SUITS YOU

When you want to make an impact but also want to spend your money wisely....Suit it up! I do love a co-ord and this season its all about the simple 2 piece; blazer and bottoms. But my pick of the high street is anything but simple, think patterns, stripes and colour and stand yourself out from the crowd.

Small Pointy Cat Eye Sunglasses ASOS £14.00

I picked my co-ord suit up in New Look and for a very reasonable price I must add. I had a 20% off discount code for my birthday (top tip - sign up and you too will receive the same). The fabric of both pieces is a soft light weight fabric with stretch in it which means I can wear it with ease all day. I love the fact there's lots of colours to pick out with accessories and tops. I've styled it up here with me new favourite trainers, a slogan tee and some sassy sunglasses. Hopefully proving that practical dressing doesn't have to be boring. To take both pieces out after dark a simple cami top and some killer heels is all you'll need.

Blue Stripe Slim Leg Trousers New Look £19.99

The good thing about a co-ord is that you can also wear each piece seperately and create so many different looks. I'll be wearing the blazer with dresses and jeans, and the trousers with all my knits for now and t-shirts come summer.

But what else is out there.......

Jacquard Blazer Zara £69.99

Jacquard Trousers Zara £29.99

Jungle Print Blazer Zara £49.99

Jungle Print Trousers Zara £29.99

I love the prints on both of these suits and can confirm they are just as dreamy in real life. I think the green (on the right) would be perfect for a wedding guest and would love to see it styled with a bright pink top.

Checked Double Breasted Coat Zara £89.99

Checked Linen Trousers Zara £39.99

Grey check is the ultimate classic and can be mixed up with colours, prints and patterns to add some personality to your look.

Blazer with Contrasting Topstitching Zara £69.99

Trousers with Contrasting Topstitching Zara £39.99

Contrasting top-stitch is big news right now so this suit is my pick for sure. I love the flare on the trousers which could be dressed up with heels or dressed down with trainers. The blazer would be an instant update to any wardrobe and add some sass to all your basics.

If colour is your thing, then just like me you have a big decision to make! At the moment I'm swaying towards pink but equally love the green. Don't be afraid to mix things up though, right now the runways are bursting with colour clashing and rainbow brights. The most important thing to remember when styling a look is to always add some personality. If you like it, wear it and stand tall. It will always work if you believe in it.
