TWEAK&STYLE

It’s the 5th of January 2015 and it is cooking outside, barely 8:30am on this beautiful Monday morning and the temp must be around 45 degrees already, finally welcome summer – for me as a fashion designer/stylist/per… etc etc and as a woman who has a more than few KG’s on her ass, I struggle with summer, love the season but eish the clothing is a little more of a little less than I like! 

Anyone who does not like their legs, their arms, their lardy knees, their kankles, their tummy, their hips or their thunder thighs is going to have an issue with Summer Style.  The colours are brighter, the prints are stronger, white is predominant and sleeveless is everywhere.  Now come on, how is a chick supposed to illusion dress when half her body is exposed and all the colours in season are created to emphasis your thighs!! 

I do have a few secrets if you would permit me to share…

My top 5 best buys in Summer

Dress of the day – A blue and white printed dress, fitted over the bust with scoop neckline, cap sleeve and flared hemline which ends just above the knee

-     Perfect for women who want to cover their top arms

-     Who have thighs and a slight tummy

-     Who don’t mind a little leg

                                                   Jo Borkett R 699

Blouse of the day – a wrap top that is stitched on the side seams, its printed with a brilliant v neckline and ends at the hipline

-     Perfect for a bust line

-     Spot on for illusion dressing any tummy

-     Print is superb as print always distracts

-     Various colours to connect with anything

Ruby in the Dust R 599

Trouser of the year – I am a little bias as it is one of ours – designed to flatten the tummy, hide the thigh and is flawless around the hip area as well has the perfect bootleg

-     If thighs are your issue, these are the trousers

-     The bootleg ensures your hips look smaller as the hemline is wider than your hip line

-     The colour is black – duh! Great thing tho, created in stretch fabric and is light weight for all seasons

TWEAK R 650

Best jacket is without a doubt from Stuttafords, its pricy but one of my absolute must haves, offered in black or white, panelled to perfection and has a single hook ‘n eye to synch in your waist

-     Lines to create your waist

-     Offered in black or white (I prefer white for summer)

-     Hook ‘n eye to disguise your tummy

Stuttafords R 1299

Last must have is the wedge sandal for summer style, wear with a dress, a skirt, a trouser or tailored shorts, this particular style has an ankle strap, normally a no no but for those ladies wanting to conceal their kankles then you would be wearing long trs or skirt anyway so my thinking is splash out and wear the colour – coral and tan, this shoe goes with practically everything

-     Two tone to ensure wearability with all

-     A slight wedge for a little elevation

-     For those who love the neutrals then this is the shoe to spice and splash a little colour

Nine West R 1299
