Recently I got asked in an interview to share my most iconic styling tips. As I immediately responded with "I just do something random", I figured after all these looks I must do with the intension of dressing "right". 

My dressing procedure always starts off with the piece I am most certain I'd like to wear (in the outfit above that was my new crop top), followed by a thorough search for the combination that has a certain added value or even better, a contradicting value. 

An added value could be anything, a matching color, an eye-catching bag or a pair of magnificent shoes. But a contradicting value ? Indeed, I like to contradict my style within my looks. Wait, let me explain. By choosing a boyfriend/shredded jeans in combination with a classy tight-fitted crop top, I tend to give outfits more power. It's the contrast of fitting and styles (classy versus somewhat shabby) that allows me to dress more diverse and maybe even more interesting. Well, at least I try to...

  1. I love that. To add something completely different to an item to toughen it up, style it down or make it more classy. Also I agree on the fact to pick first one item and then look for other items, it is an easier way to decided what to wear. And the outfit is stunning, as always :)
    love,
