Your Style Staples Start Here

For every well-curated wardrobe, there is an army of simplistic styling pieces that work tirelessly to ensure each individuals rotation of looks sail smoothly…. Within the styling world we call these wardrobe staples. Staples are timeless pieces with refined detail… enough to appeal to your uniqueness, but not too much that it causes conflict when styling a look. When styling, these items are heroes on their own, work to style trend-led pieces and my personal favourite… they can be layered for a perennial chic look, bringing ease to the everyday through their versatility.

And while every wardrobe needs clothing staples, it must also have accessory staples... in particular fine jewellery. So allow me to introduce you to your next jewellery portfolio item… pearl studs. A pearl’s power is in its lustre… the nacres gentle glow and various overtones from cool silvers to soft rose’s and warm golds, enhance each unique complexion when paired perfectly to the individual, bringing an elegant essence to every look they complete. UMUN Jewellery studio’s pearls have been crafted into studs, a minimal design…  their simplistic beauty appeals to each personality while elevating every look without exception.

So now I have landed staples on your fashion radar… allow me to show you just how essential they are by styling 3 unique looks, for 3 different occasions, all featuring a must-have slip dress, layered with additional wardrobe staples and of course all elevated by the lustre of UMUN Jewellery Studio’s pearl studs. 

Let the fun begin! Starting with our highest elevation and working our way back layer by layer….

A look for city nights calls for a fuss-free look that oozes elegance! The feature in this look is the slip dress crafted by an Australian designer in their signature Japanese cupro. The silhouette is cut on the bias, cinching the waist with a ruched tie for ultimate flattery. The delicate fabric billows out to a mid-length hem, showing off its angelic sheen as it gracefully sways in motion. The dress is a staple and show-stopper on its own… however to enhance the look pair with a matching handbag and barely-there heels in an unexpected print for a contemporary and captivating edge… keeping all tones in harmony to preserve elegance. Lastly adorn your lobes with your perfect pearl studs and witness as lustre and sheen whisper sweet nothings as their connection is simply undeniable. 

And now let’s layer up, as we take this dress and pearls from dinner-to-desk…

Once again starting with the slip dress, layer on a one-button blazer with light check detail to create shape, layering again with this seasons must-have trench coat. The art of layering shows great style, creativity and not-to-mention practicality, especially when the weather cools. Remember layering a monochromatic colourway is the chicest way to success, always mixing textures and fabrics to add depth and dimension. Keeping the look soft, slip into a pair of nude court shoes and slide a nude work tote over your arm. Complete the look by framing your face with pearl studs for a polished look imbued with fearless femininity.

And lastly, a look to inspire your street style…

There is nothing more on-trend then a slip skirt and knit pairing this season, but that doesn’t mean you need to invest in a slip skirt if you are loving this slip dress. The beauty of this dress lies in the ruched waist tie. This belt does not only define, but it also allows the silhouette to double as a slip skirt! Simply throw on the dress, layer with a light weight knit and tuck the front of the knit into the belt… and don’t worry the glossy finish of the dress’s fabric will ensure the knit drapes effortlessly over without any bunching. Then slip on your go-to white sneakers and a sling on a white cross body bag for a look of comfort and impeccable style. Finally add your finishing touch with the pearl studs bringing elegance and radiance to your everyday.
