Favorite Silhouettes
February 25, 2009
Some of my favorite outfits that receive the most compliments are when I create a contrast, or a silhouette, with the clothing pieces that I combine, for example:
An empire-waist blouse or knit top with straight legged jeans, and low heels or flats.
Wide-legged trouser jeans paired with a streamlined top or a top with an inset (defined) waist, and heels.
A pencil skirt topped with a feminine blouse, and low heels, or flats.
A pencil skirt and a fitted knit top with a dramatic scarf for a modern 1920s look.
A full knee-length skirt topped with a tailored, simple blouse or a knit tee or top, a statement necklace, and boots in wintertime, or high heeled sandals in summertime. This is one of my all time favorite feminine looks and has a 50s vibe.
See the pattern? Creating a contrast between your clothing pieces and accessories is an easy way to construct an unique outfit that makes you look put together and modish.
