As promised, I am keeping up my aid to you of sorting out Autumn fashions. Continuing from my previous starter of this style: http://trewleesensational.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/new-autumn-androgyny-2014.html
We're gonna start off with the basics- and I mean the BASIC basics.
We're talking colours and patterns:
We're talking:
- burgundy
- black & white (obviously)
- grey
- tartan (I know what you're thinking)
- houndstooth
Burgundy
(all the way back in January, Burgundy was born to rock: http://trewleesensational.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/saturdaystyles.html )
Burgundy is good at neutralising an otherwise very dark outfit. See ^ It suits a lot of seasons and moods, whether you wrap up with a red wine or spicy bright shade.
Black & White Monochrome
The trouser suit remains to look best and most effective in the original black and white style. Yeah, so some space for change that I will allow the suit to be white and the shirt black- but ONLY if you can pull it off! If not, stick with what you know. See here <
Houndstooth
(viewed previously here: http://trewleesensational.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/saturdaystyles_18.html )
'Houndstooth print' can be in any colour but looks best in black & white. Black & white, in this example, creates the illusion of a combination of these two colours; grey, matching the overall colour co-ordiantion of the outfit... result! See >
Grey
Grey- it's a mans colour. And works with the whole monochrome idea so yeah... need I say more? See >
Tartan
(a brill example here: http://trewleesensational.blogspot.co.uk/2014/06/june-wish-list.html )
If you aren't one for dulled colours, add a little spice with tartan- although there are guidelines for this too; can only be red or blue, or I might stretch for green if you yourself can judge it to be OK.
Yours,
Truly xxx
