  • Power Dressing | Check Suit

    Power Dressing | Check Suit

    New season, new suit. So why not checking yourself up with a new check skirt suit? Spring is exactly one month away, thus it it right about time to climb off the trousers long drenched in winter’s rain. The best way to start the new season in style is by investigating dominating colours first. Blue and purple seem to win auctions in very high pitches, thus choosing a suit in one of these tones could only bring joy. We all remember the art class lessons threatening us about the true colour matches. Luckily, the rules have become way easier in fashion. Scandinavian brand Just Female points us about the real colour games this spring with their outstanding and joyous collection. The best example is the featured  power suit with dominating blue and purple checks. Who said these two colours don’t go together? Not only it gives the millenial and surrealistic feel, but also is a great fashion statement. For this colourful occassion, we choose the oversized blazer with an assymetric skirt. To dress it off, we add trendy white tee and knee high black booties. And finally, to sweeten all up a faux pearl bag. From work to high streets, this outfit is a real power show stopper.

    Here are two pairs that we picked from an exclusive PROF Shoes line and styled for stylish city women leading a busy work life and lifestyle.

    Brown Ankle Boots

    Talking about ankle boots, this season we should be paying attention to more loud colours and textures. Brown tones not only dominate throughout editors wardrobes but also shoe shelves.

    Studded Black Biker Boots

    Here is little off-duty update on the biker boots and why you should be thinking about getting a pair in the first place. Biker boots are no longer an off-duty street style shoe. Just like Christian Dior pairs the rough bots with couture skirts and dresses, you can also pair them with leather trousers and beautiful maxi satin dresses. The more versatile the better.

  • Chocolate Brown Trend

    Chocolate Brown Trend

    You might have seen the high-street stores all dominating in the warmest tones such as beige, nudes, brown and chocolate. It if finally exciting to see that the highlights are being put on something else rather than black in the colder season. Thus, today we are here to help you form a glamorous autumnal style that will take you through the day to night events in style and sophistication. All together with that, we will bring over some top hot garments to be included in your seasonal wardrobe before first snow hits in, as well as some excellent styling tips!

    How to style chocolate brown tones: First of all, brown is the second classic colour that is super easy to style, thus treat it the same as black. It looks best styled and toned all together or blocked separately.

    Must Have Garments This Season: Corduroy, Mesh, Silk and Satin

    Corduroy Trend: The material that has long been forgotten and abandoned is now reviving in its best forms. Why its is great? Simply because of its unique and warm surface and seasonal feel. It has now been considered one of the best fabrics to wear for the colder months, thus choosing an overall blazer, trousers or even a set can become one of your most versatile and loved pieces. For our signature look, we choose brown corduroy blazer over a mesh blouse.

    Mesh Trend: Oppositely to corduroy, mesh is always a good idea for the sass lovers. Great for both day, if you want to wear something less underneath your blazer, and night if you wand to look extra glamorous. Again, we are choosing some mesh check to spicy up the mix of garments.

    Silk/Satin: That’s right, we can officially wear silk and satin off-duty. Dress down by adding some corduroy or knitwear to it, or dress it up with even more silk!

    As a tribute to these heavenly garments, here is a full look with all three fabrics in one look, all featuring some delicious chocolate brown tones.

    Accessories: Recommended to keep it muted, we chose extra long slouchy boots and a mini handbag in black. Added some gold hair accessories et voila – a very rich and rather smooth look for your next glamorous weekend!

  • Fall Wardrobe with Winser London

    Fall Wardrobe with Winser London

    [fvplayer src=”https://www.thesimone.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Winser-Website-2018.mp4″ splash=”https://www.thesimone.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Winser-Thumbnail.jpg” width=”854″ height=”480″]Green Coat    Dominating through the Prada and even Gucci runaways green is becoming a real eye-catcher. Choose the colour palette from olive green to deep emerald to add some liveliness into your style. Think sweater, blazers and coats and you will see that the colour is not difficult to be matched at all. It easily goes with whites, tonal greens, yellows AND blacks. Winser London has the ultimate double faced coat of dreams in the beautiful and crisp green. Made from the finest merino wool, it will be your statement coat through the colder season.

    Cashmere Scarf   If there is a better way to compliment your daily fall trench, that must be an oversized scarf. Maxi shawls are a great investment into your wardrobe in general and will undoubtedly last through many seasons. Choosing neutral colours such as light camel will be a win this season, and choosing it in refined garments such as cashmere not only add luxuriousness to your look but also quality. Here is how we styled an all neutral look featuring Winser London Oversized Cashmere Wrap.

    All Blue Leisurewear   Sunday in Noting Hill. What would you choose to wear? Wouldn’t that be a stylish and stretchy wide leg trousers and a soft polo neck? Simple as it is, we colour tone an all blue leisure look featuring Winser London’s newest collection. We have paired the Emma Miracle Trousers with a timeless merino wool polo neck. To elevate the whole look we are matching this colour with white accessories – pointed booties and white handbag. And here you have that clean elegant look to keep you warm and in style through the chilly days.

    English Tweed   Here is something special for the classic and timeless style lovers featuring some English Tweed. Heritage tweed is happily having a return this season and together with other checks can be classified as the top trends to wear. You can even pick your favourite colour combination, but today we are all about the old good black & white. Winser London does not stop surprising us with its finest quality and excellent tailoring. We are underdressing the rather business smart casual tweed trousers with a gorgeous cream knitwear sweater. Pair it with heels or a sweater – booth looks will be effortlessly elegant.

    Green Turtle Neck   Adding up to the green, if you are too shy to go that bold with coats, pick a lovely green polo neck. And add high waisted green trousers. If it is too much colours for you, pair it with black. Trust us, that pop of colour will be enough to be on the trend wave and look both modern and sophisticated with your sense of style.

    Purple Autumn   When time comes to put our whites and yellows favourites apart, purple comes very well in hand. In SS18 we have enjoyed lilac colours mastering the high-streets. The god news is. Deep purples perfectly replace that shade and can be called as the ultimate autumn colour to have this season. It can be boots, it can be bag but our highest recommendations go to the coats or scarves. We would like to emphasise Winser London’s smart outerwear – double faces stole with pockets. Quench it with a belt and add over the knee boots to see some Parisian femininity arising in our style.
