Covering Up





There is no denying that dungarees and overalls are suddenly back in fashion. With summer season rolling around, it seems that every high street store from Topshop to Zara is stocking up on them. Now all of us probably have adorable childhood pictures wearing a pair of these denim outfits, I in particular used to rock a white floral barbie set, but the ones that celebrities have been decked out in are far from childish.

With varying degrees of styles of afore mentioned dungarees, they can be purchased in any fabric or print from denim to cotton, allowing for them to be worn day or night, festival or dinner date. There are really no constraints to the variety that they can be worn.

I was in Singapore a week or so ago and every single shop I walked into had them. They were in the form of denim pinafores, long overalls, short ones, suspender-esque ones, there were literally hundreds of designs; Topshop even stocked a pair with a leaf print that verged on gaudy! 

Alongside the trend for dungarees has been crop tops which seem to be in abundance at seriously cheap prices! Now I am assuming that these are slowly coming back due to the (predicted) hot summer ahead and the increasing number of high waisted bottoms from shorts to hi-lo skirts. Personally, I love them. If you have the body, you go out and rock them however you please, they probably won't be around enough for you to have a second chance! For me, it is simply more motivation to go to the gym. However, if you are a bit on the curvier side, you can still wear them with high-waisted outfits as it won't reveal your midriff, just probably try not to wear them with low slung jeans.

I love dungarees and will definitely be investing in a pair when I return for my GAP year (1 month to go!) and I can't wait to style them!

Look for Less: Whitney Port

Style Idol: Whitney Port

Whitney Port has such amazing style that I felt that I should write a post about her. 
She has a unique boho style which is so simple yet put together.
Below are some of my favourite looks:










I really love her in all outfits above as she looks simply gorgeous. My favourite look of hers is with the blue shirt and beige trousers. It is such a simple outfit yet she really adds something to it making it more sophisticated and glamourous.

Style for Less: Kendall Jenner

As you've probably guessed, I have a huge style crush on Kendall Jenner. Therefore I have combined some style for less outfits that she's worn!

Jubilee Fashion: Millie Mackintosh, Amy Childs, Next and Aspinal

You should be ashamed of yourself if you haven't heard of the Queen's Jubilee celebration. Lots of designers are taking this onboard and interweaving this throughout their designs. Here are some of my favourites:

Millie Mackintosh for St Tropez:




Amy Childs Jubilee Collection: (not a fan, but she goes with the theme)







Robert Sanderson:



Hobbs:

Aspinal of London:

Style Idol: Kendall Jenner

I will very happily say that I am in love with the Kardashian Klan and KUWTK never fails to make me laugh, however my favourite of them all is Kendall Jenner. Whether she puts together her wardrobe or not, doesn't matter, because she always looks amazing!
Here are some of her looks for less!

2011 Style Awards

Project X Premiere


Day Out in NewYork 

Sheer Luck

One common trend at the moment is the sheer look, however one I adore is the sheer sleeves idea. They add a touch of modesty to the outfit but don't overpower at all. 

This is a Helmut Lang sheer sleeved blazer but here is a high street equivalent:

Sheer Sleeves have also been found on dresses and tunics such as the one Nina Dobrev wore by Elie Saab. See below.

A black version, seen on Kate Winslet has been picked up in highstreet fashion brands such as New Look.


New Look has one of a similar style: Yumi Spot Mesh Peplum Dress

Celebrity Style Crush: Kim Kardashian

On a personal level, Kim Kardashian is a breath of fresh air in the celebrity world for girls with a curvaceous figure. Although she may not have done anything worldly, she does have a great figure as well as a fab style.
