Stripes can be intimidating. They’re bold and they can be a little difficult to wear. I will give the tips how to wear them so stripes can also be fun and exciting!! Here are the usual considerations when wearing a stripe motif outfit.

To avoid a confusing look I suggest you that you pair your stripes with one with solid color. Definitely you can mix patterns and prints, but do it wisely! Today I am wearing a marvelous A-line rainbow pleated stripe skirt (remember the wider the stripe, the bolder the statement) and to avoid that busy look wear one solid color for your other items. Black and white is classic, but don’t be afraid of other combinations so choose any color as long as that color is in your motif. Or you can pair stripes with a neutral if you want to play it safe 🙂

This morning my mood is telling me to pretty it up by wearing pink with an asymmetrical off shoulder style, the pleats on the shoulder make it a more feminine style. Just take a look in the mirror, and if you think your top is too plain and you can make more of a statement by adding accessories like a brooch 🙂 but not to much flair go.. Easy Easy Easy 🙂

To get more of a chic look you can add heels and sunglasses that are a matching color. To soften the stripe pattern and add an informal feel go for a purse with girly motifs, you will feel both classy and cheerful vibes for your daily activities. So will you be wearing stripes?

See through shoes and accessories are timely and super chic, we have recently seen that many fashion designers have creatively used these materials.

From the transparent purse to the clear heels and clutches. These see-through accents give a “Mystery Revealed” look and the same time are cute and sexy. It also makes for a “Sci-Fi” or “Out of this world look”. Look that is definitely different. I chose the neoprene dress with a geometric design to elevate this futuristic look even more. If your colors are metallic it is even better or pick a structured dress that also goes well with the clear accents.

Here are a few good things you can utilize for the transparent accents:

• The clear bag is the bare essential that displays your contents so when you need something you can see and grab it easily from your purse.
• When it’s raining you don’t have to worry about getting it wet. The Plastic or PVC make for the perfect wet weather style.
• Because it’s clear then you can beautifully pull it off with any colored outfit. No stress with matching your outfit.

The inevitable con is there is no place to hide, meaning all people around you can see what’s inside your handbag. If I don’t want to reveal all of your contents then just put those inside a small makeup case and of course you know where are you going to be… so think about hiding any valuables in the makeup bag!

I personally prefer different colors and shapes of makeup cases to put in my transparent purse. The colors I choose are items that coordinate with my outfit of that day and also match or compliment the geometric shape to create that’s futuristic feel.

If you choose to be more playful you can put any removable sticker on your clear bag. Wear colored or artistic socks to enhance the fun and give a focal point to your see – through boots. A Huge metal simple design belt will complete fun and futuristic look. Thanks to all of you in any universe for reading 🙂

See you in the Stars!

Influenced by the renaissance era; Think Marie Antoinette, the shape of the dress is very elongated and it creates an elaborate look. Today we will use the look but a little less elaborate than the original of course.

Today one the trends is the balloon shirt sleeve look and a slim fitting in torso which gives you slimmer look and feel. I mentioned on the previous post that a monochrome base is better usual pairing with the bold and trendy color blocking accessories ; this makes the pattern pop I am wearing a top that can be as a dress as well, I paired this with the over knee boots elongate the body making legs look longer and slimmer.

Because of this high collar design and style I finished the look with a detachable bow collar to compliment the white shirt. To accessorize the entire look, I added playful colors’. I chose the bright strap hexagonal fun bag. The square or rectangle bag is well suited for this look.

So how will you style your hair for this outfit? I personally prefer a simple ponytail that puts the focus on the beautiful high collar design or you can go big for big wavy hairstyle – It just depends how you fee today 🙂
