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...

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.

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
