One Last Styling Tip:
And one last tip from Lana. Her advise is to keep the focus on the stripped item by only wearing one item in stripes, and keeping the rest of your outfit plain and simple.😊 So for example, wear a stripped top, and keep your skirt or trousers plain. Or wear a stripped dress, and wear a blazer or jacket in a plain fabric.
Still need some help with your outfit? You can visit Lana in person at her beautiful boutique at FEA Fashionloft in Starnberg, right next to the the beautiful Starnberger See just outside Munich. She’s more than happy to give you her expert opinion and advice on what will suit you perfectly.
By the way, don’t you just love the beautiful drawings Lana made especially for us? So she’s not only a fashion expert, but an extremely talented artist too. All of the gorgeous pieces in the drawings are available to buy at her store.
Thanks so much to Lana for her fantastic tips. I hope you found them helpful. I know that I did and I love how easy and uncomplicated she made everything sound. As you know, I always say that makeup and fashion are so similar, and really not that complicated at all. When you the know the rules, then you can experiment. So once you learn a few basic rules, it’s so much easier to apply them to your own wardrobe or makeup bag, and things aren’t as overwhelming.

I think I lean more toward Italian or French even though I can’t seem top pulling the circle skirt!
I would agree on both Emily. Italian and French style are so elegant, and I love how you can wear these in any season, and not just in Summer. 🙂
