Dear Confashion: Spice Up My Lanvin


Q: I have a fashion issue I want you to take care of, I have this Lanvin oversized tee and I really really like it but the problem is that I want to wear it! and you know what wearing means! To spice it up and to make a whole outfit out of it , when I tried wearing it with skinny, leggings and bubble skirt it looked boring. So what do you suggest ?

Regards,

Eve

A: First of all, allow me to congratulate you on your very stylish selection, I love this Lanvin shirt. It's light weight material is soooo perfect and comfortable for our weather.

To spice up your Lanvin shirt, Try wearing it with baggy work-like pants (not denim), stacked bangles, and chunky peep-toe shoe-boots (perfect for summer nights). To give it more of a boy-meets-girl look, try adding suspenders to it, but leave them hanging (if you don't have wide hips otherwise they'll add some bulk). If you're looking for a laid back and casual look, try pairing it with cropped skinny pants (again not jeans), a pair of chunky heeled patent sandals, and a structured bag. For a quirky look, try pairing it with full skirt (not bubble) and ankle boots (the shirt tucked inside).

From shopowner:

One more way to wear it is to wear it with skinnies or leggings and belt it with a mismatched belt like a bright yellow or blue with matching ballerinas...

Hey! i love all the outfits you suggested, i need to go stock up on those bangles. BTW, did you check out netaporter recently? They've changed the layout (finally!) and its so much easier to view items now, yay! :)

Shopowner: I tried it with legging but i didnt like it, and I cant have a belt on this tee because it has lots of faces on it !
I'll try it with colored skinnies maybe it will works !

the only ways this top will look good and not dated is with either some baggies in a fine black material (or white)
or with a full skirt as suggested. i really do not advise skinnies with this unless you usually pull of a carrie look.

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.
