After almost two years of lockdown limitations, curfews, zoom calls, banana bread bake-offs and far too much home schooling, it’s time for a little real-in-life-and-colour fun again.
Treat yourself to that gorgeous pair of heels, splurge on one of the slinky new jumpsuits and, most importantly, celebrate your wonderful girlfriends.
They’re the ones that have had your back through it all and we think you owe it to them and yourself to reconnect in real person. It’s essential for your mental health, and for all things fashion.
So take a break from tracksuits and yoga pants, get dressed up, invite your besties and make it an occasion.
Lets colour block!
Colour blocking is a fashion trend that’s here to stay, and what better way to break up your social fast than splashing some colour over your look!
Here are a few fashion tips from expert stylist Robynne Kahn to bring you up to help you level up your colour blocking game.
Robynne’s tips:
1. Coordinate your outfit by colour matching your accessories. A green belt and a green clutch or gold hoops and pair of gold heels for example, will create a very pulled-together statement.
2. Tone on tone dressing is so on trend (and is a stress-free way to put a hot look together). Head-to-toe brights are the way to go (think fuchsia pink!)
3. Go bold, or go home! Clash your brights. Pink and orange are actually friends! Lemon yellow and pops of turquoise will have you turning heads.
4. If you’re more of an LBD (Little Black Dress) babe, add a pop of colour with a bold eye or lip, or level up your fave black jumpsuit (or black jeans and black shirt) with gold accessories and gold strappy heels. Gold accessories will instantly take your look from day to play.
5. Add that drip! Don’t forget your nails! Ombré, dipped, embellished, square or almond shaped… It’s the fiercest way to stay on trend.
Top it off with your ultimate accessory
And now that you’ve got your glam colour sorted – just add your bottle of Cape Velvet Cream. Your new best friend and ultimate fashion accessory for 2022.
Its curvy, black bottle is the epitome of chic – a stylish addition to any drinks tray or table.
It’s made with real cream – giving you a rich and smooth taste, and silky, velvety texture that suits any occasion. And It’s now available in two new flavours which are also bang on trend – Strawberry and Chocolate-Caramel.
Smooth and decadent, Cape Velvet Chocolate Caramel combines the irresistible flavours of caramel and cocoa but is not too sweet. Cape Velvet Strawberry has delicious strawberry aromas that give way to sweet, fruity flavours and a velvety smooth finish. All three varieties are available in 750ml bottles from leading liquor outlets countrywide.
Pop some into a wine glass, with or without ice, and have a cheers to yourself and your girlfriends on us. Welcome to the year of fabulous fashion, style and fun!
