Q:What are different ways to wear a scarf?

It really depends on what scarf you’re wearing; you have different types of scarves, some like the Sorbet Scarf are narrower, the Sia Yellow Paint Splash Merino Scarf is longer, and then you have knit scarves like the Silver Lurex Cross Scarf.

Our stylist Dan usually keeps it simple and wears her scarf open; that way it’s adding length and making her look taller through the torso. You could also wear it shorter to one side and longer on the other and wrap it around your neck, loosening it up a bit around the neck to show off the two tones. If it’s really cold, wrap it around tightly and add a beanie. Then add a flat shoe, a trainer or a black book - with the Cynthia Rose Marle Longline Cardigan, it’s a great casual look.

Q:What are some flattering cardigan options?

A longline cardigan is great as it gives you length whereas if you’re wearing a shorter chunky knit it can cut you off; it really depends on your body type. As a general rule, avoid anything that hits or stops at the widest part of your body - that applies to cardigans too, as it will accentuate that area.

But do embrace your curves no matter your size or your age, if you’re feeling great and confident it will show. Our stylist Dan is a curvy size 8 and loves longline cardigans as they are flattering for her body shape and make her look taller.

Dan showcased the Colorado Beige Cape - she loves it because it feels dressier than a simple cardigan. You could wear it with a black pair of trousers and a dressy top, the perfect evening outfit. You could even layer with a scarf for more warmth.

Q: How would you pair a maxi length cardigan with a maxi dress?

You could pair the Penny Mustard Merino Longline Cardigan with the Tula Orange Leopard Scarf and the Black Bamboo Batwing Maxi Dress - you could even wear a closed-in shoe with it such as the Derby Black Spot Leather Lace Shoe or an ankle boot such as the Rumer Black Leather Chelsea Boot, or wear tights and boots underneath to add some warmth.

It’s the perfect option if you’re looking for something that’s more fluid, that has movement and that’s not as structured.  

If you’re not into longline cardigans, the Teal Abstract Valetta Reversible Jacket is a great alternative - it’s basically two jackets in one. It has a vintage feel to it, which we love! You can roll up the sleeves as the prints work well together.

Q: What maxi skirts are good for winter?

We all love a long tube skirt! The Red Bamboo Maxi Frill Skirt looks amazing with our mustard cardigan and a leopard print scarf. The Navy Bamboo Maxi Tube Skirt is a staple in any wardrobe. For something a bit different, we have the Buderim Blue Denim Maxi Skirt; it has pockets and an elastic at the back - it looks flat through the front but it gives you some movement through the back. This one looks great with the Jones White Bamboo Long Sleeve Tee.

*Update: the Buderim Blue Denim Maxi Skirt is now sold out - we have included an alternative, the Sunray Blue Leopard Pleated Skirt which would look amazing paired with the Jones Black Bamboo Long Sleeve Tee. 

Q: Do you have nice long dresses that will go with leggings?

Any dress that you have at home can be layered with long sleeve tops and leggings underneath. We usually style the Navy Peak Sleeved Maxi Dress with a pair of black bamboo leggings - but pretty much everything can be layered underneath a dress.

Q: Do you have any jeans for ladies with bigger thighs?

We love our Reed - it comes up to a mid-rise and it has an elastic waistband which is a great feature as some women that are hourglasses or pears and have a more curvaceous thigh sometimes tend to have a narrower waist.

Important to keep in mind: if you have a curvy thigh area, you don't want too much balancing out at the bottom half of your body. Back in the day they used to recommend bootleg pants or jeans, which actually accentuated our thighs; straight leg pants like the Reed will camouflage that part of your body. Pants that are a bit thicker are always a good idea because they hold you in.
