Co-ord sets are my absolute favorite trend for this season. As you may have noticed from my other posts, I always tend to color coordinate my outfits because I hate to look mismatched. So co-ords are the answer to those days when I have absolutely no idea of what to wear. They are one of the most versatile styles that have EVER been invented. Why?

  1. You can easily adapt them to every formality level. Casual? Put on some white sneakers and off you go (my solution for every fashion problem there is). Formal? pair the co-ord with a cute clutch and stiletto high heels and you’ll look amazingly put-together and stylish. Somewhere in between? Medium-heeled ankle booties are the perfect complement for this in-the-middle situation. (Like the photo above. We were going to a wine-tasting event. It was neither casual nor formal, so I recurred to my well worn and loved black heeled booties. They are a lifesaver.)
  2. Bored of wearing the two pieces together? Mix and match with your basics wardrobe and voilĂ ! Three separate outfits by just buying one. For example, I can totally imagine this blue floral skirt with a white crop top, light pink bag and matching light pink sandals… or the floral crop top with a deep blue flowy trousers. Just use what you have in hand.

As said above, I wanted to upgrade the basic co-ord with some medium-heeled booties so it looked half casual half ‘I-tried-but-not-too-hard’. I added a matching black bag that can be worn with a gold metal handle or just as a clutch and some gold accesories (a couple of rings, star-studs, etc). The outfit just made itself and looked like a hella more thought-of outfit. I’m in love!
