Smart casual . It’s what everyone is always asking

Smart casual . It’s what everyone is always asking for …
because it’s hard to get right: You want to be chic, slightly dressed up but look effortless. Feel relaxed.
 You don’t want to look overdressed or look too try hard ! It might be drinks, it might be a BBQ, a dinner, a concert or a low key event. it’s not black tie, it’s not weekend casual and it’s not workwear either. Oh la la it’s pretty broad.
Choose your own ( smart casual) adventure.

So here’s the secret for all those occasions:
Table top dressing. Which is how you dress from the waist up. It’s a FiFi philosophy: the attention and focus on top of the body (everything else is hidden under the table!)
 Which means only one thing: Fabulous tops & pretty blouses. As chic & easy as dresses, ten million times more versatile.

Styling ideas: Grab a sequin/lace/blouse top : toss it OVER a white tank, pull on baggy blue jeans, flat sandals/birks = low key casual.

Sequin/lace top: pull on tan cotton chinos or black barrel jeans, strappy kitten heels and a chic clutch= smart casual.

Sequin/lace top : pull on tailored pants or a midi skirt , sparkly heels, metallic clutch, dangly earrings = event dressing

The sneaky trick to all this styling? Shoes ! Change your shoes, change the look.

Hint : A rule of thumb is to style silver with black and then mix browns back with gold. Easy.

How good is this houndstooth blazer @dissh ? Answ

How good is this houndstooth blazer @dissh ?
Answer : very !

What’s to love ?
* In a light unstructured fabric, great for spring.
* The houndstooth adds a fashion edge : way more interesting that ye olde worlde plain blazer.
* longer cut with big padded shoulders.
* Relaxed oversized shape. Think of it as a cardigan. But 1000 times chicer ( cardigans are frumpy IMO !), meaning it’s versatile. You can wear it out and about on weekends and won’t feel too “dressed”.
* The neutrals and brown houndstooth will slide effortlessly into your wardrobe & go with everything you own…Yes, even red jeans !

Styling tips :
Match red sandals to your jeans , continue the line right down to your toes.
Add a brown woven bag to add contrast
Try the blazer with a white tee & Bermuda shorts with heels. Swipe 👉 I’ll also wear with white jeans or chinos.

I’m wearing ;
The blazer @dissh size 12
White & other stories T shirt @theiconicau medium
The red barrel pants @zara size 40
Bermuda shorts @lululemonausnz size L
Red sandals @zara
Woven bag @netaporter
* some gifted 🙏

Outfit of the day ! Is it a shirt ? Is it a bomb

Outfit of the day !

Is it a shirt ? Is it a bomber or a blouson ?
I think it’s all three .
This is good.
Means it’s versatile.
You can wear it with nothing under it.
You can layer it over a tank.
You can wear it open like a jacket or done up like a blouse.
The elastic hem means you can pull it down
or let it sit on your waist.

Most importantly it stands on its own as a statement piece : it doesn’t need a jacket to look great. It has the chicness of a soft blouse but the structure of a jacket .

I’m wearing here with my fav dark denim jeans and then
👉layered over a neat white tank with cool black balloon pants @lululemonausnz

Other ways wear this shirt ? I’ll toss it with camel or white Bermuda shorts, white jeans & baggy camel chinos. Slouchy blue jeans of course.

Adds heels , grab a clutch and it’s smart casual
Done !

Note : wearing a large in the blouson !

Need more smart casual tops ?
Yes, please ! Head to fifi.com.au for my picks luxe to less.

Snapped this last week on the way to an event @str

Snapped this last week on the way to an event @strandbags to see all their fabulous new season bags & cool luggage - more to come !

Styling tips :
* This is the way to you can wear brown for spring !

* Update to new modern shapes : a blazer that is tailored with bigger shoulders & nipped in waist with Bermuda shorts in pleather.

* Mix up the textures , pleather & twill with a dash of suede.

* Stick to one colour dressing , so mixing all different tones of browns and tan.

* the shorts lighten it up by showing bare legs ( so brown trousers are not wrong here but might look a little wintery)

* And the white tee freshens it up too.

* The blazer also works with straight blue jeans & white jeans Swipez-vous 👉👉👉

Wearing ;
Brown blazer from & other stories @theiconicau
Brown shorts @zara
White tee & other stories @theiconicau
Heels @netaporter & @zara
YSL belt @netaporter
Suede bag @strandbags
White jeans @assemblylabel
Blue jeans @uniqloau

Bermuda shorts : THE item of the season ! So hap

Bermuda shorts : THE item of the season !

So happy I found these from @lululemonausnz

* the best neutral colour (cypress forest ) ✔️
* Drawstring waist ✔️
* Good length ( on me anyway !) ✔️
* Lightweight woven soft fabric ✔️
* Relaxed cut & so flattering ✔️
* Machine washable ✔️
* A wardrobe chameleon - wear with heels, tee & blazer for every day city dressing or casually with flat sandals on the weekend.

I’ve styled the shorts with the coolest sweatshirt ( oversized crew) @lululemonanz . Love ! It’s an exaggerated shape with big sleeves & a voluminous bubble hem in the softest fabric. It’s a statement top : you don’t need a jacket to joosh it .

Also nabbed @lululemonanz the lightweight pleated track jacket in a chic khaki ( sassy sage) Swipez vous 👉 it’s really a kind of a blouson / bomber . Love with barrel pants or white jeans but more on those pieces tomorrow!

Wearing a size large in shorts, a medium in the crew sweatshirt and a large in the track jacket.

Love this chic sharp blazer @theiconicau - on sale 😜

It’s a great cut : tailored silhouette with strong shoulders but still relaxed . It’s double breasted & you’ll wear it undone.

The colour : It’s a rich choc brown, as versatile as black yet softer & will work with neutrals & white. Summer to winter .

The fabric : it’s a light wool twill with a teeny bit of stretch . Perfect for spring over a white tee, wearing a size 12

How I’m wearing it !
When in doubt : default to all white under everything right ?!
Like these cool white Arket cotton balloon pants @theiconicau , sooo good with elastic waist and an exaggerated cut ! I’ll probably wear mostly on summer weekends or on holidays as very relaxed, almost beachy. With a white or grey tee shirt ( I’ll post in stories ).
Wearing a size medium .

The blazer also looks great with jeans of course, the best straight jeans from JW Anderson @uniqloau and my fav white jeans @assemblylabel . Love how it’s all pulled together with the Dragon Diffusion bag @netaporter and brown mules.

Let’s concentrate on all the shades of blue 💙 A fabulous alternative to black, just as chic but softer.  it’s a sneaky way to add ” colour” to all your brown & camel Especially if you can’t do red or orange. I get it !

Styling tricks:

* if you want to look modern and effortless ( Hint: you do!) update blue into new shapes. barrel leg jeans, a short blue shirt, slouchy navy blazer, a blue dress that is LONG and stripe, a top that has major sleeves.

* Wear neutrals /camel then add brighter blues like a knit around your waist , a blue tee or try a blue shirt with white jeans , brown pants , a camel jacket

* A bright blue shirt looks great worn undone & open over a white tank with camel pants.

* layer up different tones of blue from light to dark. A navy blazer with lighter wash jeans, a stripe shirt 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.

* 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.

* Navy needs an edge so it doesn’t look like a uniform or too jaunty so mix back with brown, baggy denim, oversized blazer or cool shoes.

* The FiFi Fashion secret in life? If in doubt always add white. ( like shoes, jeans and T shirts) and you can’t go wrong.

This knit @dissh is a winner !
So many ways to wear it .
Seems whatever pants I wear it with - from white jeans to slouchy pants to cargoes and shorts - it just works !

Comment SHOP below to receive a DM with the link to this post on my LTK ⬇ https://liketk.it/6obJ6

So many ways to wear it : which is what we want from our new season wardrobe right ? Pieces that slot effortlessly straight into our current wardrobe . Easy dressing.

Great for spring and perfect for cool summer evenings the knit is a clever mix of 70% cotton 30% wool : it’s a slouchy cut , love the drop shoulder & the rolled hem, and the length hits just right so you can wear it hanging out or do a little front tuck.

1. Wearing cargoes @zara and Aeyde heels @netaporter
2. White jeans @assemblylabel
3. Khaki pants @dissh
4. Shorts @uniqloau
5. Pants @lululemonausnz

How gorgeous is this Dragon Diffusion bag @netapor

How gorgeous is this Dragon Diffusion bag @netaporter ?! I absolutely love it .

Comment SHOP below to receive a DM with the link to this post on my LTK ⬇ https://liketk.it/6nFBY

Totally chic but it’s also relaxed & casual .
Roomy - toss everything in - but never heavy.
It’s luxurious woven leather but it’s actually practical & so light.
Minimalist design , it’s the texture of the leather that
adds a fashion edge .

It’s the bag of summer !
Totally versatile ( always take that into consideration when investing in a designer piece) the rich chocolate brown will work with so many pieces in my wardrobe.

Love it with everything from a brown pencil skirt to dark denim jeans, a camel blazer or white denim & a slouchy trench.

It subtly elevates an outfit without grabbing attention trying to be an obvious star of the show …if that is called quiet luxury then I’m here for it 😜

The best thing ? It will get better with age!

I’ll add links to stories & you can shop it all #shopwithfifi @ltk.australia #ltkaustralia #ad #paidpartner

A FiFi philosophy: Update the classics. Quite oft

A FiFi philosophy: Update the classics.

Quite often the classics that are the first things to date.
They never last forever. Sorry to break the news !
Your trench. Blazer. Jeans. White tee. Little black dress and white shirt - all these wardrobe staples need updating.

The cut, the arm hole, the length, the lapel, neckline, and the shoulder they ALL change over the years.
Suddenly they can look dated.
(Yes, even a Chanel jacket & a Burberry trench will date!).

That’s why when you put them on you FEEL daggy.
You look in the mirror. You know something is wrong but can’t put your finger on it . These are classics right ? They last : So what can it be?

You try to joosh up your wardrobe with frumpy florals, pesky prints, kooky colours, silly scarves & beads & belts & silly shit like that - WRONG!
Dated, old fashioned, never versatile. Or chic.

And you fluff around , wasting time & money every morning trying to work out what to wear.

The solution?

Build a wardrobe of pieces you love: Update the classics !

Which means investing in wardrobe staples but UPDATED into new, modern shapes in classic versatile colours.
Remember the fashion edge can actually come from dramatic shapes NOT crazy colors or frumpy florals 😎.

And when you Invest early in the trends ( new shapes!) you get years of wear.

That’s the secret to effortless dressing.
You’ll buy fewer better things.
And get dressed in 5 minutes flat: with your eyes closed !
Because when you update to modern shapes ; there’s no jooshing or fluffing around with accessories, the modern styles do all the talking: put them on , put the door. Done !

It’s FIFi approved : a philosophy that works.
I should know , I practice what I preach 😎
