I’m really quite enjoying doing these posts, it really makes you think about your wardrobe and how you can carry one piece from look to look.

I know there are a lot of people out there who are completely over the whole mullet skirts and dresses, you know the whole business in the front party in the back but I wanted to show what can be achieved but changing accessories and other items to change the feel of the outfit completely.

Here I have created a nighttime look and a daytime look. As you can see by simply changing a a few pieces, well it’s nearly the whole outfit but I’m trying to demonstrate you can certainly use one item of clothing in different circumstances.

Makeup can also set the tone of your outfit, it’s always good to think about the complete look. Don’t just stop at what you are wearing on the lower parts of your body.

I think the best choices for these two outfits would be a gorgeous smokey eye for the evening look, very cliche I know, but it’s a safe and classic choice.

For the more casual daytime look I would personally have the makeup far more neutral and keep it fresh.

So I’m hoping I’ve given someone out there some what of an idea on how they can change it up a bit and work with what they already have.

I have an odd fascination for the high low look, I don’t have anything in my wardrobe that fits the classic definition but I do love asymmetry in general.

I like the idea of an unconventional pairing and mixing things up with texture and bursts of floral:

What do you think?

Hey All!

We’re slowly incorporating fun and different things to the blog and this week we are introducing ‘1 Item – 3 Ways’. This is to show you all a few things!

One: That a particular item isnt reserved for someone with one style.

Two: To show you how different (and sometimes how similar) Bec, Cait and Myself are.

Three: its fun to mix and match different styles.

This week we have gone for the ‘Pixie Collar’, a delicate collar that can be included on a shirt, bought separately and added to items or even come in the form of jewellery.

Personally, I wasn’t a fan of the ‘pixie collar’. I put it in the ‘way too girly’ pile but then I thought about it and had a bit of a play on Polyvore and came up with a look that I deemed cool enough for someone like myself, not in any way super girly, to wear.

I’ve added some ‘harsh’ contrasts with studs and leather and while they make this out fit very ‘rock star’ the collar ensures that it is still a feminine look for a young woman to wear!

So, what do you think? Is the pixie collar something you would consider adding to your wardrobe or will you leave this one?

Pixie Collars are not something that I would personally choose to wear because I look a lot better in an open round collar or V neck so this was very challenging for me.

So I have tried to find looks that I like rather than looks that I would wear and here are three looks that I think would be a lot of fun.
