4 New Wardrobe Essentials (And The Beauty To Wear With Them)

LOOK 1: THE SCALLOPED SHIRT

After seasons of crisp shirting being in the spotlight, this is a softer departure whilst still maintaining a sense of office.

THE MAKEUP

On the makeup she created for Sig, Jess Diez explained: “I decided to go with a soft, glam look, akin to makeup styles from the 1970s. I feel in general that we are moving away from the ’no makeup’ look, with clients expecting a natural healthy glow, but with makeup that can be seen,” shares Jess. “Because I wanted the skin to glow, I applied foundation only where it was absolutely necessary, blending it out with a stippling brush to achieve a dewy, fresh finish.” Want to recreate? These are the exact products she used…

The trick to this look? “Tipping the head backwards, then applying a mist of hairspray as you ruffle the style with your hands”. The result? “Volume and instant sex bomb,” she shares.

LOOK 4: THE PRINT DRESS

Opt for a bold dress and your outfit is pretty much sorted. Pair with a simple clutch and killer earrings, and you’re ready to hit the dance floor.
