An all black ensemble is the easiest way to achieve a sartorial thumbs up. We love Emma Stones textured sheer top that she paired with sliming black slacks and classic heels. With little to none accessories, this classic look is all about elegance and sophistication.

Elle Macpherson

Young, fun and happy are the things we thought of when we saw Elle Macpherson strolling down the streets. A bright purple punch paired with a chic neutral tone is a sure way to play up an outfit. Paired with a string of wooden beads on her neck, and comfy daytime sandals, we cant help but give this look our stamp of approval.

Katie Holmes wears a basic white tank top under a dainty rushed cardigan and toughens it up with faded boyfriend jeans, and a dotted scarf. We love the little styling details that made this look so effortless. From the cuffed jeans to the partly buttoned top, her overall silhouette screamed easy breezy. Katie Holmes

how to wear: holiday must haves

With the holidays fast approaching, getting chic with traditional festive pieces is on the top of our list. Mads Constantino from The School of Fashion and the Arts shows you how to wear: red, polka dots and metallics - the three must have pieces this season.

Red
I am particularly fond of combining red with camel/tan wide leg pants finished off with a wood-detailed clutch and gold-shoulder sweepers

Top P748, Skirt P768, Bangle P498, Earrings P248, Heels P898

I like incorporating touches of red into an otherwise basic outfit (nude silk shirt with dark skinnies) pair with sky-high suede wedges and bold crimson lips to polish off the look.

Me
I am currently obsessed with metallic jackets! They look fabulous with feather skirts, sheer tops, suede pieces, and they liven up the shirt and skinnies combo.

Invest in a lame capelet and pair it with skinnies or a tulip skirt with tights! Whether in gold, silver or jewel tones such as emerald or sapphire, it adds a touch of festive sparkle perfect for the holidays!

Polka dots

Don a polka dot printed jacket with a solid colored bow-front silk blouse or vice-versa and neutral-colored trousers for a look that spells sophistication and fun!

Top P698, Dress P748, , Bracelet P648, Bangle P648

Experiment with varied sizes of polka dots prints on the pieces you plan to put together/layer. Personally, I prefer larger dots on my top to serve as my outfits focal point.

Look fresh with a dose of mint in casual silhouettes. Denim shorts and breathable fabrics are a must have for tropical weather, and look ultra chic when done with the right details. In this case, scalloped hems, drawstring waist, white embroidery and a tough metal necklace for added spunk.

Featured Shopper

Entrepreneur and mother of two, Cheryl Pages-Alba tells us about her style aesthetic.
My personal style is sort of contradicting, I try to stick to more classic looks, (subtle and simple) but I also like trying new things and experimenting with whats current. I always put comfort before anything else. Fashion should be fun, so I try not to take it too seriously. I usually stay away from dark tones because the color that you wear reflects the attitude you carry throughout the day. I find that bright colors make me feel happy. My go-to piece of clothing is a pair of shorts. Theyre comfortable, perfect for our weather, and you can make it appropriate for a day at the mall or sexy girls night out. WAGW has extremely unique pieces thats fashionably current, as well as the classic pieces and staples that every girls closet needs. The best part is that you get value for their clothes!
