A New Season Of Fashion At Your Finger Tips With Help From Celebrity Stylist Jen Rade
Seasons come and go, but that doesn't mean your style has to. Whether you're aiming for casual-chic, Saturday-night glam or somewhere in between, celebrity stylist Jen Rade has a few tricks up her sleeve to help you translate today's trends into everyday life and make every season fashionable and comfortable.
Rade has combed the runways, fashion magazines and trend reports to track down the top five things that you, and your wardrobe, need to know:
• Find Your Waist. Silhouettes have slimmed down and your waist is back. Pants, in particular, return as a wardrobe staple-with great slouchy men's versions at the forefront. Keep your style and body looking feminine by matching these with form-fitting tops for an overall attractive look that can take you straight from your office to dinner.
• Get Cozy-Chic. Knits are back with a vengeance, from long sweaters over dresses to high-neck knits with pencil skirts. Keep this style balanced by pairing pieces in shades of the same color for a look that makes cozy appear sleek.
• Hats Off To Fashion. Hats are a must-have. While many designer hats are over the top, you don't have to go crazy to incorporate this trend into everyday life. A tweed newsboy cap or wool beret with a detailed brooch will infuse some fun into a daily accessory.
• Make a Statement. With feathers, paillettes and sequins everywhere, purchase one novelty piece with a distinct edge that lets you stand out year-round.
• Keep your shape. Don't lose your curves under all those layers of knits, sweaters and scarves. Make sure to complement these cold weather staples with a bra that provides shape and support such as the Hanes All-Over Comfort Bra. The bra's plush-channeled underwire design gently provides a cushioned fit that accentuates your curves. "Whether you're a celebrity or not, the best way to approach each season is to start with the right foundation," Rade suggests. "My best piece of advice is to start every day with a great bra, such as the Hanes All-Over Comfort Bra with ComfortSoft Straps and then build your signature look on top. Once you have a comfortable foundation, the rest of your look, day or evening, will fall easily into place.
"The key to making each season your best is to accent your favorite styles with sheer confidence, which results from feeling comfortable on the inside out," Rade says. "Let confidence be your greatest accessory, and you'll look as good as you feel."
