Welcome back to the Style File series!
Today we’re breaking down this simple but chic, low-key outfit spotted on Victoria’s Secret model and busy mom Miranda Kerr when she was in Australia a few weeks ago.
What I like most about this look is the high-low combination. The striped dress is stylish but casual and comfortable. The classic black blazer is well-tailored and adds a bit of structure to the look. And the red bag is an eye-catching splash of color that completes the look and gives it a personal touch.
See below for some affordable shopping suggestions for these pieces:
Striped Dress
Depending on your mood you could rock a casual black and white striped mini like Miss Miranda Kerr, go for nautical-inspired navy & white stripes, or even pair a striped maxi dress with the rest of these pieces for a fun twist on this style.
Black Blazer
Boyfriend Blazer w/ Striped Cuff – Asos
Cuffed Blazer – Victoria’s Secret
A simple cropped or fitted blazer, an oversized or exaggerated boyfriend blazer, or even a casual rolled sleeve blazer would all work well in this outfit. You can follow Miranda’s lead and go for a classic black or navy blazer, but I think that a neutral tan or grey would look lovely as well.
Black Shoes
ADELAIDE Leather Chelsea Ankle Boots – Asos
You can give your look a sassy twist with a pair of flat ankle boots or lace-up heeled Oxfords, or you could even try a simple pair of black velvet ballet flats depending on your personal style and – Of course – How far you’re planning on walking.
Red Handbag
Longchamp ‘Le Pliage’ Medium Shoulder Tote – Nordstrom
Contrast Colored Quilted Handbag – Oasap
Kate Spade New York Tote – Piperlime
A bold well-made red handbag is a great piece to invest in – Look for a classic style that you’ll be able to carry season-after-season. This is a statement piece that will add the perfect finishing touch to any look.
I’m a huge fan of Longchamp’s Le Pliage totes which are really versatile and perfect for traveling. I also really like this simple Kate Spade tote which is fun and feminine, and the lovely quilted number from OASAP – There’s really something for everyone in this eye-catching hue!
