The Co – Ord Story

Hello,

“To me, clothing is a form of self – expression. There are hints about who you are in what you wear.” – Marc Jacobs.

It’s been awhile since the co – ordinates  are into fashion and are setting trends everywhere and in every way. In Resort 2012 collection, a designer named Phoebe Philo came up with different types of clothing all styled together in the same floral print. Since then this fashion style has risen to its best possible way. We have different kinds of matching sets in stylized prints, geometric patterns, floral prints to name a few. It is an easy look which has taken the fashion world with a storm.

A lot of people are hesitant to wear bold prints and patterns when it comes to co – ordinates or matching sets. However if worn with perfect balance by maintaining the harmony between your body shape and prints/patterns you choose, it will be nothing but the best look on you. And plus there is nothing wrong in experimenting with new looks. This way you’ll explore many other styles which suit you. One of the best things about this look is that, it needs minimal thinking because you know that you are wearing is a matching set which just needs to be accessorised. And if you feel that you are still hesitant about spending money on a style you are not sure of, you can always rent it at the fashion rental websites. One such website is Flyrobe.

I was trying a matching set for the first time too, and like many others I was hesitant as well to spend on a style which I wasn’t positive about. So I came across this amazing fashion rental website named Flyrobe which rents out the outfits of the best brands for much lesser price. All you have to do is log on to that website, select the preferred style and set in the date and time of delivery. Once you have chosen the outfit you want to buy, you can checkout and proceed for the payment options along with your address. The best part is that you get to keep the outfit for 3 days. They have amazing and authentic collection of clothing.

For my look, I wanted to keep it simple, however wanted to try out the floral print matching set. So I chose this amazing co – ordinate set of shorts and crew neck crop top which had medium sized floral print all over it. The outfit’s fabric was polyester which was an easy maintenance. Along with the outfit Flyrobe gave me complimentary black and gold earrings which were super cute. To complete my look I wore my all time favourite chocolate brown boots. This gave my overall look a balanced and easy – going appearance.

Always choose the prints or pattern you feel that you are comfortable trying or are comfortable with. The matching sets should be of a silhouette which you have tried and tested. Instead of wearing everything that matchy matchy, go for the solid accessories like a solid coloured statement necklace, footwear and a clutch/bag. There is no necessity of going by the rules, however the solid colours could help you keeping your overall look grounded and at ease. It will provide you with more confidence and versatility.
