So I'm quite excited to help a lady on her wardrobe makeover, especially it's my first time.
She works for a local political organization and might stand for an election in the coming year.
The day I went shopping with her was the first time I met her in person.
I'm not being mean here, but to be honest, she doesn't look like she's in her early 20s, nor does she looks like she's a city dweller.
Couldn't post photos here because of her job.
Goal: 1) Create a more professional look 2) Smart casual wear that suits her age & needs of her job
Before: oversized clothes that hide her figure, baggy pants, midi skirts
Bought:
1) Fitted Blazers
-buy navy, dark grey, be careful with black: black shows the quality of fabric, cheap ones look too intern-like
-longer, not cropped: slightly-boyfriend blazers look better & more fashionable
-versatile: a must-have item that looks good with skinny jeans, dresses
-Got her something like this, in navy
2. Skinny jeans: bought dark & white
3. Chiffon shirts & silky tops: my current favourites of the season
-Keep it simple & elegant, no excessive lace or frills
4. Crisp white shirt: a good fitted one is a fashion staple, must-have & goes with everything
With her height, most items look good on her, but I spent some effort to convince her try different styles & colours.
At the end of the day, it's all worth it.
Love,
N
