how to style: modern classic collection

To the ladies who love classic pieces in their wardrobe!! I have discovered a few modern classic pieces to add into your sophisticated collection. A creamy natural white wrap around dress and linen tuxedo short suit, work perfectly with a few trendy items. The trendy items will keep a good balance of trend against classic modest. These pieces can be worn in a variety ways with a hint of twist in styling. Today on “ how to style” I will share with you on how to incorporate it with 2 different approaches.

Look 1: Pastel with Stripes

A striped turtleneck can be added onto a simple wrap around dress for a unique layering. A pop of pastel colors makes it that more interesting!

Styling Tips:

  • Instead of wearing a normal top with this wrap around dress, try a turtleneck for a hint of Grace Kelly turtleneck inspired
  • Pastel colors will not only lighten up your look, it can also add sweet touches
  • Avoid necklaces on neck, a pair of statement earrings will do the trick
  • Go for a pair of kitten heels instead of high pumps or flats, this can enhance the classic look without trying too hard

Styling Tips :

  • Say bye bye to shirts or T-shirt to pair it with tuxedo suit, let’s try a cropped top
  • Look for monotone colors if you are trying to achieve an edgy look
  • The shoes are crucial to give it the pop of attitude, I would go for ankle boots that has buckle detailings
  • Lastly, roll up your jacket sleeve when you cape it ( this will help your arms look longer)
