  • 2020 TREND UPDATE

    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.

    THE NEW WORKWEAR

  • HOW TO STYLE A CARDIGAN

    HOW TO STYLE A CARDIGAN

    Cardigans have been seen at the forefront of most fashion catwalks this winter season. 

    Some might find cardigans boring but if you know how to style cardigans they will quickly become your ultimate wardrobe essential. And this is why I prepared a quick style guide on the 2020 cardigan trend. 

    Ps: Handy to take it with you when you go shopping 🛍 

    Here are 10 cool Cardigan Looks to choose from this winter:

    Look 1

    Why settle for just one knit when you can wear two? Wear one as a dress and one as a jacket for a layered look that’s perfect for cold weather.

    Look 2

    Go bright with an oversized cardigan for a bold statement.

    Look 3

    Layer up. Just simply layer it over a slim turtleneck and tights.

    Look 4

    Consider wearing a more oversized cardigan as a dress for a modern take on the sweater dress.

    Look 5

    Take that cardigan look to the next level by adding a belt on top, nipping in your waist with even the chinkiest of knits.

    Look 6

    There is nothing we love more than a simple cardigan, tucked into the top of a pair of jeans, for an effortlessly chic Winter uniform.

    Look 7

    When wearing a cardigan as a dress, go for the high-low look with a pair of vintage-looking sneeakers on the bottom.

    Look 8

    Crop tops are not just for summer: reach for a shorter cardigan silhouette to pair with a dress.

    Look 9

    Wear an elongated cardigan over a pencil skirt for a variation on proportion that takes your look to the next level.

    Look 10

    Seek styles that are fashioned more like a cropped jacket, allowing the seasonal essential to do double duty in your transitional wardrobe.
