Oh-So-Classy

The famous oh-so-classy look is back again, this time with more vibrancy and brazenness. Think in terms of loud and bold coloured pencil skirts, floral print blouses, vibrant low cut vintage dresses and retro pumps. Sophistication is being redefined here with a pop of colour. Shun away the understated elegant look and adopt the vibrant and elegant style. This trend is here to stay throughout the season; in fact you could still carry it off even in the fall. The key to rock this look is ‘don’t wear too much, don’t wear too less’.  For instance, if you’re wearing just a light shade blouse and a plain skirt make sure you wear a bright shoe or have a colourful accessory on, like a colourful bag. Wearing too much would be, wearing all colourful from head-to-toe, colourful dress, shoes and bright accessories. You’ve got to balance it if you want to stand out looking all sophisticated yet at the same time fun and flirty. Find out how to.

Floral Print Blouses and Bright Pencil Skirt: This is sure to put you on a spotlight. It’s classy, fun and totally chic. However, while choosing the blouse make sure you choose very soft printed ones. Don’t pick anything that has huge floral motifs and too much detailing. You don’t want to confuse it with the retro style. You could choose peplum style tops in soft prints. They look great with pencil skirt and the combo of both would give you that elegant yet fun look.

Pencil Dresses and Retro Pumps: Teaming a bright pencil dress and vibrant retro platform pumps is an ideal classy and fun look. For the dress, opt for classic check prints or very soft floral printed ones. On the shoes, make sure the colour of the pumps matches with the dress. While teaming them together, keep in mind to coordinate the colours or patterns.

 High Waisted colourful Pants and Printed Shirt: This combo sort of resembles the retro look so you’ve got to be careful in selecting the trouser. Don’t wear too fitting pants; instead look out for classic-cut trousers in ankle length. The blouse need not be printed, plain oxford shirts with very soft print would also work. To avoid looking like a retro girl, sport a pair of classic round-toe stilettos with it.
