Own your style

Jessica Singh

How many of us actually love what we wear? or wear the outfits that best represent our personality? Its the very basic that we can do to make ourselves feel good and confident, and my client chitrangda epitomizes that beautifully. She is a successful program coordinator at a fitness club, former nutritionist and Yoga practitioner. Keeping her strong & vibrant personality in mind, i picked out two date-night looks for her.

  1. Checks are trending in 2018 and this ruffled green flowy silhouette adds a unique edge to the outfit. I paired it up with nude pink flats , bright green earrings from nordstrom and a peacock teal clutch. The self tie-up at the waist will make you the belle of the backyard garden party this year.

2. This Jora embroidered Peasant dress from Anthropology stole chitra’s heart away. The flowy peasant silhouette and the intricate cobalt blue embroidery on the sleeves, shoulder and hemline catches your eye immediately. Pair it up with minimal accessories and let yourself and the dress be the showstopper for the evening.

‘Less is more’

Jessica Singh

“Less is more” may be a cliché, but it’s a cliché for a reason. When sleek, simple minimalist style is done right, it can make more of an impact than even the loudest of outfits.

A project manager in the healthcare IT department and a part time Bollywood fitness instructor, my client ‘S’ is a versatile personality. Her style quotient is simple and clean. She does not enjoy wearing flashy or loud pieces and likes to keep it minimal. At our styling session , ‘S’ was looking to bring fresh fall outfits into her wardrobe which she could wear to work. Keeping her minimalist style in mind, i decided to experiment a little and introduce her to the world of prints and stripes.

Look 1 – Racing down on the either sides of formal or athleisure pants, athletic stripes are trending big this fall 2018. I put together a simple and classic outfit here. Red striped 3/4th sleeve basic top along with a semi casual athletic stripe pant from Zara. This simple, trendy yet sporty work-wear look is her favorite go-to outfit at work now.

Look 2 – ‘S’ was not very familiar with prints so i decided to bring that in, with this bright fall-colored printed floral shirt. Paired it up with a classic black trouser and tan boots. This simple, lapel collared printed shirt stands out by itself and blends in perfectly with her persona and style.

Look 3 – This was one of Zara’s unique stand-out prints. Who knew, two hooks interlocked with each other could look this chic and classy. The Flowy round neck silhouette and the padded shoulder yoke & cuffs add freshness to the outfit. And not to miss out the pleasing pastel blue shade clubbed together with a navy trouser and a pair of loafers. Simply effortless!

Bring on the Color

Jessica Singh

I have always believed that fashion is all about wearing what makes you feel good about yourself.  No age , number or size should hold you back from embracing your style and persona.

My client ‘S’ has spent almost 15 years working in technology. A mother of two beautiful daughters, she is passionate about education and making sure that girls are encouraged to pursue careers in STEM. She is also a certified Bollywood Fitness instructor and loves dancing in her free time.

Keeping her personality and personal style into consideration, i came up with 3 bold, sharp and bright looks for her.

  1. The LBD – She had around two black dresses in her closet, but none of them seemed to really fit her persona or rather she was not able to take the pieces that she loved and coordinate them creatively. After a lot of research, i fit her into this little black faux leather dress from Zara which fit her like a glove. The sleeveless lace trim and the ruffles and V neck added an edge to her style and immediately brought out her personality. We paired the outfit with her animal printed heels(animal prints are big this fall) from Jessica Simpson and a pair of round silver hoops. A perfect date night or girls night out outfit!

2. The Bold Colors – ‘S’ loves bold colors and patterns. Her favorite printed blouse from forever 21 was sitting in her closet for a while and she was wondering how she could pair that up and make it a fun-work look. I clubbed it with a sharp formal grey trouser from Nordstrom(from her wardrobe) . But yet Something was still missing . So i added in a nude pink blazer. The gathered ruffled cuffs added to the fun element that i wanted to bring into this casual fun work outfit along with a pop of yellow in the hoops!

3. Striped Contemporary look – Our third look was more contemporary and trendy. ‘S’ had a stripped skirt in her closet which was waiting to be put together. And since stripes are trending a lot this fall 2018, i decided to pair that up with a black front ruffled pin-tucked blouse from nordstrom(from her closet). For the star statement piece here, i picked up a bold red faux leather jacket from Zara. The flared hem added the fun element here. If you want to be the most attractive person or most attracted person in the room, make sure to bring on those bright bold attractive colors !

Rain Diary

Jessica Singh

The rainy season is almost back again here in Seattle. And nothing better than owning a chic and classy raincoat. I found this perfect lightweight one from @zara and its just as amazing as it looks.  It’s super light,soft and the polyester has a shine to it which I totally fell in love with!

The best detail is, that the hood is concealed into the collar with a zipper! How cool is that!
