You can wear it under your dress or on top and knotted on the hip. It not only allows you to wear a regular bra 🙌🏼 but it adds a layer making it more visually interesting. I popped a belt on with some bright flats and finished the look off with a hat. Spring time perfection.

I grabbed this dress from @shopimpressions. Tee is @target as well as the hat and belt.

This came in from @eloquii yesterday and I couldn’t resist the urge to wear it today. It’s two pieces so this white shirt dress is definitely going to get some use this summer as a coverup.  You can shop this and all my daily looks at @liketoknow.it by following me in the app and screenshotting this picture. Easiest shopping ever.

The theory is because it is predictable it’s easier to watch and has a calming effect. Fast forward to me switching between Grey’s Anatomy, Schitt’s Creek and The New Girl when I’m stressed out. Do you do this too?? Tell me I’m not alone!

Amazon Essentials are some of my go to knit pieces. They are comfortable, true to size and hold up well to a wash and wear lifestyle.  I’m rounding up a few of my favorites on @liketoknow.it. They have a jumpsuit that was my uniform last summer and it should be in your closet.

I feel like all of my posts are about the weather I feel like all of my posts are about the weather lately. But seriously. It’s still cold. They tell me it’s going to warm up this week but I’m worried it’s just fake spring. That groundhog said, I said six more weeks of winter.

It’s very cold and I have run out of cute things to wear while semi freezing. It’s just not worth it. My clothes are not made for wind and super cold temps. Is there a brand you love that makes warm clothes for the freezing days?  This southerner needs advice.

Outfit Details: Dress // Shoes // Earrings // Belt

Last year on Project Runway Ashley Longshore Art appeared as a guest judge. Ashley was an amazing asset to the judging panel and offered a lot of great thoughts, both positive and negative. One of the things that she talked about was one designer who created an oversized suit for her model. All the judges were discussing the difference between creating an oversized silhouette and something that swallows you.

Oversized styles are a current trend but not always the easiest to pull off. It seems counterintuitive to create a flattering outfit with pieces that are oversized. Tailored and form fitting seem to be the way we are trained to dress but sometimes pushing the limit of what we consider “flattering” can be fun.

Oversized pieces can be tricky so there is a method to how you wear them and how you style the outfits. I wanted to give you three guidelines to use when styling an oversized look.

Pick One Piece

This is one of the times that I will tell you, less is more. If you are going for an oversize jacket than pick a slim jean. If you want to wear a baggy pant then opt for a body suit or slim top. Yes, there are people who wear head to toe oversized styles but its a hard look to pull off. Stick to one oversize item and you will be good to go.

Belts Are Your Friend

We want what we wear to look good but we also want to feel good. I like to think of trends like getting into a pool. You can dip your toe in before fully emerging into the water. Trends are a bit of the same. With the oversized styles adding a belt will pull your outfit in and define your waist. If you aren’t feeling the all over voluminous dress than add a belt and nip the waist. Trends are meant to be starting points. You don’t always have to go all in. Make them your own.

Oversized Silhouette Doesn’t Mean Ill Fitting

As we learned in last weeks Project Runway episode we don’t want to sacrifice overall fit when wearing an oversize silhouette. Think about how it feels and look over your outfit at different angles. Does it look like the jacket is swallowing your body or it is adding a small additional layer to your frame? If the answer is yes think about sizing down or having the item tailored. We want to give the illusion of oversize without the item taking over our bodies.

Trends make fashion and dressing fun. Without them things would be pretty boring and mundane. It’s all about trying something new and adding them into your basics. Get excited because as spring approaches that means a whole new list of trends to try!

XO,

Tiffany
