Give Your Wardrobe A New Vibe

When it comes to the clothes we wear, they can often be seen as a reflection of who we are and our personalities. So it is important that you take the time to wear the clothes you love, the clothes that make you feel good and think about how you put things together. The problem is, that sometimes we can feel a little self-conscious when it comes to wearing certain things. Society has an opinion, and we also may have dress codes to adhere to. But it doesn’t have to be this way, and you can still stick with the rules and give your wardrobe a fresh new vibe. If you want to know how you can do it, then read on to find out.

Put more focus on the shoes you wear

Shoes are by far one of the easiest ways you can change the way an outfit feels and looks. A pair of jeans teamed with a t-shirt can be casual one minute and then be completely changed the next by simply changing the shoes you are wearing. Focusing on this side of things alone can help you to start feeling better about the clothes you are wearing. If you always seem to wear one sort of style of shoe, change things up a little. Why not try a different style of shoe for a change and see the difference it could make in regards to how you look but also more importantly how you feel in the clothes you wear.

Clear out the clutter in your wardrobe

Often we can get ourselves into a rut of feeling drab just by looking in our wardrobe and not being able to see past the clutter. Are you one of those people that keep items of clothing just in case? Sometimes we can leave ourselves with too much choice and this means that although it looks like we have loads of options, we can’t see past it and choose the same items over and over. Maybe you are one of those people who are hoping to fit back into a particular item of clothing one day or something you think will be trendy again once more? Maybe there are items in their that hold sentimental value. If you haven’t worn something in over a year, what makes you think you ever will? Is it time to ditch the clutter? Perhaps really look at what you have in your wardrobe and make some tough decisions. You may find that you feel far more inspired with less to choose from.

Take a moment to consider your accessories

Accessories are just as important as the clothes that you wear, so it is important to start thinking about them and how you can match them into your style. Whether you choose to invest in a Gucci bag that will be able to be sued for many outfit options, look at different belts that can jazz up a pair of boring jeans, or even think about hats, coast, scarves and glasses. These are the things that will just add another level to your outfit. Accessories also mean things like jewellery, so don’t forget to add a few items to your staples, especially if you are wanting to dress up a little.

Stepping out of your comfort zone

Sometimes it can be fun to step out of your comfort zone and try different clothes and styles. It may be a new colour that you have never worn before, we have already covered how colours can transform your day to day look,. Or maybe a new style of trousers or top. You can start with small changes, or you can really try and be drastic with your changes and views. Don’t be afraid to make these choices and changes. Do what feels right for you, but many people suggest that you can get a sudden surge of confidence just by stepping out of your comfort zone. Who doesn’t want that at any stage of their lives?

Dressing for your figure and body shape

Finally, dressing for your body shape and figure can make a huge difference. Not only to how you look in the clothes you are wearing, but it can definitely make an impact on how you feel and your confidence levels. Sometimes you need some guidance on this, and thankfully there are some great tips online to help you distinguish the type of cuts, fabrics and shapes of clothing that are ideal for your own body shape. Often just making this change alone can drastically change the way you approach your shopping and how you dress daily. Feeling more comforted in your own skin.

Let’s hope these tips help you to give your wardrobe a new vibe.

Swedish Watch Brand Gyllen Empowers Women Through Infinity

Swedish Watch Brand Gyllen Empowers Women Through Infinity

Swedish Watch Brand Gyllen

 

Newly launched Swedish brand GYLLEN is selling Swiss watches for women that not only serve as a timepiece but also act as a visual reminder to life’s endless possibilities. Intrigued? This already much buzzed about brand is offering even the pickiest of buyers ultralight, modern, affordable pieces which truly compliment any outfit. All watches have Swiss movement, unscratchable sapphire crystal glass, 50M water resistance and are plated in real 24K 99.9% purity gold, shiny white gold and rose gold colour.

 

Julyana Otelinger, who previously worked with the #1 lighting designer in the world Ingo Maurer, joined forces with her partner Richard Gyllenbern to disrupt the watch industry by selling value through emotions and feelings. The duo is targeting women who want to buy a watch not only because of its quality and aesthetic design but more so because they feel a strong connection with the brand message and infinity sign on the watch.

 

The brand’s core message is already hitting hard with buyers. One Australian girl with cancer reminds herself to keep fighting, one Swedish girl with Cervical Dystonia is reminded about acceptance, while another Belgian girl who lost her daughter is reminded about balance and to appreciate the small things in life.

 

All these ladies are sharing their stories on the brand’s website which serves to empower other women to stay strong, keep fighting and to be reminded that regardless of what you do, have done or will do, everything is possible.

 

All watches have gone through rigorous quality controls to meet the standards of true affordable feminine luxury with prices less than $199.

Maya Cover Up White

 

Picture this. You’re on a tropical island enjoying the blue water, the warm breeze, the super soft sand touching your toes. It’s a magical feeling that you never want to part with, right? Now, experience that any time you get dressed when you wear the Ochie brand! Inspired by exotic locations and white sand beaches, travel is rooted in the brand’s DNA.

In it’s highly anticipated second season, this feminine, Caribbean-inspired line got its initial start with swimwear. It’s quickly grown to include eye catching dresses, cover ups, tops, pants and more — with (swoon!) accessories debuting soon.

Ochie owes its Caribbean influence and wanderlust vibe to founder Hana Lloyd who was born in the Caribbean nation of Trinidad and traveled the globe as an airline captain. Her focus on fit, design, fine fabrics and unique custom prints make these resort style pieces something you’ll want in your closet whether you’re vacationing on a tropical island or planning a weekend getaway with the girls.

Top Picks from Ochie:

The Bra Lab’s bras are like nothing else out there.

The Bra Lab’s bras are like nothing else out there. They feature side clasps, not a back one. That means no more back bump showing under your clothes. And even better, you can change up your look by swapping out the back strap. Instead of a plain black strap, maybe you want a lace, fringe or leather one. Because these bras are completely interchangeable, you can combine different cup sizes with different strap sizes, so they fit virtually any size from AA-H 28-42 in supportive comfort!

 

The Bra Lab

 

The Bra Lab’s designs are so unique they have 2 patents. All this technology means you’re getting a versatile, pretty and comfortable bra. So, don’t hate your bra any longer, get a Bra Lab Bra and feel the love.

  • Customizable- You no longer have to search and buy bras for different outfits. The Bra Lab adapts to your outfit and is your go-to bra!

About the Bra Lab:

Jennifer and Gina are two sisters who learned an appreciation of the fashion industry from their grandmother Nonna was a master tailor in Italy. The children of immigrant entrepreneurs also learned to love hard work and a challenge. After college, where Gina majored in graphic design and Jessica earned an MBA, Gina worked as the owner of a chain of contemporary women’s boutiques. There she saw regular bras didn’t work with every outfit. The sisters set out to change that and the Bra Lab was born. Sustainability and ethical practices are at the core of the business. The Bra Lab only works with factories that abide by ethical practices.

At New York Fashion Week Jonathan Simkhai Wows Crowds

At New York Fashion Week Jonathan Simkhai wowed show-goers with a fun, bohemian look created by TRESemmé NYFW Stylist, Odile Gilbert.

THE “60’S CHIC LOOK” FROM JONATHAN SIMKHAI

THE “60’S CHIC LOOK” FROM JONATHAN SIMKHAI

 

“To achieve this chic and bohemian look, be sure to give the hair texture at the roots. That’s how you get the 60’s boho feel.” – Odile Gilbert, TRESemmé NYFW Stylist

Recreate today’s look from Jonathan Simkhai with the below steps and tips from Odile.

Step 1: Start by washing hair with TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Shampoo and Conditioner to create a frizz-free foundation. For finer hair, use the Thick & Full Shampoo & Conditioner.

Step 2: Part hair in the centre. Spray TRESemmé Repair & Protect 7 Pre-Styling Spray to prevent damage and then blow dry hair with a paddle brush.

Step 3: Use hair straighteners to achieve a sleek and smooth finish.

Step 4: Spray generously with TRESemmé Fresh & Clean Dry Shampoo for texture. Then, take a small section of hair from either side, tightly plait and fasten with a hair tie. Add wooden beads for additional 60’s-style chic.

Step 5: Finish the look with TRESemmé Compressed Micro-Mist Hair Spray to keep the look in place without creating stiffness.

TRESEMMÉ PRODUCTS USED: Keratin Smooth Shampoo and Conditioner, Repair & Protect 7 Pre-Styling Spray, Fresh & Clean Dry Shampoo, Compressed Micro-Mist Hair Spray in Level 2: Smooth
