The Style

Shakedown...

Transeasonal Begins...

I love this time of year when the temperature cools down just enough to wear a stylish jacket but not too cold to have to pull out the coats and boots.

In the new April mini collection I introduced the cropped trench, which is a lightweight jacket that can be easily folded up in your bag.

I love a black jacket – classic, easy to match, slimming and sheek. On an overcast evening or day the cream feels so fresh and works brilliantly back with colorful accessories.

  

So to work the cream jacket and bring in the color....

The next couple of combos are a great look for lunch with friends, a wander through the markets on a Sunday morning or a beautiful wandering day through the city.

Try a soft green scarf worn back with a contrast chunky resin ring......

While it is still warm and fine with just the jacket try a burnt orange bag worn with a colorful beaded long necklace.

So to work the black jacket...

I always think if you want to bring out the black jacket keep it sleek, simple and sexy. The bright color combo shown above still works with black but is not nearly as sophisticated as with the cream. A slim fitted jacket looks great back with a slim pant. A strong look for during the day and then easily transitioned into a super sexy look for red wine and tapas at your favourite wine bar.

My hot tip with the black?

Make it work with a make-up transition.

Peita, I loved the tips on the natural look in the Beauty Breakdown! Excited to hear how to master an easy transition for this look :-)

Happy Friday!

Best,
