Wildly Cool Style Tips from Vintage Vogue

Many of these suggestions are great!

Scrunch up your sleeves to make your outfit feel more lived in. 

Layer an open, colorful jacket underneath a neutral coat.

Gold accessories will always dress up your outfit. 

Wear your bracelets over your sleeves. 

The easiest prints to match are florals and checks. 

Pull your collar up over a furry stole. 

When you have nothing to wear, put on a striped shirt and white pants. 

Layer a dress over trousers.

Layer a cardigan over a shirt, and top it with a blazer. 

Flip one side of your jacket back over your hips to reveal your trousers. 

A statement necklace can dress up any LBD. 

An undone buttondown. 

A duster coat looks cool over just about anything. 

Belt your coat to show off your figure. 

Dressing head to tow black is so slimming. 

Wear an undone tie as a scarf.

Make sure your patent boots have a low heel, to keep your outfit from looking too provocative. 

Mix small and large versions of the same print. 

Try a double collared look. 

Tie a scarf around your neck like a turtleneck. 

Ruffle-adorned bikinis create the illusion of curves. 

Layer statement necklaces of a jacket. 

Dress down a ball gown skirt with a knit sweater.

emanuelle alt

I have found myself filling my tumblr page with loads of street style pictures of women in straight slacks or jeans, classic button downs, and oversized blazers. I love the simplicity and timelessness of the look. As much as I enjoy buying statement pieces (cue ball gowns, tunics, party dresses, and sparkly shoes), I am really obsessing over this uniform. I mean you CAN'T go wrong! 
But having a healthy dose of French chic with festive Palm Beach flair can still work, right? 

I slowly began realizing that the woman in most of my tumblr "re-blogs" was Emanuelle Alt, the Editor-in-Chief of Vogue Paris. She is most celebrated for her make-up free and youthful appearance and nixing skirts and dresses for denim and her signature blazers or jackets. She is a fan of black heels, as you might gather from the images below. BUT - I see a fair amount of kitten heels in the outfits. Totally a-ok with that!

It's always fun to find new style icons. Although it might be a bit of a stretch for one person to channel both Emanuelle and Iris Apfel in a wardrobe, who said life shouldn't be a bit of a creative challenge? 

Enjoy your weekend!!
