How to dress your man

Good afternoon lovelies
 
You can't deny that when a man walks into your office wearing a well thought out outfit that it grabs your attention. You then think to yourself who's the woman behind the man that picked that outfit out!
I'm am not trying to say that all man need help in the wardrobe department, but some men are hopeless and need an extra hand from a female perspective.
So how to dress your man?
Firstly you can’t make it all about you!
He probably won’t like it and will accuse you of being ‘controlling’.
When shopping for work outfits think about what his job position is, what presence he would like to make, what his favourite colours are, what style suits him best and what is your budget.
Once you have taken all of the above into consideration you then need to hit the shops to see what is available.
For example if your man is a public servant, in a APS 3 level position, works in a policy section, likes bright colours and comfortable pants, and your budget is around $400 then the perfect place for you to start is at the YD store in the Canberra Centre.
You'll be keeping an eye out for an outfit that creates a strong presence, looks professional and defines his own personal style. The YD store has many choices with an extensive selection of colours, styles, fits and trends.
Below is a YD outfit that captures the essence of a hard working office man who is looking for a promotion. The blue Kuma slim fit dress shirt adds a pop of colour to the office and when paired with the grey Karl Dress Jacket,  personalises the outfit to his style. Put it with the comfy black Darval Chino's which are stylish and slim fitte and complete the outfit with a Fierce Dress Belt and Hampen Dress Shoes.
 Hope you all have a lovely day. Love TWD xo

Men in Black

Morning Lovelies!
Wow how fast has October gone! It is actually incredible how fast this year has flown by.
So many months of so many incredible outfits.
 
My favourite outfit on a man is black on black on black. It is defiantly the sexiest combination a man can wear.

Yes that's right, that means black blazer, black pants, black shirt, black belt and complete the look with black shoes!

This outfit is sexy, smart, sophisticated and really makes a strong first impression.
 
The outfit below is from the YD store in the Canberra Centre. It defiantly captures the essence of the black on black look!

Hope you find it just as sexy as I do! Love TWD xo

Fiji Tropical Pardise

Bula Bula Bula!!!

Meaning 'Hello Hello Hello' in Fiji

Sorry for being MIA lately I have just been enjoying myself in paradise!

Yesterday we travelled by jetski to Cloud 9, where the famous Cloud Break surfing location is. This place was amazing! A two deck floating island surrounded by beautiful coral reefs.

Todays look is inspired by the tropics. 
Bright colours, beautiful flowers, and easy breezy garments.
What more could you want?

These garments are from the Alice Be Curious boutique.

Bulla!

Morning Lovelies

Well aren't I a lucky girl because my family have spoilt me with a holiday to Fiji for my birthday!

In doing so I will still be blogging but just from a tropical location!

Todays post features garments from the store Alice Be Curious!

I have paired a printed top with white shorts to give a summer/spring fresh look.

I have dressed it up for work with some high heels from Wittner.

Vinaka. Love TWD xo

Moody Blooms

TREND ALERT! TREND ALERT!
 
MOODY BLOOMS
 
For a darker edge try wearing a moody bloom print to work.
Deep oranges, reds and blacks paired with modest skirt lengths and high necklines create the beautifully melancholic mood.
Perfect for an outfit when you want to be 'serious' and powerful!
 
This trend has been massive during the latest catwalks and is soon to be taking over our stores!
 

The look below is from the Alice Be Curious boutique.
The Honey and Beau Exotic Floral Skirt Print has been paired with a Finders Keepers Top. I accessorised the outfit with a bracelet and necklace from Lovisa and Maxi shoes from Wittner.


I hope you all have a lovely weekend. Love TWD xo

Check Mate

Morning Lovelies
 
Continuing on from my Playing Checkers post, today's post gives style advice to keep your man on trend by dressing him in check print.
 
The key to wearing Check is to make sure that the squares stay straight and not distorted. Therefore loose and square fitted silhouettes work best with this print.
 
Check out the Canberra Centre's YD store. They are currently selling the Caine Shirt featuring the check print trend for men's wear. The shirt is a checked roll up shirt with a regular fit, featuring a narrow collar and back darts. I have layered the skirt over the Vinton Tee and paired it with Rex Super Skinny Jean and Minos Casual Shoes.
 
This look is more casual but can still be worn in the working environment. Hope you all are 'checking' this print out. Love TWD xo
