FarFetch: Style the Sunnies



Recently I was contacted by the company FarFetch asking me to put together a stylish outfit based around a pair of sunglasses of my choosing. Of course I obliged to the offering of scouring their site full of gorgeous fashion pieces and creating an amazing outfit that is chic and effortless for spring. 

I'm quite a casual dresser from day-to-day but I do love to experiment when it comes to statement pieces and trends. I love the relaxed yet tailored structure to this outfit, it exudes put togetherness whilst not trying to hard. 

The Glasses- The centre piece of this outfit. Personally I have quite an oval face shape which is more suited to wayfarer glasses and particularly rounded frames, such as those above. The bold shape of the frames balances out my features and subdues my jawline. I am particularly drawn to tortoise shell designs as they appear more flattering on my fair skin tone than a stark black frame, warming up the colour palette of the outfit.
If you need more help unique to your face shape you can find more details over at FarFetch here.

The Gilet- I wanted to keep the outfit light for spring however in England there is still a bit of a chill in the air around this time of year so layers are always essential. This fur lined gilet is the perfect neutral tone to keep in line with the earthy colour tones of the palette, as well as adding a touch of allure to the overall look. Fringe is still so on trend and will be throughout spring, adding a three-dimensional aspect to the outfit.

The Shirt- Isn't this just captivating? As soon as I saw it I knew it had to be a part of the outfit, the animal print gives a nod to the tortoise shell on the sunglasses and the colours just screams spring. I love the contrast against the black as this adds an edge to the clean cut shapes. This shirt is slightly over-sized and I'd tuck it in to appeal to the relaxed aesthetic. 

The Trousers- As for these, I wanted to keep in sync with the refined shape of the whole outfit, so by keeping the trousers fitted it allows for a crisp silhouette. The cropped cuffs flatter the leg, elongate the calf and grace the ankle, obliging a devastating shoe.

The Shoes- These Jimmy Choo's complete the look with a khaki flare and a bronze lace. The ankle height complements the cropped trousers and the cut outs accompany the peep toe to add to the spring vibe of the ensemble. With wrap around laces the casual vibe is reestablished from head to toe, breaking down the strong angles of the other pieces.

The Clutch- Just to finish of the outfit with a practical touch, this clutch adds texture and cleanliness to the earthen tones, picking up the colour palette and harmonising with the shirt.

All of these items are linked to and can be found on the FarFetch website, along with many other amazing choices. You can find their whole range of sunglasses here

I really enjoyed putting together this look and hope it gives you some inspiration this spring.
