Everyday outfits
Wearing a shirt beneath knitwear comfortably
A shirt beneath a jumper can add a collar, a cuff and some warmth. The best combination leaves enough room for both garments to move.
THE EVERYDAY WARDROBE
Everyday outfits
Familiar pieces, different combinations. Find an outfit that works with the shape of your day.
Everyday outfits
Building a tonal outfit with clothes you own
A tonal outfit uses related shades rather than an exact matching set. Differences in depth and texture can make the clothes feel connected without becoming indistinct.
Everyday outfits
Deciding whether to tuck in your top
Tucking a top changes its length and where the outfit divides. It is a styling option, not a requirement for looking put together.
Everyday outfits
Balancing an outfit with a short jacket
A short jacket can leave more of a skirt or high-waisted trouser visible. Its usefulness depends on where it ends and what fits beneath it.
Everyday outfits
Giving black trousers more than one job
Black trousers can cover several parts of a week, but not every pair does every job. Begin with the fabric and fit of the trousers already in your wardrobe.
Everyday outfits
Adding shape to a loose dress
A loose dress does not need to be made fitted. If you want a little more definition, try small changes that preserve the ease that made you choose it.
Everyday outfits
Small changes to sleeves and cuffs
Sleeves and cuffs can change how an outfit feels without adding another item. A useful adjustment stays comfortable and does not need constant repair.
Everyday outfits
Taking white jeans beyond summer
White jeans can be useful on cooler days as well as in summer. Their weight, opacity and hem length matter more than the month on the calendar.
Everyday outfits
Trying a knitted polo as an everyday top
A knitted polo adds a collar without the separate layers of a shirt and jumper. The neckline and ribbed hem give you two useful points to adjust.
Everyday outfits
Wearing a waistcoat without a matching suit
A waistcoat does not need matching trousers. Worn on its own or over a light layer, it can bring structure to clothes you already use.
Everyday outfits
Making a long skirt practical for walking
A long skirt can be easy to wear when its hem and shape allow you to move normally. Start with the walk you will actually do, not just the mirror view.
Everyday outfits
Keeping printed trousers easy to wear
Printed trousers can carry most of an outfit’s visual interest. A plain top is a useful starting point, but it is not the only way to wear them.
