closet and finding the right outfit instantly. Then walking into a party and getting complimented on your dress.

    Imagine having a stylish set of clothes and accessories ready for you to use during the week. Sounds, like a dream come true, doesn’t it?

    Personal stylists are turning this dream into a reality for thousands of people. From the rich and famous to the average Joes ―the benefits of personal styling make everyone’s life easier. That’s because they ensure that you look presentable and have a well-put-together wardrobe at all times. Not only does this make it easier for you to get dressed but it saves your time and money too.

    Let’s look at the wonderful benefits of hiring a personal stylist:

    1. Ending Your Quest for the Perfect Dress

    Ever looked at your wardrobe and didn’t like what you saw?

    We’ve all been there! We’ve got a tendency to create a uniform for ourselves. It could be anything from getting the same shirt in multiple colors or sticking to the same color palette. Even though this habit is comfortable for you, it does get tricky to dress up when everything looks the same. That is when a WARDROBE DETOX comes handy.

    With a personal stylist at hand, you won’t face this problem. That’s because they curate wardrobes by choosing pieces that are comfortable yet different. Plus, they have a knack of styling the regular outfits in a whole new way.

    2. Put Your Fashion Foot Forward

    Do you have a busy schedule?

    Whether you’re a nine-to-fiver, a top executive, or a homemaker―your crowded planner might keep you away from fashion updates. That means you won’t know anything about trends, sales, or the hottest brands. Now, not knowing these things isn’t the end of the world.

    However, knowing this information can ensure that you make an impression wherever you do. If that’s something you want then consulting a personal stylist is the best way to go. They’ll give your wardrobe or a full STYLE MAKEOVER if you want. Or connect you with a list of outlets that sell trendy clothes that suit your sense of style.

    3. Take over Your Shopping List

     Are you the kind of person who doesn’t like shopping? Or do you fall into the category of shoppers who suffer from buyer’s remorse?

    Shopping for clothes can get tricky! It’s especially true if you’re going through a transition phase (e.g. promotion or graduation) or don’t have the budget to splurge. A PERSONAL STYLIST can be a big help in these situations.

    Here’s how:

    ·      They save you time and the hassle of shopping.

    ·      They’ll connect you with affordable yet trendy brands.

    ·      They’ll ensure that every new outfit is worth the purchase.

    It’s a Wrap

    In a nutshell, the benefits of personal styling are infinite. From stress-free dressing, styling tips to shopping solutions―they cover it all. Plus, having them by your side will give you time to focus on other areas of your life. Don’t take our word for it, see HERE what people say about us.

    Transform Your Wardrobe, Transform Your Life

    ‘Transform your Wardrobe, Transform your Life’ is not a cliche but exact words from our client Susan, who left us a heartfelt video testimonial after experiencing both services from Style-And-You: Wardrobe Detox and Personal Shopping.

    Here is what she said:

    “Hi Natalia. I just wanted to thank you for the most fantastic experience. From the minute you arrived here to help me go through my wardrobe, to when you took me out shopping, I have had the best time. 

    You have transformed my wardrobe, my life… I know what colours to wear when I am going out. What to wear, what my body shape is, how best to wear things. 

    I have just had the best time and I cannot recommend you highly enough. You are wonderful. Thank you so much.”

    Style-And-You founder and a personal stylist Natalia Macri showed Susan a unique way of cleaning and transforming her wardrobe, which indeed changed her life (in her words). This wardrobe transformation was followed by the personal shopping trip to the stores to complete Susan’s wardrobe with the new and exciting pieces that were missing.

    It was a great day, filled with excitement and laughter.
