T-shirts, T-shirts
While Maria Grazia Chiuri’s famous ‘We Should All be Feminists’ T-shirt is fast becoming the 'It' item, a variety of equally captivating and empowering shirts are available for early morning activities. Whether you’re meeting a long lost friend for breakfast at that new café or simply enjoying a spot of window-shopping, look to powerful statements across silk cotton shirts and tuck delicately into high waisted jean trousers. Pair with Celine flats or Prada sandals to complete the look.
Oldies Are Goodies
The best way to make your mark in a time of fast fashion and consistently changing trends while embodying the effortlessness of the off-duty look is to carry your favourite bag. Classics are always a safe bet, no matter what you're wearing, such as Chloe’s Faye satchel in nude suede, which complements any ensemble. Alternatively, a highly coveted Hermès Birkin will instantly elevate your outfit from sophisticated-casual to a must-have iconic.
Evening Alternatives
While some of us may feel self-conscious at the thought of attending evening excursions in something less formal, the off-duty look can be perfected for such an occasion - it's all about the right selection of items. Pair slim ankle-grazing trousers in black silk with statement heels and a piece of high jewellery. A more-than-appropriate look can be achieved with a carefully chosen easy-to-wear tops, jean trousers and leather jacket. The emphasis here should be on pieces that neither detract nor overpower you.
