Style of the Week



Hello, all! Alex here again with another style of the week. Summer is right around the corner, and you know what that means... kids everywhere! Remember those days of freedom and fun in the summer time? Ah, only if we could be so lucky to be young and care free! This weeks look is inspired by youth.

Sometimes it can be a challenge with the "age" of your outfit. Always remember that it is possible to look younger or sometimes .... older... with the clothes your are wearing. This look is an appropriate way to dress up with a youthful vibe.

First, we have the top; a white twill weave made from stretch cotton twill. This means that the fabric is breathable, and, this cotton has some stretch which means extra comfort while wearing this top. Not only is it great in the sense of comfort, it is also fantastic when it comes to styling. The neck extends, almost like a scarf, which means you can get more than one look from just this one shirt. Finally, this shirt is great for the office, dressing up or down!

Secondly, there is the jumper. This is the main piece that gives our style of the week a youthful appearance.   Because the shirt is a little more on the formal side, the jumper's curves and playful silhouette helps to give the look a more exuberant vibe. It is made from cotton, which gives the jumper plenty of movement and you the comfort and freedom to get around.

Finally are the accessories!

First, is the corsage cuff. This was used to play along with the jumper's youthfulness, but, can also be worn with almost any casual outfit to give it that extra "Umph!" It is also very soft and comfortable, which is important.

Finally, are the anklets. Just like the cuff, it is a great way to finish a look. They are fun, can give emphasis to the feet when wearing a skirt, or can dress up casual shoes. Because they are "corset styled" they can be adjusted for any size. What a great way to finish a look!

Summer may be just around the corner, but with this look you will be feeling cheerful all day long. Hoping you are having a great week and an even better weekend!

Used in this look:
Blouse
Jumper
Anklets

Sincerely, 
Alex
