BIG NEWS AND NEED-TO-KNOW INFO IN EASY BITES
Bella HadidGO OFF THE GRID
Doubling up is done best
by having one,
non-checkered somethin‘
in the mix. A sexy bralet
(à la Bella) is bang-on,
because this tricky little
b*stard doesn’t blend easy
with everything.BABY-BAG IT
Welcome to that elusive
perfect occasion to wear a
microbag—just choose a
hue that tallies (but doesn’t
match) your checks.CIGAR-SHARP LEGS
With a big print like
monochrome plaid taking
over your body, a busy
silhouette is a no-no.
Enter the long-legged
lines of high-waisted
cigarette pants...BLAZER BASICS
Your inner, five-year-old
‘matching-matching’ self
gets free reign with this
look. Mix the silhouette
up by knotting it at the
waist (extra vintage
points for that), or, if
you’re feeling more
brazen, do away with the
knot and bare that bralet
proud, baby.FACE GAME:
CHILL
We’re talking nude lips,
slicked-back hair and
rose-hued lids (throw in
some Lennon sunnies for
extra swag). The idea is to
let your outfit shine—and
it’ll do that less with bold,
red lippie and winged
eyeliner.SHOES ON POINT
The right shoes, in this
case, are white shoes.
With a monochrome plaid
suit, your accessories will
always tilt to the black
side of the scale, and so,
a cool white on your feet
is a great equaliser. We’d
go with pumps or stilettos
to get a little extra height
which always adds to
streamlined pants.By:
