Frills and Ruffles!! Ewww!!

Hello, my lovelies and a huge thank you for stopping by today! I hope you’re well and ready for my tips on how to wear frills or a ruffle. A) you’re not really into them but still like to keep on fashion trends. B) you’re daunted at the thought but loving this trend!

As I said in the Trends 2017 I have been keeping a close eye on the runways. One of the biggest trends that were impossible to ignore was ruffles, everywhere! Now I am not one for a ruffle look usually. However, I thought of a clever way of incorporating the ruffle in a more subtle manner. However, some are still slightly daunting!

Frills for Everday

One frill or ruffle at a time is the answer! Just one little ruffle on the cuff or a frill on the top. To try it out for me, I purchased a few items from Asos to play with.

My Outfit

I started with this gorgeous neon rose frill Bardot top that sits of the shoulder. It has just the one very large frill around the fold over and hem and therefore it isn’t too much. You don’t see this top and think, ‘wow frills’, but it is. It’s done with a subtlety anybody could wear. However, it is a little on the cropped side so be aware of that.

Accessories

This top did make my neck area appear really long and bare though. So I also invested in the lovely Lace jewel choker. Just to add a bit of a break up in the outfit but I love the chunky’ness’ of it.

I paired these two with some high waist ripped jeans with fishnets tights underneath. I think looks really edgy and keeps your knees warm (lol). Also, I can tuck in my mum tum so always a bonus (pahahaha). My pleather jacket with the fur collar as it’s so perfect for Spring. I also chose chain clad black trainers as I am me. I wish I had a pair of black boots with the gold heel to wear with this outfit. How cute would that look though!?!?!? I also chose a chunky zip bag to match the outfit.

My makeup look I went for a bronzed eye with just waterline eyeliner and mascara. Also with a bold pink lip to match the top, ‘Persian Rose’ by MUA. I kept my cheeks and face matched bronze with a little highlighter on my cheeks. For my hair, I went for a renewed 90’s look. Two strands at the front, however, I added a half up and down messy bun. Just to keep it a little modern.

So there you have it my loves how to rock ruffles or frills when your not sure how! The one thing I will say is the completely off the shoulder piece can be annoying as it pops up all the time! I will try to find another I think one that isn’t off the shoulder, however, I still love this top!
