Street Stylin'...

The best part about this blog is seeing endless pictures of beautiful girls in beautiful clothes.  What makes each special is the difference in every individuals style.

Have you ever noticed that your most chic and well dressed friends often have the tiniest wardrobes?  It's the way we swear!  Know what you have, have it displayed well and always neat and tidy.  This way you can see what you have and what to put with it.  Do you have a wardrobe full of the same thing?  20 pairs of jeans anyone?

There are a few rules we like to live by...

*  If you're not going to wear it DON'T BUY IT....Even if it's on sale 
*  If it's not going to match anything in your wardrobe DON'T BUY IT
*  If you like it but don't have anywhere to wear it DON'T BUY IT
*  If you don't need it DON'T BUY IT

Who knows?  You might just now be able to afford the piece you really love!

Below are some of our favourite pics today just picked off random search engines...
You can begin to see a pattern and identify what you need (and most probably already have) in your wardrobe to look as chic as these girls - all day everyday!






Basic well cut and quality t shirts are definitely a staple.  As are a pair of black stovepipes; evidently a pair of ankle boots are a must!


We really, really hate denim shorts.  This outfit would look more finished if it had a pair of pants...even ankle biter jeans...But we do LOVE the coat.  A coat in a standout fabric is also a must.  However, if you live in Australia not always an essential so put it in your 'nice to have' column, not necessity. 


Vest and sneakers always look amazing and not just together, with most outfits.  Trainers, lace ups - whatever you want to call them as long as they're not your GYM SNEAKERS.  Our favourite are Converse.


This photo (well the left half anyway!) is just gorgeous.  We always love chic black; black will always be the new black.  Leopard print flats should definitely be a staple in every man woman and childs wardrobe (we exaggerate but you understand).



Fur (faux if that's the way you roll) always looks fabulous and a breton tee is just a no brainer.  Ah these girls look amazing.





We love little pops of colour, especially in the form of these glorious suede booties.



Hats are a recent love of ours... Usually reserved for wankers we've come around and jumped on the hatship.  We LOVE them.  Especially this fedora.


Sorry but this man is  an essential - he's gorgeous!


This whole outfit is just amazing..........!



A blazer!  Everyone knows you need one of those....The best blazer i've ever had is a WHYRED one...You can buy it here http://hownowmadamcow.com/WHYRED/maxi-blazer



Breton tee, cardi, skinny jeans and a hat - perfection!  Imagine how amazing this would look with some red converse....


Must have these ankle suede black wedge boots.  Now please...

NB:  These are outfit pieces that we think every wardrobe should have as they go with EVERYTHING.  Less is always more and when all your pieces correlate it declutters your wardrobe and reduces that 'what to wear' stress...

If you would like some help please contact us mim@hownowmadamcow.com and we can arrange a meeting to do it all for you.

  1. Great rules, although I think I often fail on 'don't need it...' ; )
