HOW TO TAKE YOUR OUTFIT FROM SIMPLE TO CHIC

Thursday, June 14, 2018



Outerwear in my closet ranges from simple, classic, neutral numbers to stylish, head turning, statement pieces!

I’ve fallen for this fabulously textured, oversized zebra print coat from Trina Turk.   Statement pieces add a layer of interest to an otherwise boring ensemble, and quickly becomes a wardrobe staple.  This jacket never ceases to steal the spotlight, is a conversation starter, and takes you from 0 to 100 in a matter of seconds.  It takes a bit of courage, but once you get started, you’ll find yourself filling your closet with special pieces.  Below are some tips on how to style your statement coat:

OPT FOR A NEUTRAL BASE:
My first rule is, if the jacket is the highlight; keep the rest of your outfit simple so you don’t find yourself looking mismatched...For this ensemble, I stuck to a black base, letting the coat shine.

HEELS/BOOTS:
Heels have a way of elevating an outfit, so if you’re going for a night out look, definitely slip into a pair of heels to add an element of elegance and refinement...Since it was chillier, I slipped into a pair of Stuart Weitzman boots with a sleek strong silhouette. 

SMALL PURSE/CLUTCH:
You want accessorize with a purse that takes up less real estate, is elegant, and classy...I chose my mini metallic Lady Dior—favorite bag as of late.  Elegant, light, and a little piece of art
