When
it comes to tradition, May signifies wedding season. It is when people are
searching for something old, something new, and I think something blue if I am
not mistaken? As exciting as the preparations might be on your ‘special day,’ it
is the right dress that seems to send brides to be into whack jobs. If you
admire tradition then go ahead and be boring because for 2018! It is all about
ditching that white dress so out-while a white suit is so in.
Apparently,
if someone wears a leather jacket over a dress at their wedding it causes shock
waves. I don’t get why people act so silly oh my god did you see that? Are you literally
living under a rock people? I think overacting seems to be a trend so let’s cut
to the chase. You don’t have to be getting married to rock a white suit you can
just show up looking fabulous.
Origin of the Colour
White
represents purity, innocence, wholeness, and completion. The colour at its most
complete and pure is the colour of perfection. The psychological meaning of
white is new beginnings, of wiping the slate clean, so to speak. It is the
blank canvas waiting to be written upon with your words of wisdom. While white
may not be stimulating to the senses, it opens the way for the creation of
anything the mind can conceive.
White
contains an equal balance of all the colours of the spectrum, representing both
the positive and negative aspects of all colours. Its basic feature is
equality, implying fairness and impartially, neutrality and independence. The
colour itself gives off a feeling of brand new and brilliance which can
implicate a positive emotion.
Women’s suits
In the
first half of the 20th century, the skirted suit became the common daytime
city costume for women, in the workplace and out; dressmaker suits featured softer
fabrics and feminine details, and cocktail suits were worn for semi-formal occasion
in mid-century.
Under
the influence for Dress for Success, working women’s uniform of a skirted suit,
tailored skirt, and floppy tie evolved in the 1970s and 1980s. Pantsuits were
introduced by designer Andre’ Courreges in 1964 but were gradually accepted as
formal business attire.
In
the modern century, the suit for women has become a dressy version of the power
suit. And has the ultimate versatile styling all rolled into the right style to
showcase at your next meeting, or dinner party. 30 percent off accessories, to go with that gorgeous white suit.
Power Suit
To
really elevate your work wardrobe, add a white power suit to the mix. It defiantly
doesn’t have to be basic when it comes to a fresh tone. By sticking with a
tailored look, it can come off truly polished and well put together. Adding a
few colourful accessories can contrast perfectly with the white crisp suit. You
will look like the hot boss lady you were always meant to be.
After Work Hours
When
the hours are done and evening hits your face like a beautifully lit lamp post
on a gorgeous city street. All you desire is to get crazy with your girls and
have that much-needed drink and gossip about Cindy from accounting who couldn’t
stop eating those pastries earlier. Did you see her when she talked? I felt
like I got crumbs sprayed all over my face when she spoke. Slip out of those sensible
shoes from the office and into the clicking heels and sparkly clutch for the
best night on the town ever!
Contrasting Print
If
you are that cool girl that strays from tradition and really enjoys mixing
things up a bit, then you will gravitate to this look. Instead of a plain white
suit, try contrasting prints. It gives off a I just woke up like this relaxed
feel while still being crowd pleasing. Less is more, so don’t overdue the accessories.
Let the beautiful print speak for itself.
Stop Traffic
While
it is warming up a bit in some areas of the country. You can still show off
your impeccable style. Try a cigarette ankle trouser paired with a white retro
styled blazer and a midriff crop white blouse for some daytime sex appeal. By
pairing this look with nude heels, you can rock Fashion Week, or just look dam
good shopping. You only live, once right? Why not go out looking stunning and
stop traffic.
Not The Typical Bride
If
you are not the typical bride, then this style of suit is made for you. Instead
of searching for that perfect gown to showcase at your wedding try a cream
suit. It is not completely white but still a show stopping shade to say the
least especially, for this amazing time of year. Go for some detailed finishes like
a Victorian look meets Parisian delight. You can be that celebrity on the red
carpet at your own wedding for sure.
Considering
this for your next weeding? Whether you are the bride to be or just going to
support another bride, this style can be super chic if you work it right.
Replace tradition with a fashion forward white suit.
