MEAGHAN SMITH PERSONAL STYLIST

You might recall a couple of weeks ago I talked about how to wear black and white.  Hopefully by now you’ve had a chance to go through your wardrobe and consider what black and white pieces you own and have been able to come up with many different ways to wear them.

Now it’s time to add another color(shade) into the mix.

Grey.

You might think you can’t wear grey, but don’t give up on it til you’ve tried several different shades. (For example a light grey might make you look a bit washed out, but a charcoal could be fine)  Or if you like it and feel you can’t (don’t want to) wear it near your face, consider a shoe, pair of jeans, skirt, bag or pants.

As autumn approaches it’s time to think about what could be added to your wardrobe to transition it from the warmer to cooler weather.

A light trench coat is one such piece worth considering because it offers so much versatility.

Wear it to work with a skirt and blouse, out for dinner with your jeans, throw it over your shoulders if you’re going to a wedding or wear it casually to a gallery or while you’re watching your kids play sport on the weekend, with your boots or sneakers.

If your style is not too classic look for something a bit different…edgier and unique (like the one pictured).  Contrary to popular thought, trench coats come in various versions of the original style.

As with everything you wear always think about whether the style is flattering for your body shape and inspect it from head to toe, (don’t forget back and side on too) to ensure the fit is right.

Even the most simple combination of  jeans and t-shirt can become a chic outfit by adding a smart jacket, a beautiful bag, a great shoe, an interesting belt or a piece of statement jewellery.

The key is to make sure that tee and those jeans fit and flatter.

Make your essential wardrobe basics look interesting – by not forgetting the decoration.
