Here at Onyx Poppy Boutique, we love to keep you updated on the latest in women's fashion, which is why we want to break down the increasingly changing expectations of women's formalwear.
It's gradually transitioning into more casual looks, so we're going to highlight some key pieces of clothing that will shake up and modernise your wardrobe.
Today, formalwear for women is modernising and is more about striking the perfect balance between comfort and style, with clothing like jumpsuits, pantsuits,
blazers and
trousers becoming increasingly popular alternatives to traditional looks.
Perfect for more coverage and for added comfort and confidence, wearing pants is a simple way to make formalwear more casual.
Pants are a must-have because they can be styled in so many ways, including pairing them with a blouse or blazer.
You can also wear them with a strappy sandal, a classy heel or even a nice pair of leather boots.
With so many choices available, finding a beautiful top that matches or adds an edge to your outfit is key to achieving a powerful formalwear look.
Long-sleeve, short-sleeve, mesh or cotton tops are the new staple pieces in women's formalwear. Blouses are brilliant for dressing up an outfit, as they work with all styles of pants and skirts.
Finding a top that you feel comfortable and confident in is the new trend in women's formalwear, so pairing a cotton top with a blazer gives you two looks in one.
The great thing about tops is that there are so many styles, materials and patterns available, so you won't find it hard to add some staple items to your wardrobe. We have a large collection of tops that you can choose from and pair with other pieces of formalwear.
Long or mid-length, flowy or fitted, skirts are great formalwear pieces as they never go out of fashion.
Easy to pair with a blouse or t-shirt, a skirt is a great way to tone down the formality while maintaining the glamorous element that comes with wearing a dress.
We have an extensive selection of patterns, fabrics and styles of skirts for you to choose from on our website.
