ONE X 5

For the Menswear trend and my choice pick i have toyed between the key piece blazer or the trouser. Both the pieces are equally as important to the trend and i love both however as I did a Blazer for my last x5 then i'll do the trouser for the menswear trend.
Here is my pick of the trousers

Asos Tux Style Chiffon Insert 7/8 Trousers E52.48

 I picked these trousers out of all the vesatile styles that are on offer as I feel that practically everyone has a black trouser in their wardrobe. The style can be mixed and matched with almost everything and for every event or occassion that they would be worn to. This pair are affordable and as an ASOS obcessive I can tell you their clothes are good quality and do wash well (i might sound like your granny but these are the things that are important when buying clothes)

 Here are my 5 outfits

Body Rare Opulence at Topshop, Shoes River Island, Bag Asos, Watch Asos, Jewellery Belle Noel, Makeup Bobbi Brown

Jacket Asos, Top Topshop, Shoes Asos, Clutch Topshop, Necklace Miss Selfridge, Cuff Asos, Lipstick Mac, Nars Illuminator

Top, Jacket, Bag and Cuff all Asos, Shoes Aldo, Earrings Belle Noel, Makeup Nars

Jumper Asos, Bag Monsoon, Shoes River Island, Bangles Miss Selfridge, Glasses Asos

Blouse, Blazer and Shoes all Topshop, Coat River Island, Bag and Watch Asos

So there you have it, one affordable trousers and 5 ways to wear it. I thought this might have been one of my more difficult pieces to pair up but once i got started I had about 15 possible outfits. I surprise myself sometimes (wink wink). Now if only i had the money to match my levels of obsession, then i'd be happy. Hope ya'll enjoy. Let me know what you think and hold on tight for my last post on MensWear, Steal Her Style, it's an extra special one so pop back again soon.

ONE X 5

Following on from the Bold Colour and Colour Blocking Trends I have just about covered every angle possible. This trend is great for the summer and will bring a splash of colour to any grey day in Ireland. I have seen probably every Bold Colour on the high street and to finish this trend I want to show you my favourite piece from the high street and give you 5 examples of how i would wear this piece. I have chosen this Orange Blazer from Zara, also seen here and here.

As you can see in the photo you can dress this Jacket down with a simple pair of cutoff jeans and a green striped tshirt. This outfit is you everyday chores, hanging out, weekend type outfit. All pieces available from Zara.

I have now completely justified buying this fabulous piece. This is only 5 outfits but there are many more possible because the jacket is so versatile. When it comes to Zara jackets you are buying a piece of clothing that is not only comfortable but also such good quality. I will most definitely be saving up for this beaut to add to my collection.
Have you any Zara jackets/blazers? What do you think of the outfits? Will you be purchasing?
