Luka Sabbat is probably one of my favourite people for fashion inspiration. Here he wears a plaid grey suit for a feature in GQ with a colour blocked cardigan underneath. His personality comes through with all stacks of badass silver jewelry.

The easiest way to make a suit look effortless is with a pair of sneakers. I paired this grey plaid suit with red Adidas x Alexander Wang sneakers. I also ditched the handbag and just used my LV agenda and clutch instead.

Even after all of these years Mary-Kate Olsen continues to dominate the fashion world without even trying. I love how she layered a bunch of necklaces to go with her oversized navy suit.

I wore this pink gingham Zara suit (from their spring 2019 collection) for my best friends baby shower. I wanted to dress up and still wear pants so I opted for a suit. A pink satin blouse and hot pink metallic Gucci loafers makes the outfit more fun and contemporary and less stuffy.

How To Wear Green Right Now
Admittedly I’ve never been a fan of the colour green until recently. Something clicked in my brain one day and so the obsession began.
In addition to picking up a green Loewe puzzle bag, I also treated myself to an impractical pair of satin florescent green Balenciaga flats. (Impractical in the sense they’re hard to walk in for one. They’re also satin which means every stain would show so god forbid I spill anything.)
Nevertheless, the addition of green shoes feels refreshing, especially when worn with all black. There’s something edgy about the contrast that speaks to me.
For a more subtle look, wear a neutral coloured outfit with a green accent. On the opposite side of the spectrum, wear head to toe green for a bold monochromatic look. And finally, wear a swipe of green shadow on the eyes while leaving the rest of the makeup neutral for a cool and unexpected twist.

Why I'm Loving THIS Cult Favourite Bag After All This Time
When Balenciaga's creative director, Demna Gvasalia, launched his first bag for the brand back in 2016 it sent a craze through the fashion world.
Whether you love or hate it, I for one thought the Bazar tote was cute but far too large and bulky for everyday use. That is until I saw the black and grey colour motif on sale for over 50% off recently and I immediately thought, “Yup, I’m gonna do it.” You all know I love a good sale.
Now that I've used the bag a few times I still believe it’s too big for everyday use. (I have the medium size btw.) However, I know it’ll make for an excellent travel bag as the 15” x 14.5” size comfortably fits my MacBook Pro, notebook, tech stuff, small vlogging camera, makeup bag, and even a change of clothes if needed.
I'd been looking for a good tote bag with a zippered top for a while now so I'm happy to have come across the Bazar tote on sale. Plus, Balenciaga seems to be one of the only designers that truly speaks to me these days.

When Hedi Slimane left Saint Laurent so many years ago it left a massive hole in my heart. (Don’t even get me started on Hedi at Celine because I am not a Celine girl. Can someone just give the man his own label already?)
And then it happened again when Riccardo Tisci left Givenchy. Sure, his current work at Burberry is brilliant and everything the brand needed to bring it to the now, but it’s Demna Gvasalia's edgy, wearable designs at Balenciaga that resonate with my personal style.
I digress.
I finally understand the craze behind this bag. It's practical and chic all while making a fashion statement and I can't be mad at that. Now I just need somewhere to travel to.

Summer Style: White Linen Suit
With the temperature feeling like 40 degrees Celcius this past week, it’s been hard to get dressed and leave the comforts of my air-conditioned home. I’ve survived the heatwave by wearing oversized t-shirts, sweatpants, loose legged trousers, but not shorts. Don’t ask because I don’t understand it myself. To each their own.
Another staple I’m loving right now is the breezy linen suit. I wore this one with a simple white ribbed tank, Alexander Wang flat sandals (circa 2014, similar here), a brown leather Hermes bracelet, and my green mini Loewe bag from the spring 2019 collection (sold out, similar for fall 2019 here). The linen is light and breathable and the addition of colour through the accessories brings the outfit to life. Easy Peasy.

As a previous denim-addict, I can say that I’ve tried it all, skinny, mom, boyfriend, girlfriend, bootcut, super flares. Name it and I’ve probably worn it.
With that being said the straight cut jeans have been on my mind recently. They make a simple tank and strappy sandals look chic and effortless. Top off the look with a blazer if you’re headed to the office or have a date later that night.

6 All-Black Outfits To Try Right Now
Wearing any colour head to toe is probably the easiest thing to do when getting dressed. It also makes a statement without trying too hard but if not done right, it can look flat. Different textures and fabrics should fix that. Leather, silk, cotton, linen, terry cloth, patent leather - basically any contrasting fabric mixed and matched will add dimension and make an outfit come to life.
With that being said, below are six all-black outfits to take you through summer. From the office, to a night out, and weekend wear, there should be something for everyone.

Josefine pairs black leather trousers with a simple tank and Lady Dior bag. I’ve worn my own version of this outfit but styled it with a blazer and white Manolo slingbacks.

Julie Pelipas might just be one of the chicest women on the planet. The addition of the reddish-brown mules with her all black outfit breaks the rules of this post just a bit, but I certainly don’t mind.

Love the addition of the tall cowboy boots with the long slit skirt and simple tank as worn by Christine Centenera.

A slip dress worn with a distressed black t-shirt and tied in the front is perfect for date night. Opt for a silky slit skirt if that’s more of your thing.

There’s something about a piece of clothing with a gigantic designer logo on the back that I’m just completely obsessed with these days. Simple on the front and loud and in your face on the back. Love.
Below are my favourite 9 designer pieces. From the MM6 Margiela trench coat with a logo that wraps around the body, to the Balenciaga tie neck button up shirt, and the glossy oversized jacket that reads Givenchy on the back, these designers have all gotten the memo that it’s all about the back.
