Nail the Laid Back Look

With autumn kicked in and winter fast approaching and the autumn/Winter 2011 collections hitting the shops now is a good time to give your look a shake up. Work and home wardrobes can differ quite significantly and with the laid back revolution well and truly in full swing its all about going urban.

We all love a pair of jeans and although designers scream dress up most of us are not quite ready to trade in our worn in denims or khakis. The trick is in putting together an outfit that screams comfort without screaming scruffy and sloppy.  Approach your casual weekend wardrobe in much the same way as you would you day to day work wardrobe. Choose outfits that are well combined carefully with your basic styles and colours in mind. Don’t neglect the footwear. Retro pumps are huge and white trainers just aren’t going to cut it. There is such a range of pumps in different fabrics and colours along with the fashionable worker boots.

Baggy boyfriend jeans are still everywhere so make sure you have these essentials. Team the baggy jeans with a pair of funky converse and cool t shirt or hoodie for the casual trendy look. Adding some Pauls Boutique and Superdry to your wardrobe is guaranteed to add fresh style and fashion.

With the ‘in between’ weather of autumn a weekend jacket to fight of the cool chill is a must have. I’m partial to the super casual look for the weekends as  after a working week in office wear its always nice to kick back and chill. With my weekend wardrobe consisting of a few different looks, the slouch around look requires a jacket all by itself. Get yourself a varsity bomber jacket or a Pauls Boutique quilted jacket. These are surprisingly versatile working on jeans, skinny or baggy, leggings, and casual skirts and tights.
