Expert’s pick #1: Wow the world with statement earrings
It can feel like there’s plenty going on with statement earrings, and there is. The expert’s trick is to keep everything else simple. Take a pared-back approach and team tasseled or long bejewelled numbers with denim or other low key looks.
Expert’s pick #2: Go for maximum volume on sleeve detailing
The fluted sleeve takes a back seat for now with the puffed sleeve fashion’s new favourite. If adding volume on top, streamline below to create a stylish contrast.
Expert’s pick #3: Wear more white
While black might be an easy go to, white is the colour that will make you stand out from the crowd this year.
Expert’s pick #4: Applique everything
Those in the know believe applique on denim looks incredible. With a current trend towards all things handmade and hippie, they suggest raiding craft shops to create your own style statement.
Expert’s pick #5: Try the colour of 2017 Greenery
This vibrant green has been named the colour of 2017, and while it looks like it could be tough to pull off, it’s going to be seen everywhere, so why not take a fashion risk and just give it a go.
Expert’s pick #6: Rock a dress over jeans
Fashionistas say if you are going to try this trend, you will need to commit. Find a gorgeous statement dress in fabric that falls well. The key is to wear the dress more as a coat. Layer up underneath or wear buttoned up to the waist, just make sure to keep the rest of the dress open.
Expert’s pick #7: Ban yourself from black this winter
While you might already have the perfect black winter coat, put it aside for a season. Instead look for a coat that’s colourful and bright and shake off those seasonal blues.
Expert’s pick #8: Forget oversized, the mini bag is where it’s at
It might be hard to imagine everything you need fitting in to such a small bag – but everyone loves a challenge, right?
**Expert’s pick #9: Rock the colour block*
Nothing says completely confident like colour blocking. The best thing about this trend is it’s not defined by a seasonal colour as such, choose what you love, add a contrasting pop – a bag, shoes or sunglasses – and you’re good to go.
