The Art of Classic: Decoding the Old Money Fashion
It's time to level up our style elegant ladies !
Hey there, bestie!
Can't deny, there's something utterly charming about the "old money" fashion. It's like a secret society of elegance, classic taste, and timeless style. So, darling, if you're ready to channel your inner Grace Kelly, this is your guide to nailing the "old money" fashion. No trust fund required!
1. The Little Black Dress
Coco Chanel got it right when she designed the Little Black Dress (LBD). It's a staple piece of the old money style. The beauty of the LBD lies in its simplicity and versatility. Choose a well-tailored, high-quality piece that compliments your body shape and you'll never fail to make an impression.
Example : Kate Middleton
2. Tailored Suit
A crisp, tailored suit screams sophistication and power. It doesn't have to be a traditional suit either. Play with styles, like a classic blazer paired with tailored trousers or a pencil skirt. Don't shy away from playing with colors, but keep the tones neutral or subdued.
Example : Ivanka Trump
3. Classic Trench Coat
An iconic piece of the old money fashion is the trench coat. Think Burberry or Ralph Lauren! A good-quality trench coat will last you a lifetime, and it's perfect for any weather. Pair it with anything in your wardrobe, and voila, instant class!
Example : Melania Trump (she have MANY beautiful trenchs, just check her)
4. Timeless Accessories
Accessorizing is crucial in old money fashion, but remember, less is more! Choose classic, understated pieces that are high in quality. A pearl necklace, a vintage brooch, a leather handbag, or a silk scarf can add just the right amount of sophistication. And, of course, never underestimate the power of a good pair of sunglasses!
Example : Kate Middleton
5. Quality over Quantity
The essence of old money fashion is quality. It's about having fewer items in your wardrobe, but making sure they are well-crafted and long-lasting. Invest in items made from natural materials like wool, silk, and leather. Fast fashion? No, thank you!
6. Footwear
Well-made, comfortable footwear is a must. Leather loafers, ballet flats, and classic pumps should be your go-to. For casual outings, a pair of clean white sneakers will do the trick.
Example : Kate Middleton (she is the perfect example for that style, litteraly)
7. Confidence is Key
Finally, darling, remember that the real secret to the old money fashion is not just what you wear but how you wear it. It's about confidence, grace, and a sense of self-assuredness. So, own your look, stride with pride, and let your style do the talking!
Joining the old money fashion club is all about embracing a timeless aesthetic, valuing quality, and curating a wardrobe that tells a story of elegance. It's not about the price tag, it's about the attitude. Here's to looking classy, fabulous, and timelessly stylish!
Forever your style confidante,
