how to work: a bold mix of florals and stripes

image

  • tip: if you are going to be so bold as to try mixing florals and stripes…good luck. i find this tricky to do – probably because i don’t wear a lot of prints so have very little experience playing with mixing patterns.
  • anchoring the mix of patterns by picking one colour play on e.g. navy in this case, and keeping the shoe a neutral will go a long way in making this inspiration look ‘work’ for the cube.

how to work: the themed tee – tres bien!

image

  • tip: this is for me a refreshing take on how to work business casual wearing a t-shirt. so chic, non?!
  • note don’t attempt this look in that tee you just rolled out of bed in, or the one with the hole in it, or the one with ‘my aunt went to vegas and….” you get the drift. keep it classy.

how to work: spring’s black + white trend, think spots

image

  • tip: i like this look not only for the boldness in the pattern but also the pop of colour in the shoe. wearing black and white is a classic pairing but think about adding a colour in the shoe or handbag, like orange, red or even a green sandal.

how to work: this spring’s black + white trend and keep it classic

image

tip: i love this look because it will stand the test of time. if you’ve got a black pencil skirt pair it with a black + white tee and black pumps for an easy take on this kate spade look (you may not want to leave the fascinator at home tho).

how to work: this season’s RED hot trend and sizzle in the cube

image

tip: try head-to-toe red. too much for you? wear it in a blouse or a tailored bottom. either way, you’re sure to look hot.. office appropriately hot of course.

how to work: bold sunshine yellow

image

tip: nothing says spring/summer like bold colours. to brighten your wardrobe this season, try a bright yellow jacket which can be paired easily with white trousers, a patterned shift dress, or cute black cropped pants and ballet flats.

how to work: this season’s yellow…in a pant suit perhaps?

image

tip: yellow pant suit, how many ways could i wear thee? let me count the ways.

a muted yellow pantsuit like this paul smith number paired with a crisp white shirt and heeled sandals will make a great addition to the closet this spring/summer. 

you can break up the suit by pair the trousers with a statement tee or patterned blouse and the blazer with a pretty spring frock or pencil skirt. That blazer could also take you right into fall/winter. Countless possibilities.
