AS THE CRISP air ushers in a new season, the fashion world undergoes its perennial metamorphosis, breathing life into our wardrobes with fresh inspiration.
YES, IT'S TRUE, Anna Dello Russo can pull off nearly any look. The Italian fashion journalist is known for her bold style, but this double duty denim look is surprisingly wearable.
THIS INSTALMENT of Style File features model Sara Ramén, who was born in Australia to a Swedish father and a French mother. She credits her heritage for her affinity with these cultures, despite growing up in Perth. Ramén began travelling on her own around the world as a model in her late-teens with Marilyn Agency and Storm Models, living many different places, including Paris, London and Sydney.
ONE OF OUR favourite Mini Trends of the moment is the very chic pairing of a pair of flared blue jeans with a silk scarf tied in the hair, which is set in a pretty half ponytail. It's pretty and romantic and perfect for these October days when paired with a soft cardigan, cableknit jumper or even a puff-sleeved blouse or white t-shirt if it's a warm day. Here are a few of our favourite ways to style the look, as well as few shopping links ...
AS THE FIRST day of autumn approaches this Friday on September 23, we're resigned to the fact that summer is nearly over. On the bright side, fall clothes are wonderful⏤whether trench coats with wellies; or a chunky knit with white jeans (we are still transitioning after all); tweed blazers and baseball caps; flared blue jeans and boxy coats, here are a few of our favourite ways to dress for these autumn days...
AS FAR AS TRENDS go, double denim is definitely one of our favourites⏤it's casual and comfortable and yet also très chic. Also referred to as denim-on-denim or a Canadian Tuxedo (which we previously thought referred to Canadians' love of the fabric, but actually has something to do with Bing Crosby and a hotel in Vancouver in 1951) ...
JUST A FEW SNAPSHOTS of the things we've been up to this past July, including a quick trip to Edinburgh that ended up taking longer due to the heatwave, so iced coffees on the morning of the day that we were supposed to return home; pink English roses in the bright June sun and Sweet Potato, Ginger & Garlic Tofu Stew (with Lime and Spinach) ...
NOW THAT WE are out of our trainers and tracksuit bottoms and back into actual clothing again, we've switched to living in blue jeans and haven't looked back. In fact, it's such a good alternative, we're looking to add denim shirts and blazers and dresses and skirts to the mix. Denim days may be here again, but that's because they've never really left ...
This week's Fashion Inspiration features Lithuanian model Edita Vilkevičiūtė in an editorial by Quentin de Briey for the Vogue Paris October 2020 issue. It's filled with chic 70's styling by way of shearling gilets and plenty of suede, high-waisted blue jeans and brown leather jackets; cosy turtlenecks and belted tweed blazers, short denim shorts and tall leather boots ...
PRAGUE-BASED style influencer Medina @madi_yusi's style is decidedly modern and eclectic―one day it's a belted pantsuit with tall leather boots and another it's cowboy boots and city shorts. There are bootcut jeans, and blazers and ball caps; plenty of pleated wide-legged pants and leather mules―with everything all put together in an effortless and always comfortable style ...
WHILE IT HAS been sunny lately and all the leaves are still wonderfully green with only a few touches of yellow here and there, and only a few that have fallen along pathways and around the foot of signs at coffee and ice cream shops, it was blustery today. The kind of blustery wind that has a coolness attached to it, the kind that is meant to shake leaves from trees and carry them away ...
We've already seen actual yellow leaves on the treetops and many more fallen ones on the ground. The air feels brisk and the clouds seem to hovering around more persistently these days, so there's no denying that autumn is well and truly on its way. Rather than be glum about it, we have decided to put together an inspiration board for you, of outfits (and the key pieces to buy) that will help you make the transition from these last fading summer days into the chilly mornings of autumn ...
IN FEBRUARY IT of this year, there seemed to be a growing consensus that the skinny jean trend was officially over. The style that was ubiquitous for both men and women in the 2010s has had a good run and now it's time to move on and try something new ...
You may have seen this list here or maybe somewhere else, maybe not in the same format, or maybe some pieces have changed, but one thing for sure: there are a few items in my wardrobe that are the most essential, pieces that I rotate all my outfits around, pieces that create endless variety for styling. Here is this season's new essentials shopping list...
There are myriad trends for this autumn: extravagant volume; ballooning sleeves; cardigans worn with everything; seventies-hued denim; trouser suits and pencil skirts; check tights; skirts, coats, and headscarves where checks were worn altogether such as at Burberry; wild fringes on coats, bags and dresses; and so on ...
