Ideas to mix and match outfits

Waistcoat + graphic t-shirt + skirt+ heels

Have I mentioned I am addicted to House…. I have yet another of Cameron’s outfits to put to you!

Black waistcoat + cross t-shirt + flute skirt

Black sartorial fitted waistcoat with matching flared skirt and a cute military green t-shirt with the Red Cross on it (which I couldn’t find..), how great is that?! I was actually thinking… what about copying that with your personal work t-shirt?

Of course it’s nice with trousers too, which is more “her” trademark:

Black waistcoat + black trousers + doc t-shirt

It’s just a bit of fun, try it!

Colour blocking

As in one colour at the top (t-shirt/shirt + jacket) and a different one at the bottom, like so:

Boyfriend jeans made elegant

Of course it can be done with anything, not only jeans…I wouldn’t match the shoes to the top though because the colour-block effect would lose its strength.

Here are a few ideas:

ME+EM SLEEVELESS SWING JACKET black
ME+EM EVENING TEE Silk Jersey – Black
ME+EM BOY TROUSER Stretch Twill Tailoring – Oyster

or

MAISON MARGIELA Blazer light grey
ME+EM TIE NECK SILK BLOUSE Silk – Silver Grey
ME+EM BOY TROUSER Stretch Twill Tailoring – Navy
GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI DESIGN Sandals black patent

or

ME+EM LUXURY LEATHER BOMBER Leather – Soft Mink
ODIEUSES Blouse beige
ME+EM LUXE CREPE TROUSER Crepe – Black

I am not sure why but I prefer trousers, perhaps because there’s more fabric to create the “blocking” effect!

Blue shirt + army green trousers + heels

I am addicted to House, the television medical drama. I love his terrible attitude and sense of humour. I also love Cameron’s outfits, she is always very chic in a kind of “I mean business” way! I just finished watching an episode where she wears a fitted sky-blue shirt and elegant army green trousers, with heels of course (as one does with all standing!! but hey! it is only a program…I know..), anyway, she looks amazing! Here it is:

Blue fitted shirt + army green elegant trousers + long necklace + heels

It’s very difficult to find blue fitted shirts and green trousers that look good at reasonable prices, this is what I could muster:

I like the striped shirt/green trousers look too, even though a little more casual so perhaps I would change the sandals…
