Master the Art of Layering and Be Fashionably Prepared
As the weather changes, our wardrobe has to keep up. Just because it’s raining outside does not mean we should give up on our style. This is the perfect time to test our layering skills.
For people who take fashion seriously, choosing outfits everyday can be fun and challenging especially when constantly faced with unpredictable weather. Imagine leaving the house in a lacy white dress when suddenly, halfway your travel to work, the rain pours. Of course you didn’t expect it. The sun was brightly shining when you left home. Whether you admit it or not, this is just one of the many instances wherein you feel like running back to your closet. Grab a trench or, perhaps, a no-fail varsity jacket.
Sudden rainfall may leave us unprepared but we have to strike back. Rain or shine, we need to look for ways to layer our clothes. We can always peel off the garments anyway, enough to keep us cool and cozy indoors. Combining our favorite pieces, regardless of the season, is one way to go! It’s not as complicated as you may think (just like in love). Scroll down to see how fashion icons nailed the look.
