The post 6 ways to wear double denim in 2024 appeared first on Now To Love.

]]>
I’ll be honest, I love double denim but have always found it such a tricky trend to navigate. Mainly because it can make me feel a little masculine and always manages to give me Justine Timberlake in the early 2000s vibes, but not in a good way!

But whether we like it or not, this dynamic duo pairing is back in a big way in 2024, and we’ve uncovered some celebrity-inspired looks that will have your doubling down on your denim looks right away.

Blazer sharp

Cate Blanchett always manages to tweak a trend to suit her style, and this blazer and wide leg jeans combo is no exception.

The white shirt and sneakers tie the pairing together while breaking up the denim on denim effect.

Faded denim

Stone-wash denim styles lend perfectly to effortless day outfits.

We love Julianne Moore’s buttoned-up effect, so elegantly elevated with statement earrings and killer heels.

Pop a pretty top or camisole underneath to offer a girly alternative when the weather warms.

Go West!

Adding an outer layer in a different shade can help to break up double denim. We love how this warm camel sits strikingly against the bold blue.

Brave the full western look complete with tassels like Lily Aldridge here, or tone it down with a suede leather jacket or classic blazer in an alternative style for a more subtle finish.

One recent trend that seems to not be going anywhere is cowboy boots, and they’re surprisingly versatile.

Here’s our top picks for cowboy boots so you can rock the trend this winter.

    Also, take into consideration when and where you’re planning to wear these. If they’re strictly for the home you can go for something more formless, but if you’re aiming to nail the athleisure look then you can shop something a bit more ‘fashion-forward’.

    The post Denim dreaming: Where to find the best women’s jeans for every body shape appeared first on Now To Love.

    ]]>
    Is there anything better than finding the perfect pair of jeans?

    Sure, it’s up there with the first sip of coffee in the morning, biting into that decadent croissant or even stepping on a particularly crunchy leaf.

    But for us fashion fiends of the world, a flawless fit in a pair of jeans incites the greatest joy of all.

    Now, as jeans continue to be the epitome of cool and casual style, it’s as good a time as any to start looking for your next trusty pair of denim.

    Whether they’re paired with a plain white tee for a classic look, or if you dress them up with a silky cami or blouse and whack on some heels – there’s no denying the humble jeans can make a very chic statement.

    There’s just one small catch – it can be a mission to find a style that suits you, especially if you’ve been blessed with a unique (but still just as wonderful) body shape.

    But fear not, denim devotees, we’ve got you sorted for your jean-shopping extravaganzas to come. Keep scrolling as we delve into the best styles for every body shape.

    Image: Getty

    Curvy

    If you’re blessed with the best kind of humps, chances are you’ll look incredible in the right pair of jeans.

    We recommend finding a high-waisted skinny or straight-leg style – the higher waistline will accentuate your shape by holding in the tum and flaunt the bum. Meanwhile, a fitted leg style will provide the silhouette your pins are begging to show off.

    If you’re conscious of your bum looking bigger than you’d like (not that you should – there’s a reason why the tune Baby Got Back remains a banger to this day), opt for a style that has wide pockets, they’ll balance your behind in the best way.

    See our favourite pick below:

    01

    Levi’s Curve High-Waisted Mom Jeans

    $69 (usually $129.95) at Myer

    These high-waisted Mom Jeans will never go out of style. They sit high on your waist and can be styled with sneakers for a casual look, or dressed up with a pair of heels.

    Sizes: 16 – 24

    Key features:

    • Tapered leg for tailored style
    • Zip fly
    • 5-pocket styling

    Bigger thighs

    If you feel like the world ain’t ready for your jelly, think again.

    Having generous thighs has some major benefits. For starters, you’ll never have to worry about losing that pesky gherkin out the other end of your burger as you take a bite, because it’ll just fall straight onto your lap (bye-bye thigh gap – see ya never).

    Better yet, being blessed with ample thigh mass means you’ll look seriously good in the right pair of jeans.

    Our recommendation? Opt for a style with a slim or skinny ankle to flaunt your curves in all the right places. And much like our curvy fellows, look out for a high-waisted cut to help to give you that hourglass look.

    See our favourite pick below:

    02

    Levi’s Curve Mile High Super Skinny Jeans Plus

    $149.90 at The Iconic

    This sleek pair has just the right amount of stretch in all the right places so you can move about with ease and in style.

    Sizes: 16 – 24

    Key features:

    • Cotton-rich denim; added stretch
    • Super skinny leg
    • High-rise waistband

    Also available at:

    Flat bottom

    You might struggle to shake it when the Black Eyed Peas’ My Humps comes on, but you’ll have a whole lot more to give when you’re rocking your favourite pair of denim.

    And in actual fact, your new catchphrase should really be ‘No bum? No problem!’, because there’s a whole world of jean styles out there that’ll flatter your form.

    We recommend mixing things up with a shorter hemline that’ll draw attention to the upper part of your legs. A bootleg or straight high-rise jean will also lift your derriere and have you shakin’ it to T-Pain’s Low in no time at all.

    See our favourite pick below:

    03

    Sailor Jean

    $159.95 at Rolla’s Jeans

    One of Rolla’s most flattering fits, this pair is specially angled and shaped in the back for a “truly peachy-looking butt”.

    Sizes: 5 – 16

    Colours: Ashley blue, Lily blue, rinse black, eco ruby blue, Sophie and Birkin blue

    Key features:

    • High rise, slim fit with a sailor wide leg
    • Longer leg length, also available in regular

    Petite

    She may be but little, but with the right pair of jeans, boy can she be fierce.

    If you fall in the perfectly petite category, we again recommend playing around with different kick, flare and high-waisted jean styles that’ll elongate your legs and give you a confidence boost to boot.

    Never underestimate the power of a strong shoe either – even a kitten heel that lifts the sole of your foot slightly will make you look taller.

    See our favourite pick below:

    04

    ASOS Design Petite Flared Jeans

    $63 at ASOS

    These stretchy pair of jeans are specifically designed for a petite fit – taking out the need to get them tailored yourself.

    Sizes: W23/L26 – W34/L28

    Colours: mid blue and light blue

    Key features:

    • Flared straight fit
    • High rise
    • Belt loops

    Tall

    Are you often asked whether you play basketball? Is the task of changing light bulbs often assigned to you? If these feats are all too real, chances are you fall into the ‘tall’ category.

    When it comes to shopping for the right pair of denim, a wide-leg mom or boyfriend-jean style with a mid-rise waist will balance your figure.

    A Bootcut pair of jeans is also a great option – they’re slimmer on the thighs but wider at the ankle which will shape and flatter your assets.

    05

    Eva Wide

    $189.95 at Neuw Denim

    Available in a 32″ leg, these jeans will have your legs looking miles long.

    Sizes: 6 – 14

    Colours: royal indigo, noir, Parisienne and resonate

    Key features:

    • Mid-rise wide leg
    • Flattering long leg length
    • Fitted through the waist hip and thigh

    Slim & straight

    For some, keeping things straight and narrow applies quite literally.

    If you’re not-so-curvy but want to flaunt your assets in their best light, we recommend a classic skinny leg or jegging style to provide both shape and comfort.

    When it comes to length, the world is pretty much your oyster – a cropped look will casual things up for the day while a full-length style is perfect to dress up with a pair of heels.

    See our favourite pick below:

    06

    Hi Pins Skinny Jean

    $109 (usually $139.95) at Wrangler

    Add a vintage touch to your wardrobe with these classic blue jeans that are designed to be worn super tight all over with cropped ankle length.

    Let’s talk about a lingerie game-changer which is the plunge bra.

    If you’re looking to add a dash of sophistication and confidence to your wardrobe, these beauties are the ultimate style secret you need.

    Ready to embrace a more daring neckline and add a touch of elegance to your day or night look? We get it – the struggle with bra straps peeking out and ruining your fabulous style is all too familiar. But fear not! Plunge bras are here to save the day and be your ultimate fashion lifesaver.

    Plunge bras are not your everyday undergarments; they are the hidden gems of the lingerie world. With their deep neckline, they hug your curves and effortlessly vanish under low-cut tops, dresses, or even that casual blouse you just want to look extra special in.

    Have we convinced you to add a plunge bra to your lingerie lineup? Below we’re taking a look at some of our picks for the best options to shop this year.

    Key features:

    What are the benefits of a plunge bra?

    Plunge bras are perfect for special occasions when you want to wear something with a plunging neckline, such as weddings, parties, or date nights.

    The deep V-shaped cut in the front is specifically designed to remain hidden under low-cut tops and dresses, giving you that seamless and stylish look.

    Another benefit of a plunge bra is its ability to enhance and lift, almost working like a push-up bra when you want to add volume and achieve a fuller look.

    Whether you love the warmth and classic style of a wool coat, want to try a touch of leather, or prefer the chunkier coverage that comes from a puffer, we’ve uncovered five coat trends to try this season.

    Classic camel

    This stylish camel coat is one Catherine, Princess of Wales wears on high rotation. We love the way it pairs so perfectly with other camel tones to create a chic, understated finish,

    Camel Coat N/P $53.41 from Amazon Australia

    Timeless trench

    Trench coats can be worn all year round, so are well-worth the investment. The trick to nailing the trend is to go buy one slightly oversized in order to layer over knits for extra warmth in winter. Then when spring comes along, this lighter-weight coat makes a great cover up in milder weather.

    For anyone who loves the elegant sophistication of a well-cut blazer or tailored trousers, soft tailoring offers an equally elegant alternative to traditional structured silhouettes with a less corporate look and feel.

    Characterised by its fluid lines and gentle draping, the trend effortlessly bridges the gap between formal and casual wear. This versatile style embraces comfort without sacrificing refinement, making it a favourite among those seeking timeless yet contemporary looks. From blazers with relaxed shoulders to flowing trousers and softly cinched waistlines, soft tailoring offers effortlessly chic ensembles suitable for any occasion.

    Soften suiting

    Experiment with different silhouettes to find what suits you best. Oversized blazers, wide-leg trousers, and draped tops or relaxed shirts and blouses are all great options for soft tailoring. This trend lend perfectly toward tonal ensembles as the top top toe effect adds to the fluidity of the outfit.

    Choose lightweight fabrics

    Opt for fabrics like cotton, linen, silk, or blends that offer comfort and lightness. These fabrics enhance the relaxed vibe of soft tailoring while still looking polished. Layering is key to mastering the soft tailoring trend. Try layering lightweight knits under a blazer or adding a loose trench coat over a tailored dress for added dimension and interest.

    Embrace neutral tones

    Neutral colours like beige, cream, grey, and soft pastels are perfect for soft tailoring as they exude sophistication and versatility. Accessories can elevate any outfit. Consider adding statement jewellery, a sleek belt, or a structured bag to complete your soft tailoring look without overpowering it.

    After years on the shelf, statement belts are proving the season’s hottest accessory and their comeback is not merely as functional accessories. These star pieces redefine and elevate any ensemble.

    Waist belts

    Waist belts add a chic touch when layered over blazers and dresses, effortlessly defining your silhouette. Wider styles sit well over heavy garments or chunky chunky knits, whereas narrow belts compliment fine fabrics and are a good choice if you have a shorter torso.

    Chain belts

    Chain belts effortlessly transition from day to night, adding an edgy touch to any outfit. Whether paired with casual denim or trousers during the day or draped over an evening dress for a glamorous night out.

    Wrap belts

    These are all about cinching in the waist and look great over both fitted or floaty tops and dresses. Leather varieties look luxe and instantly elevate your look, or for a fun alternative, chose fabric wraps as a way of injecting colour or prints into an outfit.

    Double up

    Ok, so this trend might be a case of runway may not meet real life for some of us, but as you can see with Bella Hadid below, celebrities have embraced it in a bit way. Also, some garments you’ll see coming through this season are specifically designed with double belt loops so you have no choice but to wear the two. If you do try the trend, a quick tip to note is the lower belt may need to be slightly longer as it’s circling a wider area of the body.

    Low slung

    While some wear the trend really low on the hips, a good tip is to adjust the belt placement until it feels natural and suits your shape. The overall look is that the belt is the decorative piece (so often a wider style) that sits over the top of jeans, trousers or skirts, not threaded into belt loops.

    Complementing the western fashion front we’re seeing encouraged by the likes of Beyonce, this trend is about buckles, eyelets and embellishment. It’s even given the 90s disc belt a revival. Suit yourself by wearing it low slung, to toughen up jeans, or decorate and shape the waistline.

    How To Keep Your Pets Warm All Winter Long https://www.nowtolove.com.au/news/real-life/take-5/how-to-keep-your-pets-warm-all-winter-long/ Tue, 18 Jun 2024 05:16:03 +0000 https://www.nowtolove.com.au/?p=516609 All The Signs Your Pets Are Cold — And What To Do About It

    The post How To Keep Your Pets Warm All Winter Long appeared first on Now To Love.

    ]]>
    If you’re feeling chilled to the bone right now, it’s safe to say your pet is in the same boat. While your dog or cat has some extra insulation thanks to its furry coat, animals feel the cold just like us. And while they certainly don’t say as much, they have their unique ways of letting you know.

    Three key signs your cat or dog is feeling the cold

    According to an article published by The Conversation, postdoctoral researcher, Melissa Starling shares this rule of thumb:

    “If I can feel [the pet’s] ears or feet are a bit chilly to touch, that suggests their core temperature might be a bit low.”

    Aside from cold ears or paws, shivering is the most obvious sign that your beloved fur baby is feeling the chill.

    Keep an eye on your pet’s posture, too. Are they sleeping tucked into a little ball? Or are they walking around with their spine hunched over? These are common signs that they might need some extra snuggles to warm up.

    It’s also important to monitor your pet’s behavioural changes once temperatures plummet. Some pets will become more lethargic and begin avoiding cold floors. Others will sleep all day or retreat to a warm spot in the house, like a patch of sunlight. Alternatively, some pets will let their discomfort be known with excessive barking, meowing and even whining.

    In particular, smaller or senior pets are more likely to feel it when the temperature drops lower than seven degrees, due to their struggle to retain body heat.

    But remember, However, that doesn’t always apply to breeds like Pomeranians, Alaskan Malamutes or Persians, who have thick fur and an undercoat to keep warm. Dog or cat breeds with shorter coats are the ones who really need to make up for their lack of fluff. Think Italian Greyhounds or Chihuahuas – they’re not just shaking for fun! Keep an eye out for how they’re doing. If you’re concerned check out these pet first aid tips and consult your vet.

    How to keep your pets warm

    If you notice any of the above signs, it’s time to bring your four-legged friend inside. If you don’t want to sit outside in the cold, then your pet certainly doesn’t either!

    Now, if you’re trying to save on heating or don’t have an air conditioning unit in your home, the best way to keep your furry friends warm is to help them rug up.

    Thankfully, leading pet supplier Petstock has all your snuggly needs sorted with its new winter collection.

    With a lineup of cosy clothing and accessories, Petstock caters to pooches and cats alike. From warm fleece jumpers to waterproof rain jackets and even insulated puffer vests, there’s something for every pet – big or small.

    ]]>
    Catherine, Princess of Wales has continuously proven she’s the queen of fashion – especially when it comes to outfit repeating.

    The princess has many key pieces in her wardrobe that she’s worn time and time again, and she has demonstrated that rewearing and upcycling items that are already in your closet is often the way to go.

    As a literal princess, Kate Middleton, 42, attends countless public engagements every year, where she always looks the epitome of classy and stylish.

    But because she appears at so many events, Catherine constantly needs outfits that are suited to the type of engagement she attends. But she doesn’t always buy new pieces.

    The 42-year-old has favoured designers whose pieces she reaches for regularly and has worn numerous times, and she has also often upcycled items to give them a new life years later.

    From suits to blazers to dresses and evening gowns, these are all the times Catherine, Princess of Wales has reworn pieces from her enviable wardrobe.

    Jenny Packham Dress

    2023 & 2024

    At the 2024 Trooping the Colour parade, Kate made her first public appearance in months wearing an upcycled white midi Jenny Packham dress.

    The dress was first worn the day before King Charles III’s coronation and originally featured a black striped belt and neckline, and the princess wore a pair of black pumps with her hair down.

    This time around, the belt had been tweaked slightly, while the neckline was changed to feature a matching oversized bow. The princess also chose to pair the dress with a white hat, white heels, and wore her hair in a glamorous updo.

    Catherine Walker Dress

    2021 & 2023

    Catherine loves a coat dress and this design with its vibrant red colour and dramatic bow on the neckline was perfect for the Together At Christmas carol service in 2021 where she debuted it.

    Are bralettes good for breasts?

    There is currently no evidence that suggests wearing a bra versus a bralette is better for your breasts. Thus, people who are looking for comfort and support can rest assured that bralettes can provide that without causing any sagging.

    Those with fuller busts especially may find that they prefer bralettes over regular bras because they don’t constrict or flatten your chest like many regular bras.

    Bralettes also typically feature adjustable straps and bands which means they are very versatile, plus they offer breathability without sacrificing coverage.

    Is it OK to wear a bralette everyday?

    Those who despise underwire bras because they dig in and cause discomfort, sometimes even pain, will be reassured to know that it is perfectly fine to wear bralettes as your everyday bra.

    It’s a common misconception that when we buy lingerie, we’re doing so solely for our partners.

    But the truth is that there’s nothing more attractive than feeling confident and good in your own skin.

    The many handbags of Jennifer Lopez https://www.nowtolove.com.au/lifestyle/fashion/jennifer-lopez-handbags/ Tue, 04 Jun 2024 06:42:42 +0000 https://www.nowtolove.com.au/?p=515175 They're not all Birkins.

    The post The many handbags of Jennifer Lopez appeared first on Now To Love.

    ]]>
    Jennifer Lopez has long been an icon of style whether she’s in concert or walking the red carpet.

    The star absolutely stunned recently in her nearly see-through Met Gala look. And who can forget the iconic green Versace silk chiffon dress she wore to the 42nd Grammy Awards in 2000, making red carpet history?

    For Jennifer Lopez, every outing is an opportunity to be fashionable. (Image: Getty)

    Yet despite how daring and memorable her events style may be, J. Lo’s off-duty looks are arguably more interesting.

    Case in point: The Atlas actress, who’s been at the centre of divorce rumours with Ben Affleck, went on a casual Sunday stroll with her daughter Emme through a vintage flea market in Los Angeles.

    True to her ‘Jenny-from-the-block’ roots, Lopez elevated her 1970s-inspired look with long locks, chic sunnies – and a very rare and expensive ($100,000!) Hermès bag. Because, why not?

    After all, nothing says, “I’m here for a bargain” quite like flaunting a bag that costs more than some people’s houses.

    Here, we take a look back at her most iconic off-duty handbag selections where she proves that even a mundane trip to the markets can be a runway moment when you’re J.Lo.

    J.LO’S BEST OFF-DUTY HANDBAG MOMENTS

    01

    Hermès Birkin 25 in crocodile leather

    Jennifer Lopez enjoys a day out with her daughter Emme, wearing an oversized blazer, flared jeans and a rare Hermès Birkin bag. While her love may not cost a thing, her Birkin bag is worth a pretty penny.

    02

    Dior Mini Lady in emerald green

    Jennifer Lopez steps out wearing Dior from head to (almost) toe in LA. Her boots are, of course, Louboutin. The emerald green handbag offers the perfect pop of colour to her neutral ensemble.

    03

    Hermès Birkin 25 in vanilla matte alligator

    On a recent trip to Paris with her daughter Emme, J.Lo went all out French-girl chic. The star wears wide-leg jeans, a classic button-up top, Stuart Weitzman pumps and a stunning white Hermès Birkin bag with oversized sunnies. Pulling at her daughter’s arm, Lopez is (almost) just like us.

    04

    Hermès Birkin 35

    Back with another Birkin, J.Lo rocks a casual chic look, replete with dirty denim, the controversial Y2K trend that’s trying to make a comeback, a cosy sweater and oversized sunglasses in New York.

    Jennifer Lopez wears a long trench coat and sports a teal chanel bag

    05

    Quilted Chanel in aqua

    Looks like J.Lo loves her dirty denim as much as her beloved Birkin bags. She adds a surprise pinch of pretty to her grunge look with a dainty aqua Chanel bag.

    Blazers have long been a mainstay of sophisticated style, seamlessly blending professionalism with contemporary fashion.

    This season, blazers are more versatile than ever, offering endless possibilities for both casual and formal looks.

    Keep it classic

    Want a standout blazer ensemble? Then eye-catching gold buttons and a structured fit are instantly elevating regardless of how casual the look.

    So whether you’re stepping out in your favourite jeans, or opting for a sharp trouser pairing, a bit of detailing creates an instantly polished finish.

    Style secret: Add a pair of sleek winter boots or detailed loafers, then top of with a contrasting bag option such as Julianne’s colourful carry-all, to give off an effortlessly elegant vibe with a fun and modern twist.

    The check blazer transcends seasons and has versatile appeal because you can choose between a conservative print or more outlandish options.

    It’s also an opportunity to lean into colour if that’s your preference, so play around with shades to suit your style and personality.

    Style secret: To avoid checks looking too conservative or dated, choose modern blazer cuts such as an over-sized, boxy shape. When it comes to layering, take advantage of the textured nature of the print to integrate a variety of fabrics.

    In a breakaway from conservative suiting, colour has made an in incredible impact in this otherwise corporate-dressing arena over the past few seasons.

    And given it’s popularity across a range of age groups, coupled with it’s ability to flatter a variety of body shapes, coloured suiting is a trend that we see continuing into the foreseeable future.

    Style secret: Confidence is key when it comes to pulling off this top-to-toe combination, so start by choosing a shade that suits and flatters. From there, play around with monochromatic pairings, such as a black evening top for after five dressing, or a crisp white shirt or t-shirt to dress things down by day. If you’re one to really embrace colour, then inject a contrasting shade to create a bold colour-blocking effect.

    And remember, the obvious advantage of a two-piece combination is the ability to create a variety of wardrobe options. So break up the two pieces and mix and match with your best basics to instantly update your style.

    Success in a dress

    What’s not to love about this hybrid fashion piece – it combines the tailored elegance of a classic blazer with the chic allure of a dress.

    And while Eva opts for the celebrity shock value of exceptionally short, there are plenty of styles on the market that offer a little more coverage.

    Style secret: Look for soft-tailored styles that are a bit more fluid, so you get the structured jacket effect with the softness of a dress or skirt. Belted styles, or swapping out ties for a leather waist belt, offer additional detailing that help nip in waistlines and create shape. Layer over turtlenecks and tights and wear with knee length boots to take the look well into the winter months.

    The skirt pairing worn by the Catherine, Princess of Wales adds to the feminine appeal of this blazer fit.

    Style secret: For a chic, yet casual alternative to this jacket and skirt combo, inject your favourite pair of skinny jeans or trousers and this season’s must-have ballet pumps. Wide-legged trousers and sky-high stilettos also transforms this fit for after five.

    Dresses are a great investment piece. These one-piece wonders look striking all on their own (especially in an new season shade or print), and because they require little more than a nice pair of shoes, bag and jewellery to style them up.

    They are the perfect “throw-on and look fabulous in an instant” option.

    Style tip: The warm undertones of peach pair perfectly with gold, rose gold or soft pastel accessories.

    Play around with peach outer layers to modernise a white tee and blue denim combination.

    This soft shade paired with the classic combo creates a laid-back cool, casual finish with a soft, feminine touch.

    Style tip: Incorporate low-key accessories such as white sneakers and a cross-body bag in a peach shade to keep the vibe casual.

    Combing peach and camel pieces is a surprising yet effective pairing.

    Layer a camel blazer over a peach top or dress for a polished and put-together ensemble.

    Style tip: Rather than go for a matchy matchy finish with accessories add in contrasting shades for an edgy finish like Olivia.

    Peach and white create a delicate balance.

    If you’re wearing a peach-colored piece as the focal point, such as a blouse or skirt, pair it with white to keep the overall look light and bright.

    Style tip: Not all peaches are the same. Some may lean more towards orange, while others may have pink undertones. Experiment with different shades to find one that complements your skin tone.
