Happy Tuesday! I can’t believe it’s nearly March, the year is just flying by. The season is beginning to change and my mind is starting to focus on getting pieces that I can transition in to spring. That said, this week I appear to be drawn to black.
I have been eyeing up &OtherStories for months and after a quick browse, I realise I really love their stuff. It’s a little pricey, but as I’ve said before sometimes you get what you pay for. These days I’m definitely buying less but better.
I really want to feature style tips and ideas. My body type is “inverted triangle” so anything A-line, v-neck or waist cinching tends to work well for me. Let me know if you would be interested to read more structured posts on styling for you body type.
I am desperate for a cream denim skirt for summer. I’m really drawn to neutrals at the moment so this pencil style one would go with a lot of things. I would pair this with a cream blouse and do the whole monochrome thing.
Of course I can’t decide between two very similar skirts. I love the asymmetric cut and fringing which adds a little extra detail. I’m thinking a darker top and those Chelsea boots I mentioned earlier.
This blouse is just gorgeous. I love the jacquard print which adds a more luxe vibe. When working with all black outfits, texture and pattern are both excellent ways to make your look more exciting.
I think this top would work great with black jeans or leather trousers, but these high waisted black cutoffs would be my choice, with a statement heel of course. The trousers need to fit like a glove then I’d tuck the shirt in to create a cinched silhouette.
Resisting the urge to purchase this kimono style dress is super hard. The wrap over style is likely to be flattering to most. I love the contrast stitching which takes away the boring black dress factor. I see this as being super versatile. You could pull on a roll neck and tights for the weather right now or go bare legged in the spring.
I love the idea of this velvet dress with the contrast sleeve. It’s statement enough to wear as is with boots, or rock dome flat forms with statement jewellery.
I hope you liked this post. Let me know if you like any of my choices. Tap each picture to go through to &OtherStories to purchase.
