There she stands in front of her wardrobe wondering to herself “Hmmmm, recession, Buhari, Dollar hike, etc., how does all these help my wardrobe this new year? What do I do?”

These are the same thoughts probably running through a lot of ladies minds this New Year what with all the economic downturn noise and uproar going on. There is one secret to all of this however….

Yes! Whether you agree to the above or not, it is actually the truth. It is not always about getting a new dress but more of how you wear what you have whether old or new, combined with how you carry yourself wearing it. Hence the title of this blog post.

By Timeless pieces or Fashion Must Haves, I am referring to fashion pieces or clothes that are never out of fashion, not bound by times or seasons. You can use them no matter the “fashion season”.

So in this series, for the next 4 weeks of this month, we will be looking at four of such timeless pieces or must haves that every woman must have in their wardrobe (and am sure that you also have in yours), that can serve you in more ways than one and one that never runs out of fashion but can always be repurposed in several elegant ways hence making it a timeless piece.

For this  Timeless Piece series, we will look at five different ways you can wear your timeless piece or fashion must have each to go for a different day of the week.

For this weeks’ series, we will be looking at Jeans!

You saw that one coming right?

Yep, like Dianna Vreeland said:

Now there are various types of jeans- skinny, boyfriend, etc. but our concern today is not with that. We are just focusing on different ways you can wear your jeans. Every woman should have a nice and comfortable pair of jeans in her wardrobe.

Alright, so first off, we have the Monday Formal Look.

Breeze into your office Monday morning with an air of confidence and work smartness ready to jumpstart the week adorned in this fun but formal jeans timeless ensemble. Pair your jeans with a nice inner blouse and a formal jacket to give you that air of professionalism and don’t forget to tote your formal toned down bag.

 

Second we have the Semi Formal Tuesday.

Because it is still early on in the week and we still have some business meetings scheduled, we pair up our jeans with a formal shirt tucked in with a nice floral scarf round the neck to give us that look and feel of formality.

 

For Wednesday which is the middle of the week, you’ve passed the first two “serious” days and you are getting somewhat close to the two “unserious” days of the week so it’s a blend of “serious” and “unserious” or ’formal’ and ‘informal’. You wear a simple breezy blouse but the heels still give you that serious look.

On Thursday we are almost at the end of the week and can begin to relax a bit. Still maintaining an air of professionalism, we go for a shirt. However, we dress it down by leaving it untucked and going with a pair of flats.

Of course Thank God it’s Friday and seeing that this post is coming from the stables of E’s Creations, we pair our  jeans up with a nice Ankara top adding colour with the hawt red heels, no dulling!
