THE MAGIC OF GOING ONE SIZE UP #ANDYTIPS


One of my most favourite styling tips is something that I have been doing for years but I have never openly talked about. You guys already know that I am tall, so by default I’ve always been “forced” to look into trying bigger sizes in coats and jacket simply because my torso is quite long and I hate when things are too short on me. This experimentation throughout the years has made me come to the realisation that going one size up (and sometimes two) in coats and jackets can really make a HUGE difference in how the garment looks.

My research is conclusive! Going one size up will make your coats and jackets look more expensive and most importantly, WAY more chic. For instance, this coat on the picture  is actually 3 sizes bigger than I would normally take but I realised as I was trying it that the bigger I went, the cooler it looked. I guess its a preference thing but whenever you go coat shopping next, try it! You might find that you will never shop for a coat in your size again ;)

  1. I sometimes go one size up or more for comfort….and I do agree that it can make garments look more expensive. If we plan to wear sweater under our coats, going one size up is a must, and while we are at it, why not try two sizes up? Overize chic can be fabulous. YOu look very pretty btw. Great photographs.
