ADD SOME CLASSIC STYLE TO YOUR NEXT OUTFIT

April 20, 2021 in FASHION

When you are thinking about switching up your style, there are many ways to go and trends to follow. Howeve, one that will benefit you the most in the long run (financially and aesthetically) is to develop that classic style that never goes out of fashion. There are many benefits to adding the elegance and chicness of ‘classic style’ to your looks – from tailoured blazers and quality knits, to pearl and diamond jewellery and leather ballerina flats. All will last you forever and you’ll always be able to find items of clothing that compliment each other. How do you add some classic style pieces to your wardrobe?

Clothes That Never Go Out Of Style

One of the secrets to getting to grips with so-called classic style is to select clothing items that never seem to go out of style. Many of our most-loved items fall under this category. Whether it’s the humble pair of jeans, the little black dress, or the navy blue blazer. If you want to have a classic and timeless appearance, you’ll need to fill your wardrobe with these sorts of items. Now, this doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t also have other kinds of clothes. Adding trend-led pieces to your outfits is fun and what fashion is all about. Mixing both is perfection.

Defining Your Personal Style

A great factor in classic style is that you can always maintain your own personal style too. One of my personal style features is that I always like to wear a headband, for example. In fact, the closer you can align the classic pieces with your personal style, the more comfortable you will be. To define your personal style more closely, all you have to do is experiment. With more experimentation comes a clearer sense of what styles suit you, and which ones you should probably avoid. Pay attention to how you look and feel in different kinds of outfits – that way, you can get closer to properly defining your personal style.

Use Designer Accessories & Features

As we all know, style is more than just choosing which clothes to wear. It’s also a matter of selecting the appropriate accessories and makeup to go with those clothes to create that overall picture. One great way to elevate your outfit to appear more classic and elegant, is to accessorise with designer accessories. If you can’t afford cashmere knits, for example, a chic-looking high-street knit will immediately be elevated when teamed with a designer belt. Designer accessories are more affordable that designer clothes. Opt for neutral colours not seasonal prints, and really think about what handbags and shoes you are going to get the most wear out of in the future.simple diamond jewellerySleek Jewellery

We’ve spoken about accessories, but what about jewellery? A good classic look always involves simple and elegant items of jewellery. There is often a certain reluctance, in the classic mode, to wear items which are too much of a statement. There is something much more attractive and elegant about the stripped-back look of subtle pearl, diamond and gold jewellery. When you are choosing rings or earrings, make sure that you are wearing ones that are rather simple in their elegance. With a Missoma gold chain, Infinity Diamond Jewellery stud earrings or a simple pearl, you will be closer to that elegant classic look that you are striving for. If you overdo it, however, you might end up moving in the opposite direction. As long as you are wearing sleek and simple jewellery, your outfits will be perfectly complimented. Be sure not to overlook this essential part of getting that classic style this season.

Classic Hairstyles

Once you have got the clothing down and have chosen a few appropriate jewellery items and accessories, what next? Well, no look is ever going to be complete if you have not considered how to style your hair. Your hairstyle says a lot about you, and you need to make sure that it is complimenting the classic style you are going for with the rest of your look.

There are certain hairstyles that will always be more classic than others, and you are going to get a lot out of those in particular. But as a general rule, make sure that you are not overdoing it with your hair. Again, it’s all about sleek elegance, and that means keeping things simple rather than overdoing them too much. If you can remember that rule, you are much more likely to get your hair to work in your favour rather than against you. Think about a sleek ponytail or a simple bouncy blow-dry.pearl ringLooking Effortless

Who doesn’t want their style to appear effortless? There is something about looking effortless that makes an outfit more eye-catching. But it is challenging to make a style look effortless, and ironically it can take a lot of effort to get there. You want people to think you look so chic and elegant, but also question how you can possibly do it with so little effort.

If you are keen to try and look more effortless in your wearing of classic styles, you can try a few tricks. First of all – prepare. As long as you have thought about and laid out in advance your outfits for different events, it is going to be a lot easier for you. Similarly, you should aim not to overdo anything, and that way your look won’t look as though it has been played around with too much.

Confidence

A final word on confidence. Confidence makes anything succeed. Seriously, test it! Any style that you might be keen to promote requires some degree of confidence. You should therefore take the time to practice your new style to see how it fits you before going out in public. The more confidently you can carry it off, the more likely it is to look as if it aligns with you.

{Some PR Samples/UnpaidAD} A fabulous array of pro {Some PR Samples/UnpaidAD} A fabulous array of products for this week’s #friyayfaves post!
The new @biossance Squalane & Copper Pepid Rapid Plumping Serum is a real gem. This pale blue gel serum is insanely hydrating and my skin just drinks it in, leaving it looking plump & juicy. Great big bottle for a serum too. Another hydrating hero is the @freshbeauty Rose Deep Hydration Facial Toner. It’s a cult favourite for a reason - delicious rose scent, floating petals and really puts some moisture back into your skin.
Talking big moisture (are you seeing the pattern here), the new @dermalogicauk Hyaluronic Ceramide Mist* really does hydrate and leave skin feeling so comfortable and soft. Seems a lot more powerful than other mists, which I think is the ceramides really fortifying my skin barrier to leave it lovely and happy.
The new serum from @lancomeofficial is incredible and more than worth its high price tag. In the Renergie HCF Triple Serum, 3 powerful active ingredients (Vitamin C, Niacinamide & Ferulic Acid) are kept unmixed, in their own chambers to keep their potency. Only at the point of pressing the pump do they mixed in your hand. So effective at improving skin texture and brightness. Deserves an array of awards!
To keep my laminated brows in place I’ve been relying on @eyebrowqueen Brow Fix for months now. They do not budge but they look very natural. This does make your brows crispy, but it doesn’t flake or rub off. I don’t mind the crispness as visually they look great, but some might not like this.
Finally, I’m so happy to have the @foreo_uk Iris eye device in my life, to massage any eye bags or puffiness away. Great to use over an eye cream. It’s so relaxing too!

Cannot get enough of the @goodhabitskin Water Jell Cannot get enough of the @goodhabitskin Water Jelly Dew Cream! It wibble wobbles like a jelly and has blue light protection! Hyaluronic acid locks moisture into skin to create a hydrated, plumper appearance, while a blend of 20% humectants draw water to the skin to keep it moisturised all day long.
