news from the studio


A client once said to me that she always had a slight hesitation about accepting invites to social events like race days, because of the pressure to find a new outfit – and the associated costs.

Planning your race outfit need not be difficult…

Consider the following ideas:

 Colour blocking - jacket, skirt and shirt outfits are an excellent choice, you might have a simple skirt or pants in your wardrobe and only need to purchase a new shirt or jacket to team with it.

Using accessories - the classic little black dress or a plain coloured dress can look like new with different coloured accessories, particularly if the accessories are this season's colour.


  Blending patterns - mixing up your patterns is right on trend at the moment - check out what's in the wardrobe and give those favourite pieces another run.

   

Try wearing a new item to layer a dress  - if you have a dress with an interesting hemline or pattern, or a tried and tested classic that has seen a few race days already, layer it up with a shirt or cardi for a new look.



And the headpiece ties it all together!!! Ideas for making the most of your headpieces coming soon.
