Dinner party outfit ideas that aren't jeans and a top!

There is nothing wrong with wearing jeans and a top and it obviously depends on your lifestyle. But it doesn't hurt to change things up occasionally and opt for that bolder accessory or wide leg trousers.

1 - A lace slip dress is such an effortlessly cool item that
you can pair with a blazer/cardigan or throw a jumper over your shoulders. Finish the look with mules/ kitten heels or trainers plus accessories.
2 - Wide leg trousers and a silk shirt. An chic easy combo,
elevate with heels and a chunky accessory
3 - Oversized shirt over a skirt with bold a accessory and
flats/low heels, let the accessory be the staple piece like here
4 - Polka dot top and trousers. Polka dots are trending and timeless.
5 - A skirt with a lightweight knit/tank or halter neck. Again could pair with a blazer, trench and elevate with heels or if more low key a slim trainer

It wouldn’t be spring without a blouse.

It’s a great staple you can dress up or down. Pair with jewellery, boots and a blazer to elevate the look.

#LTKstyletip #LTKuk #LTKspring

When it comes to pairing footwear with your barrel leg jeans or trousers stick to a slim trainer to help balance the volume from above. Avoid anything too chunky as it will overwhelm the whole look.

Brands to look for Nike 1000, Adidas Samba, SL 72, or Gazelle, Nike Cortez, Vans Old Skool, and minimalist suede options like Miu Miu.

Rain Coat Edit

Probably one of the most useful items you can have right now to take you through to summer. Opt for heavier weight ones for winter and lighter ones for the warmer seasons.

The longer version are effortlessly stylish and great for the countryside. Shorter ones are better for the city and festivals.

As a personal stylist, this is one of the hardest working pieces I recommend to clients.

The v neck jumper is all about layering. I’ve styled it three ways:
- over a white top for an everyday, modern, fresh off duty look
- layered over a polo neck for a refined, pulled together look
- over a crisp shirt to add structure and polish

It’s a versatile, flattering, and easy to wear which is exactly why it’s become a staple in so many mums wardrobe.

By adding a pattern, whether it’s a top or an accessory is a great way to elevate the simplest of outfits. Leopard print comes back on trend every year so you no doubt may have an item in your wardrobe already. It’s also a neutral colour which means you can style it with pretty much anything.

Day 3 of 5 of Elevated Everyday Outfit Ideas

It’s all about the slip skirt today. Keeping it neutral and simple to allow for the skirt to be the main feature that elevates this look. For a cosier footwear option I’d pair with long black or brown boots.
