5 Ways to Craft a Signature Style Statement

After skimming through pictures of some of the most stylish women, think Zendaya, Blake Lively, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Sonam Kapoor, we have come up with a few conclusions. Rather than an entire wardrobe refresh, we believe that a handful of simple changes to your existing closet or some styling tactics can instantly update your look. 

If you keep a few simple things in mind, these tips will make you look fabulous and put together even at 7 a.m. Keep reading for tips and ways that will make you look instantly stylish. 

  1. Accessories : Accessories add spice and zing to an outfit! It’s the easiest way to make a basic outfit look striking. While the morning rush might not allow you time to curate a thought-out accessory stack, we suggest wearing at least one piece of jewellery or carrying a statement bag. Whether you’re a minimalist and comfortable in a stack of rings and simple earrings or like to go all out with a matching jewellery set, you cannot go wrong with this trick.

2. Attention-Grabbing Add-Ons: Style your outfit with an unexpected yet striking element, taking your look a notch up! This can be a quirky print or some blingy goodness. If you love dressing basic, add a hairband, a scarf, or even studded shoes. 

3. Layers : Looking polished has never been easier! Jackets and capes can elevate a look and make it look like a million dollars. It doesn’t matter if it’s jeans, a T-shirt, a gown, a wedding lehenga, or even gym clothes. Adding more layers to your outfit adds a dash of regality to the look and ensures you’re ready to step out any time of the day. Those outermost layers are total statement-makers!

4. Statement-Making Footwear:An eye-catching pair of footwear helps the most on days you do not want to put in any effort to think about what you’re going to wear.  When it comes to shoes, colour packs a huge style punch! You don’t have to opt for high heels to look stylish. Just make sure that footwear, whether flats or heels, has a pop of colour. 

5. Go Monotone: When in doubt, wear one colour. That is our rule! Everyone has a colour they love, and they know they look amazing in it. Dig into your wardrobe to find items to put together a monotone outfit. This trick never fails to look grown-up and elegant. Of course, you could take the ultimate fashion route and wear all black.

We often think of art as a way of capturing a moment. But for artists who spend decades making it, the process is also about accumulation – of images, memories, places and questions that refuse to disappear. A subject encountered early in life can return years later carrying an entirely different meaning. Perhaps that is Read More
