3. The Classy Look

A tweed skirt will always make a woman stand out and although it might be a bit cold, it will make you look fantastic. Next, a long sleeve crop top; not the same color let it compliment your skirt. Add a low lying necklace that goes with the whole combination and also a matching bag. Go classy with this one, going for subtle colors. Just add high heels and your look is complete.

Must-have Jackets & Coats for the Office

For women's fashion.

Posted on 2015-12-07 by CEFashion

Office outfits can look dull and colorless, especially in fall and winter when our styling options narrow down a little. Fortunately, there are plenty of cool jackets and coats fashion designers have created in order to keep us stylish and chic no matter the degrees outside. If you want to look at your best when going at the office, check out these cool jackets and coats for the ultimate fall-winter office look!

Oversized double breasted coat

A double breasted coat is the perfect choice if you want to add some volume to your upper body, so consider wearing one when you want to make your feminine curves stand out. The self-tie waist will accentuate your waistline, while the wide lapels that fold below the neckline recreate the modern structured shape designers and fashionistas love so much. Choose a monochrome beige, black or gray oversized coat, so you can experiment with various chromatic combinations when it comes to shoes, jewelry and accessories.

Coat with contrast sleeves

A slim fit coat with contrast sleeves looks really relaxed yet trendy, the perfect choice for a cool “casual Friday” outfit for the office. It looks great with classic shirts and skinny jeans, as well as with A-line skirts or pleated minis. Add some suede plumps or high-heeled ankle boots and you will look elegant enough for a day at the office, but also trendy enough to go out with your friends for afterhours dinners or parties. Opt for leather-like contrasting sleeves and a slim fit cut - your arms will look thin and sleek, while the tailored silhouette will give a flattering feminine allure to your appearance.

Belted coat with wide lapels  If you want to highlight your waistline, there’s nothing sexier than a belted coat with wide lapels. The belt squeezing the middle and the lapels that balance out the upper body create the perfect hourglass silhouette that never goes out of style and always makes you stand out. Wear the belted coat with a tight fitting short dress and high heels pumps or ankle boots, so you can flaunt your elongated legs. Opt for a monochrome coat in a classic or neutral color (gray, black, beige etc.) with contrasting inner lining - this bicolored effect adds an effortless touch of style to any office outfit.

Boho long coat

A long coat is a must for the cold season, as you can wear it with both pants and skirts or elegant office dresses. The latest fashion trends draw attention to minimalist and sophisticated silhouettes, so look for a long coat with structured cut and straight hemline, as well as elegant shawl collars and classic single button fastening. Black or beige coats are the easiest to mix & match, but for the ultimate office look, opt for a boho colorful print that will add a touch of style and sophistication to any all black or nude elegant outfit!

Wearing a Long Sleeved Maxi from Day to Night

For women's fashion.

Posted on 2015-12-07 by CEFashion

With life feeling like it’s on fast-forward, we often find ourselves having to run from the office to a night out without just a few minutes to freshen up. Being able to go home and get ready is becoming a luxury, but that doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice style. A little pre-planning can take your look from day to night with just a few tweaks.

The key to looking like you took hours to pamper yourself is choosing a piece that’s a shape-shifter. A long sleeved maxi dress is ideal for transitioning from a chic daytime look to stylish evening style. Go from your cubical to happy hour without any obstacles. Here’s how to do it:

A few wardrobe essentials can effortlessly transform your look from day to night. All you need to plan are your layering pieces, shoes, and accessories.

Daytime

Pair your maxi dress with a comfortable layering piece that’s perfect for the office or errands. A relaxed blazer, distressed denim jacket, or slouchy cardigan will do the trick.

Flat ankle boots or oxfords with your long sleeved maxi dress will create a look that’s stylish yet practical for the daily grind.

Keep the accessories to a minimum; the workday doesn’t need a soundtrack. Your colleagues won’t always appreciate how cute your noisy bangles are. Accessorize your outfit with a gold timepiece that will stick with you at night. Choose a cross body bag instead of a tote that can also double as a clutch, if need be.

When the sun goes down

This is where your layering piece will be working two shifts. Whether you’ve chosen a denim jacket, a slouchy cardigan, or a relaxed blazer, all of these choices can be dolled up for your evening look. Score!

Swap your flat boots for a pair of stacked booties. If your plans are a little fancier, choose a bootie with a thin high heel to dress up your look even more. A change of shoes will instantly transform your outfit.

Now, the bangles can come out to play. Conclude your busy day and take on the night with a statement necklace, your favorite arm candy, and that go-to cross-body bag.

If you want to take it a step further, keep a tube of dark lipstick in your bag. Going from a nude lip to a sultry deep red will make all the difference. Cheers!

6 Ways to Make Yourself Look Younger

For menswear, women's fashion.

Posted on 2015-11-29 by CEFashion

If you want to fight back against the signs of aging, there are a few ways you can give yourself a more youthful appearance. Looking younger doesn’t always require having to go through expensive and painful cosmetic surgical procedures, and there are a few simple changes you can make to achieve the look you want.

Don’t Dress Too Young

You might think that it’s a good idea to wear clothes that teenagers and young adults wear in order to look younger. Doing so, however, can actually make you look older and draw unwanted attention from others. You should wear clothes that are appropriate for your age and show off your figure in the most flattering way.

Go Easy On the Black

Dressing in black garments can create the illusion of having a slimmer figure, but wearing too much black can give you an older and more ridged appearance as you age. Plus, as you get older, your skin will likely appear paler and have more lines and wrinkles, and wearing too much black can accentuate these tell-tale signs of aging.

Choose a New Hairstyle

Updating your hairdo is one of the best ways to fight back against aging. A good stylist can cut and shape your hair in a way that draws more attention to your best facial features. You may even want to consider coloring your hair to hide any gray. Finding a salon that specializes in contemporary haircuts can be a challenge. Instead of just settling for a traditional haircut, take the time to look up salons that offer innovative cuts and styling techniques, such as Anne Welsh Salon and others that you can find with a little research.

Use Moisturizer Liberally

The best skin moisturizers on the market are formulated to prevent skin from becoming dry and further damaged by the elements. When you use moisturizer on a regular basis, you’ll also be able to combat certain problems that can age skin faster. Skin that’s well-moisturized can give you a younger, healthier glow in a way that looks natural.

Stay Active

Regular exercise will make it possible for you to maintain a healthy weight and good muscle mass, which can work wonders if you’re trying to appear younger. Exercising will also likely improve your figure and make it easier for you to fit into stylish clothing that can make you look and feel more vibrant.

Maintain Good Dental Health

In addition to preventing cavities and other dental problems, maintaining good dental health can brighten your smile. Your teeth will look whiter and healthier, which can help take years off your appearance. You may even want to consider going to a dentist for teeth whitening or other cosmetic dental procedures that can keep your smile looking great.

Looking younger doesn’t have to take a great deal of time and extra effort. Making just a few simple changes in your appearance can give you the end results you want.
