It’s A Match: Stunning Ways To Power-Pairing

Your wardrobe is beaming with possibilities that you might fail to notice amidst dilemma filled wardrobe woes. It’s time to bring your left brain into play and get creative whenever you’re at your sixes and sevens. Case in point- Nothing beats the power-packed glamour of a well-paired look. Whether you’re a natural at acing conceptually complemented co-ordinates or have a penchant for mixing & matching or have been trusting the good ol’ dresses and overalls for a while now, it’s time for some polishing with power-pairing. The ultimate commandment of styling a well-paired look is to not shy away from experimenting. 

Matching sets are no longer a byword for boring. In fact, matching print on print was a sleeper hit in the ’60s. The stand-out style is being tapped by many designers now as a game-changer. Introduce a couple of matching sets like wide-legged pants and crop tops to transition through your work week effortlessly. Trading your pantsuits are still a big no-no for they’re your power-dressers for boardroom conferences. Appealing pan-seasons, the chic flair of matching prints and textures can win you several second glances for its high-vividness. A vibrant co-ordinated number can not only enliven a mundane day at work but also give the perfect dramatic edge to take it to post 8 pm scenes.

We often underestimate our innate style sensibilities but with just a tinge of confident one can simply give it a notch up. Clubbing separates by the way of colour-blocking guarantees a visually stunning look no matter what the trend favours. A form-fitted top with a fluid draped bottom is the ultimate formula of a fiery match. Break the saree-blouse set with a corset top for a desi meets sassy appeal to welcome festivities at work. Bustiers with skirts, blazers with shorts, jackets with kurtis are combinations that will set you a class apart. Have post-work dinner date plans? Head out pairing your maxi dress with a jacket thrown over. Offsetting a statement piece with no-brainer basics is the easiest way to strike gold with the perfect balance. 

Take cues with these matches paired for you!
