Get Ready for the Weekend Style
Author: Asuncion Parra
Are you at a loss for what to wear when the weekend arrives? Do you have trouble getting ready for a formal event or are you looking for informal styles? In this section we’ll tell you about 4 ensembles for weekend style.
We’ll begin with two formal styles.
1 Black pants
2 Black blouse with brown reflections
3 Party purse
4 Black shoes
In this photo we see black straight-leg pants and a sleeveless blouse with little flounces in the chest area. The bag is small, for parties, with satin decorations. The shoes are closed and with high black heels.
• When can I use it?
This ensemble is ideal for going out at night. It’s very elegant. We can use it for going to dinner, a show, theater, performances, etc.
• How do I know if it will look good on me?
The blouse gives volume to the chest due to the flounces. It stylizes the abdomen since it is narrower (without clinging) and uses dark tones. It’s ideal to augment the bust and stylize the abdomen.
All similar pants to those in the photo stylize our legs; they are a good option for looking taller.
The high-heeled shoes complement the pants. The purse is appropriate for going out at night, and it’s flattering since it is small and doesn’t add volume anywhere.
• How can I adapt it?
We can change the color of the pants to brown as in the blouse, but we need to remember that black has more combining potential. The blouse can be any color since there are myriad colors that will look good.
With this type of blouse we don’t recommend adding a belt since the flounces already give it enough shape.
We can add some earrings, a ring or bracelet to give a more sophistocated touch.
The shoes can be black, brown, gold...
1 Black tube skirt
2 Black shirt
3 Green scarf
4 Black shoes
This ensemble is composed of a knee-length tube or pencil skirt. The blouse is semi-fitted in black. In this photo we see a green pistachio scarf and black shoes.
• When can I use it?
This is a formal style for night-time; classic yet current. The touch of the scarf is attention-getting and breaks the monotony of the black color, countering seriousness. It is appropriate for formal events or leisure events that are somewhat serious.
• How do I know if it will look good on me?
The pencil skirt augments the feminine figure, giving the effect of a narrow waist and shapely hips. If you have wide hips you can use a darker black color.
The black top is flattering as it is a dark color which does not add volume; in fact it has the opposite effect.
The black shoes stylize the figure since they have high heels and for a purse, a small or medium-small size in black will be perfect. A monocolor ensemble in black stylizes the figure in general, and visually it makes us look thinner.
• How can I adapt it?
The ensemble without the scarf is a very classic and elegant style. You’ll know for sure you’ll look terrific. We can combine the skirt with any color top or blouse. If we wear a monocolor ensemble we can play with the style of the scarf to give a more dynamic touch. The shoes can be the color of the ensemble or of the scarf or even the bag.
If we don’t find the scarf flattering we can use a necklace, remembering that the ensemble will become more informal.
Now that we’ve seen the formal styles, let’s look at a couple of more informal styles.
1 Jeans
2 Mustard shirt
3 Black belt
4 Black beret
5 Black bag
6 Black shoes
The jeans are dark in color, with a low waist and straight leg.
The shirt is cotton with three-quarter length sleeves and a mustard color (very in fashion this season). The belt is slightly wide and black like the shoes, which are close-toed and high-heeled. The purse is “Maxi”, ideal for going shopping.
• When can I use it?
This ensemble is very fashionable and comfortable. It’s great for going shopping, picking up the kids from school, going out for a drink, to the movies...
• How do I know if it will look good on me?
The shirt with three-quarter length sleeves lightly shortens the arms. Since it is made of cotton it’s flattering because it shapes without clinging. It’s an informal ensemble but with a sexy, fashionable style.
The jeans are flattering because they stylize the lower part of the body.
In this case if you use high-heeled shoes you give yourself more height.
• How can I adapt it?
We can use flat boots or flat shoes. A jean jacket would be ideal for making this ensemble complete.
We can change the color of the shirt to any other, since the jeans will go with anything. Another option would be to combine a black shirt and a best and a beret of another color, to give a fun and daring touch.
1 Brown pants
2 Dark orange cotton shirt
3 Brown shoes and bag
4 Gold and brown necklace
The cotton shirt in dark orange is another of the most fashionable colors this season. It’s long sleeved and round-necked.
The pants are brown and are made of a mix of cotton and lycra that doesn’t bind. They have a straight line.
The shoes are open-toed and have medium-high heels and the bag is medium-large with small gold-colored buckles.
The necklace is gold and brown and medium-length.
• When can I use it?
Just like the first ensemble it’s appropriate for leisure events, going to eat with friends, shopping, movies, etc.
• How do I know if it will flatter me?
The straight-leg pants stylize the legs as do the heeled shoes. The cotton shirt is very comfortable and practical for many activities. It’s a flattering piece since it doesn’t bind but shows a feminine figure. The necklace is flattering since it has a round and oval shape which break the homogeneity of the clothes.
• How can I adapt it?
There are many colors that flatter the brown color, and if the orange is too daring for you, try beige, gold, or another brown tone. And if you like, you can match the ensemble with yellows or even reds.
With this option we can add a black belt or another color combination with the shoes and bag.
We can replace the pants and use jeans. If you wear a long necklace, son’t use a belt since it will overload the image.
You can also wear flat boots or shoes to be more comfortable.
