Stripes Are Easy Wins
If you’re intimidated by patterns then it’s best to start with something reliable and simple. They don’t come simpler than the stripe.
A go-to for clothing and easy to style for a variety of looks,
horizontal stripes are actually slimming and work great on polos,
short-sleeve and long-sleeve tops. Don’t discount the verticals either: a
pin-stripe shirt is stylishly formal whatever the weather while a
seersucker jacket is perfect for a (slightly) more casual summer
wedding.
Every once in a while, an opportunity arises where your wardrobe can work for your wallet as opposed to the other way around. When high-street brands collaborate with more exclusive fashion houses, you can catch upmarket designers at bank manager-friendly prices. And even if it’s a mash-up between two brands beyond your usual budget, that fact that each collection is limited edition means there is every chance that your purchase will appreciate with time. With cost assessment done, these are the best new collaborations out there, each one ready to double-team the crap out of your AW wardrobe (and save you some cash in the process).
