How to style shirts and blouses

Blouses/shirts began to acquire their credit from women during the 1920s. They were (and still are) a comfortable yet stylish clothing choice for both day and evening wear, not to mention economical since they can be mixed and matched creating several outfits from very few pieces. The 20s was an era of art decor and celebration of ending World War One, triggering the introduction of more masculine sailor, pixie and peasant tops which are still in Vogue today.

How to style T-shirts

T-shirts are an absolute must-have right now! After being one of the more neglected tops during the rise of the bodysuit last year, the high street stores are now plastering their mannequins in tees and I am a HUGE fan. Investing in a block colour T-shirt or one with a simple slogan is a great investment, they are absolutely timeless and incredibly versatile. Dress them up or down; less is more.

How to style jackets

We can pretend that the 1st of march, aka spring, is the memo to stop resembling a pig in blanket when leaving the house in multiple layers of insulation. When in reality, here in the U.K. we are still living in temperatures way below California's average winter. Depressing, I know. On the bright side, here are 5 ways to style a range of jackets to spice up your survival of the cold weather.
