Downtown Abbey Fashion Advice

 Are you one of the many Downtown Abbey fans? You probably didn't know that you can take loads of fashion advice from this program, but here it is...

After the war, trends for women started becoming a little more darling and “boyish,” which was very different from the ultra feminine fashions of the past. Wanting to shock and keep her suitors enthralled, Mary shorns off her long, luscious locks for the trendy “boyish” hairstyle that was made popular in Paris at the time. Trying new trends can help you feel like a new “you,” which we all need from time to time to keep things, you know, fresh.

Men's Clothing Women Love

 One of the biggest challenges that men face when dressing is how their significant other views their wardrobe. How can you remain stylish with clothes that you love? Check out this advice column for answers...

Perhaps there are a few principles we can learn from tailoring. Firstly, fit: never wear clothes which are too tight or too baggy. Slim-cut trousers should be worn high on the waist with hems which finish neatly on top of well made shoes, lengthening the leg line, making you appear taller. It’s all about proportions. The current vogue for short, tight jackets makes almost anyone who wears one look stupid.

Clean Your Closet For The New Year

                                


 Is the cold weather making you antsy, ready for a change? Spring cleaning can start early this year, just start with your closet. Here is an advice piece about what to do with your clothing this year.

I love connecting with various individuals, the process and, of course, the end result. Each client comes with their own story, their own goals, their own insecurities, which I take extremely seriously. How you feel inside translates to the outside through your body language, self-confidence and self-worth. I love working with people to bring to light that little spark inside them, just from something as seemingly insignificant as wearing the right colours and the right styles of clothing. The radiant smile and positive feedback after a consultation, wardrobe detox or a shopping spree are just priceless.

The New Nautical Style

 Nautical fashion is the latest trend, with new takes on an old classic. The most difficult part about this trend is figuring out how to wear it. Read the following for the best nautical fashion tips...

There are ways to take literal nautical pieces such as this cozy anchor sweater and tone it down for everyday wear -- let's face it, not all of us can just hop on a boat anytime we see fit! The idea of pairing the coziness of the sweater with a great pair of striped boyfriend-style bottoms keeps the look relaxed yet polished. Add a straw hat -- a nautical must that lends itself to the laid-back vibe of this look.
