Hi New Hipsters

Today’s outfit consists of a combination of black and gold. The classic yet sexy outfit consists of a chiffon black shirt with gold little studs, paired with a textured print leather pencil skirt with gold zipper detail. The outfit was completed with a pair of open-toe heels with gold detailed buckles, and for that oh so glamorous look i added my fur coat and burgundy floppy hat for those chilly days. All the pieces in this outfit were purchased from Woolworths, i am completely obsessed and impressed with their autumn and winter range this year. Woolworths has completely outdone themselves this year, not only have they provided clothing with quality in terms of good fabric, texture and style, they’re are completely up-to-date with the latest international trends with a local twist of course. I continuously find myself patronising the store because obviously i need everything in-store. Alright enough obsessing, since today is Sunday this is a great outfit to wear to church, brunch or lunch with the family. This is a very classy outfit and would be great for any formal event or occasion.

Hi New Hipsters

Today’s outfit has been inspired by my hot pink Zara blazer. If you can remember i wore the complete hot pink suit to my graduation, so instead of always wearing it as a complete suit, you can separate the pieces  and create a whole new look and outfit. Since it is Friday and start to the weekend, it is a perfect time to wear a smart casual more laid back fun outfit, as seen in my post today. This is a great outfit that can be carried through from day to the evening for that night out on the town. I’m really obsessed with faux leather leggings at the moment, in my opinion its much more comfortable in terms of fitting and shape than genuine leather pants. Not all of us can afford the real deal, so buying a pair of faux leather leggings from a brand and retailer such as Woolworths is the way to go for guaranteed quality and style. Overall i really love this look its very edgy, pretty and feminine at the same time.

Hi New Hipsters

Today’s post has been inspired by two of my favourite trends for winter, the gorgeous and bold royal blue colour and of course tough and sexy leather. I love the endless versatility that comes with leather, and how adding one or two leather items such as a jacket or skirt can add a little toughness, sexiness and edge to an outfit. In today’s outfit i’m wearing a leather skater skirt paired with a colour block blue and black shirt, for that fun, sexy yet feminine look. Royal blue as i’ve said before is one of my favourite colours for winter, and adds a lovely pop of colour to this leather and black ensemble. This is a very versatile outfit for winter which could be worn to work, on a date night or cocktail party.

Hi New Hipsters

Today’s outfit was inspired and styled for my academic graduation. I am completely obsessed with Zara and their wonderful collections, which is so classy and perfect for that elegant chic women on the go. It was my plan from the beginning  that i would purchase my graduation outfit from Zara. Upon arrival at Zara i scanned the store in search for a lovely dress, but was just not inspired by anything i saw for me personally. The moment i saw this gorgeous deep pink pant suit hanging on the rack, all of a sudden a fashion light bulb went off in my head and i had found the perfect outfit. It was just what i needed to standout, be unique and different from the rest. I decided to wear the suit as is without anything underneath for that chic daring runway look. Instead of wearing a ton of accessories, i accessorised the look by colour blocking with a pair of royal blue heels and clutch to complete my edgy bold and bright look. I love the colour combination especially for winter as if said before, just to add a little fun and colour to this dull season. Overall the ceremony was amazing and i set out to achieve what i was hoping for which was to be unique and different.

Hi New Hipsters

Today’s outfit is inspired by the monochrome trend which of course is the combination of black and white. I love this trend because it’s so classic and never grows old. Monochrome is the easiest trend to work no matter what season or time of the year and can be a show stopper if done right. There are many ways to style this look but my favourite is the classic chic work wear look. In my outfit today i wanted to go for that chic, classic, independent mom on-the-go look. My outfit is quit formal but i added a little comfort and edge by wearing my high waisted black jeans. I finished of the styling by accessorising with a pop of red in my lipstick and nail-polish and added silver accessories for that fresh classic look. This is a great outfit for those busy  work days, actually the styling reminds me of those chic classic women on the streets of London and New York.

Hi New Hipsters

Today’s look post is all about experimenting with fashion, from colours to textures, prints and styles. Today’s outfit is a complete experimentation of styling, from what other wise would seem as a formal elegant outfit has been edged out by adding the denim vest and beanie. I love how one can take a very simple outfit and change it up by adding a few pieces here and there. So i’ve finished off my outfit by adding silver accessories as seen by my handbag, heels and sunglasses. The combination of silver goes really well with the pop of red in my lipstick and nail colour. This is a semi formal outfit but can be taken from day time casual to chic formal evening wear, by simply removing the beanie and denim vest and adding a choker necklace and clutch. It is always fun to experiment with fashion, so lets get experimenting!!

Hi New Hipsters

Since we’ve made our transition into fall and soon winter, i’ve been putting together outfits to match the season. I’m truly excited for winter and those chilly days where we can rock our faux fur, knee length coats, boots and woolies. Since winter is a very dull and eerie time, rocking bold colours and prints is the way to go to add a little life and fun to the season. As seen in my outfit today i’m wearing a floral dress, which is a great print to stand out and look really pretty this winter. There are many ways of styling the dress, which i’ve styled as hippie streetstyle chic. A major trend to look out for this season is wearing beanies which brings an element of fun and grunge to an outfit, i’m really loving this look and will be incorporating more of it into my styling. As i’ve said bold colours are great for winter but does not necessarily need to be seen in your outfit. You can incorporate colour into your accessories and makeup, today i’m wearing a bright pink lipstick and nail colour to finish of my look, remember it’s all about keeping it fresh and fun.
