Utilitarian Focused

Combining fashion and practicality, the utilitarian aesthetic strikes the perfect balance between style and comfort, ensuring broad appeal. To create a utilitarian outfit, think cargo pants, boilersuits, and anything with plenty of pockets, buttons, and zippers.

Accessories should match the vibe. Consider a sleek hobo tote bag with an extra roomy interior, a multifunctional backpack with a quilted finish for added style, or a chic crossbody bag for hands-free convenience. Chunky lug-sole boots are another surefire way to achieve the aesthetic. All of these elements will help you master the evergreen utilitarian chic look.

Casually Polished

There is sophistication to be found in simplicity. Street style tends to be minimalist as it is designed for everyday wear. These versatile wardrobe staples are easily mixed and matched, creating many different looks and maximising wearability.

To elevate a casual outfit, it is essential to accessorise with the right pieces. For instance, a skinny belt instantly refines a tank top and maxi skirt combination. Adding a bright accessory, like the Gabine saddle bag in beige, introduces a pop of colour, making the outfit more striking. Achieve a casual-chic look by pairing a simple black tube dress with the mini silver Vertigo bag for a touch of high-octane shine, or a frilled denim slip-on dress with a matching bag for a coordinated finish.

Corpcore Inspired

The office siren trend, but make it street. By taking a more streetwear-friendly approach to corporate wear, you can ensure longevity and versatility in your fashion pieces. Blazers are a fail-safe option; opting for a loose, oversized fit instantly achieves a cool-girl aesthetic. Finishing the look with a structured top-handle bag adds a nod to classic corporate style.

Breaking up a black blazer and pointed-toe wedges with shiny gold micro-shorts is an unexpected move that makes a bold statement. Alternatively, borrow from the boys with a cropped shirt, wide-legged pants, and a loose tie for insouciant charm. A burgundy red bag injects colour and personality, making the look more exciting for the streets.
