Layers Upon Layers

Maxi (or floor-length) dresses were one of the trends for the summer last year. And who says you can't wear them during the cold months too? Definitely not me. Dresses, in my opinion, are the most versatile piece a girl can have in her wardrobe. It's one of those things where you look like you made an effort planning an outfit without actually making the effort. Best. Feeling. Ever. Also, layering is key to keep warm when the temperatures drop. Wearing a black poncho on top of the dress and vest slims you down although you have three different layers on. It won't look bulky at all.

Wear Monochrome White

When I don't wear colour, I do it monochrome! A full monochromatic look may seem a little risky but if it's done right, they can look like very effortless and put together. The key is incorporating different textures when dealing with one colour. Not only you'd want each piece to be unique but should also be cohesive. This prevents you from looking like a solid block of colour. I paired this jogger-like, cargo-style pant with a white button down shirt that has a grid pattern. As for shoes, I opted for a navy stripe print to tie the outfit from head to toe. Finish it off with a faux leather jacket for a look that's both edgy and cool.

Stripes Everywhere

SUNNY DAYS ARE HERE! Finally the days are getting longer. Plus, above zero degree temperatures during the day. I am slowly adapting my body to the changes by not wearing leggings under my pants or by wearing normal shoes (ie. sneakers, flats), although my wool coats won't be going anywhere just yet.

Texture Variety

Just like colour mixing, pairing a variety of textures together is both simple and complex. I know wearing a monochrome outfit with different textures will do the trick. But what if colour joins in on the fun? That's when it gets a lot more challenging. In this outfit, I've incorporated a couple of dark and light colours.

Back to School as a Marketing Student

There's going to be a lot happening this 2015. For me, at least. One major thing is I decided to stay in school and started this month. I was previously taking Fashion Management and now I registered for a three-year Marketing program. Last week was the first week of school and I have a feeling it will be an exciting semester. My schedule is amazing because I got approved to be exempted to a couple of classes and my professors are great so far.

Burgundy Midi

Oh, hi! If you're following me on instagram (username: tiffanyc_), then you must've seen the huge change I've done with my hair recently. If not, I'll let you guess what it is ;) although I just gave away a very useful hint. Anyway, I had a phase where I had to purchase every midi skirt I see at retail stores.

Luckily, I got over it but I still shop for them if something really catches my eye. 

Orange and Lime

Funny story. I got this pumpkin orange dress at H&M a couple years ago -- AND I NEVER GOT TO WEAR IT UNTIL THAT NIGHT! This is one sign that my clothing addiction is going way overboard. Imagine this dress hidden in my closet not for two months but for two years! Back then, I had no idea how to style it until it has been long forgotten.
