How to rock pantsuits in 5 different ways
What's the story
Formerly only worn by businesspeople, the pantsuit has undergone a fashion revolution over the years. Women all over the world are embracing this power look in a variety of stylish ways. If you feel that wearing a suit makes you appear too somber and uninspired, we have some super-chic tips that will breathe fresh life into your suit.
Style 1
The monochrome look
Monochromatic styles are really simple to create and are always in vogue. One of the classic ways to wear a pantsuit, a monochrome look involves choosing one color and wearing it consistently from top to bottom. Then for added effect, wear some statement jewelry pieces. You can sport this look everywhere you go because it works well for both day and night.
Style 2
Pair it up with a crop top
Transform your pantsuit into a casual-chic outfit by ditching the traditional blouse for a crop top to keep it cool and casually stylish. Though it may look far less corporate, styling casually makes your appearance more contemporary and creates a strong statement look after work hours. You could also roll up your sleeves and wear sneakers or ankle boots to amp up your ensemble.
Style 3
Go bold with patterns
Break the traditional fashion norm and opt for bold colors or patterns. Patterns inject personality into your pantsuit ensemble. Consider designs such as stripes, floral, or paisley prints or even checkered prints. Balance the busy patterns with a solid-colored blouse and minimalistic accessories. For a boho vibe, opt for bright hues and paisley prints and pair it with an off-shoulder top or vintage t-shirt.
Style 4
Belt it up
Break the pattern and clinch the waist. Accentuate your waist with a statement belt. Cinching your pantsuit with a stylish belt not only adds definition but also elevates your overall look. This style works wonders with oversized or boxy blazer suits. You could also define your waist section with a belt bag layered over your suit.
Style 5
Add layers to the ensemble
A major trend in pantsuit styling involves layering. To add dimension, layer a structured blazer or jacket over your pantsuit. Experiment with various lengths and textures to create a layered style that is distinctly you. Consider choosing a long-line blazer instead of a typical one for the ideal statement look. Finally, complete the ensemble with a pair of comfortable high heels for added panache.
