IS IT POSSIBLE TO WEAR OVERALLS NOW?

Why not? The old school style is making a big come back this spring.

From Jason Wu to Philip Lim, grown up overalls are in. Come in materials like linen and leather, it’ll be a refreshing urbane look for this Spring. But how we (as adults) can pull off this look?

Here’s some tips:

–       Slim cuts are the best option. You don’t want to look sloppy wearing a big and oversize overall.

–       Instead of just denim, opt for materials like linen or leather. For more casual days, you can pick darker denim.

–       Play with texture and materials for layering. Instead of plain old T-shirt, look for blouses with more grown-up materials, like lace or chiffon.

–       To complete the whole look, add sharp looking accessories like clutch, shoes and earrings.

–       A smart looking and simply cut blazer will be a perfect companion if you want to rock this look for your office attire. 

THE MOST FASHIONABLE COMIC BOOK

I admit, the last time I read comic book was way back in junior high days. Steven Sterk the super little boy that can’t be super if he’s having a flu, was my all time favorite. Entertaining as it was back then, it feels good that I’m going to be more entertained now as an adult with this new comic book from Phillip Lim. Yup, Phillip Lim THE fashion designer.

Inspired by the brand 3.1 Phillip Lim’s superhero in Fall 2012 collection, Phillip co-wrote the book with John Ostander and it was drawn by Jan Duursema, famous for her work on Star Wars comics. It’ll be launch just in time for Fashion’s Night Out on September 6, 2012. Titled “Kill The Night”, it surely won’t kill mine.
