Pick any colour as long as it’s blue, a dash of white & always denim!

The best way to look effortlessly chic?
One colour dressing !
The way to do it?
Keep everything in a single colour : different tones.
Because you are having fun with new shapes and interesting textures. ( not kooky colours or pesky prints!)

The thing is : you don’t want to have a wardrobe full of multiple colours . That just makes life difficult.
Who wants to spend hours in the morning getting dressed trying to work out what colour goes with what?
No, thank you !
The trick is to stick to colours that love each other.
Colours that can’t wait to get together.
Colours that naturally adore hanging out together without complication.
Makes life easy. Makes life chic. Makes life effortless.
I’m talking expensive colours like navy, cream, camel, white, black, brown and khaki.

Today let’s concentrate on all the shades of blue.
Blue looks great worn head to toe, layered up in all different shades.
It’s a fabulous alternative to black, softer and looks just as chic but a little more flattering next to your face.
Plus it’s a sneaky way to add ” colour” to all your camel and beige.
Especially if you can’t do red or orange. I get it.

Best thing? Navy always wants to be seen with denim.
This is good. You need denim to add edge ( tension!)  to anything navy , dress it down so it’s not too straight.
You don’t to look like you’re wearing a school uniform. or work for an airline. Unless you do. haha.

Blue is also best friends with camel and brown. White is a match made in heaven.
But watch out with navy and white : you don’t want to look too jaunty. Add tan heels or bag to break it up.

Remember blue is a colour that is 24 hour colour: work to weekend, day to evening, desk to dinner.
That means getting mileage from your wardrobe.
What’s not to love about that?

Styling tricks:

• Generally speaking go for navy in the clothin then add brighter blues in accessories like sneakers, belts and bags.
• A bright blue shirt looks great open over a white tank with camel pants.
• Remember if you want to look modern and effortless ( Hint: you do!) then you need to update into new shapes. That means barrel leg jeans, a short blue shirt, and a fabulous slouchy navy blazer, a blue dress that is LONG and stripe and a drawstring light blue shirt or a top that has major sleeves.
• If you are doing head to toe blue make sure you bring in different tones from light to dark. A navy blazer with lighter wash jeans, a stripe with denim pants, a navy jacket over white.
• Go for exaggerated strong shapes, that’s what makes it cool…like an oversized blazer, baggy jeans, high waist balloon pants or a shirt with big sleeves.
• You want to use accessories to bring an edge or bring in brighter blue : that means a navy bag, a stripe bag,  sneakers with a touch of blue ,  a major designer belt or try a cool bucket hat.
• The FiFi Fashion secret in life? If in doubt always add white. ( like shoes, jeans and T shirts) and you can’t go wrong. Get shopping ! Have a great weekend ! x
