The polka-dot pattern can be chic, punk rock, feminine and flirty or casual, and classic; pretty much any style you can think of. It is a definitive piece in an outfit and in my opinion the pattern doesn't blend in with your look it stands out on its own and draws focus to the wonderful contrast of the pieces that you put together.
From this look I get a sense of 'high society dahlin'. I'm loving this 1960's influences of the polka-dot dress(simila Pim + Larkin dress, similar Jones N.Y. Plus Dot Flare Dress), cardigan(similar here), satchel(similar here), and pumps(similar here).

Wow, breathtaking. These meticulously designed gowns made completely of flowers are just... I am literally speechless. The delicacy and the beauty of the floral arrangements are outstanding and as the bride takes her steady but sure steps towards her love, the air will be filled with the intoxicating aroma of exotic flowers that will leave everyone entranced, not only by her beauty but the dedication to the art and the intricate designs of the most beautiful wedding gown. That's the fairytale image I have in my mind of a bride walking down the aisle in one of these stunning dresses, and I bet it isn't too far from the truth. The hours and concentration and the lovely flowers put into the creation of an iconic moment and design will be worth it in the end. Many creative types have already said their 'I dos' in unconventional dresses, yet no matter what a bride wears on her day she will always be beautiful. She should of course be clothed in the finest and you don't get finer things that those produced by the mother, nature herself.
from my closet: vintage shirt
I wanted to create an edgy, avant-garde look and Margiela is definitely among the top brands that is producing radically new and original clothing. Their aesthetic leans toward... I guess you can say un-conventional designs of basic pieces and this is the idea that I wanted to build this look on. The vintage shirt(similar here) fits perfectly with this design formula. If you look at the top closely you'll notice that the collar is cut lower so it rests on the shoulders of the shirt giving the wearer the appearance of a longer neck. Continuing with the edgy streak, a high ponytail would be the perfect finish for this look.
Here is the first outfit post with this vintage shirt where I paired it with Gianmarco Lorenzi sandals, a matching Tasha rhinestone clutch, and a Harvey Nichols skirt with black and white stripes.
On the left is Patience of JustPatience, her outfit was also a Sunday's school sophisti"cat" feature, you can get the similar look and see the post here. On the right is Gemma of Bake Do and Mend.
I love how this outfit combines vintage and menswear inspired pieces, I guess this look is a good example of classic tomboy? I love the pastel colours, and I would wear everything; shirt, skirt, shoes, and bag. Get the almost identical pieces: colour block button-down shirt(similar here), high-low skirt(similar here), black bag(similar here), saddle shoes(similar here). rouge fox
Classic
This look is not only classic because it is all black, its classic because the pieces are simple and understated. I feel like if I were to look at this photo ten or fifteen years from now the style will be just as on trend then as it is now. Here are a few timeless pieces for your collection: a long black coat(similar here), a black t-shirt(similar here), black ballet flats(similar here), and a black bag(similar here).
One of the most important things you have to remember about noi saf, specifically Urban noi saf style is that it encourages you to be daring with your fashion choices and wearing a blue chambray shirt(similar INC shirt, similar Addition Elle shirt) with a sheer tulle skirt(similar Band Of Outsiders skirt, similar Ralph Lauren skirt) and silver pumps(similar here) isn't anything if not daring.

Vintage
This outfit is perfect to combat the wintry weather that was just passing outside my window. A warm comfy black coat(similar here) and the fur hand muff(similar here) will fight off the cold and the t-strap shoes(similar here) simply defense against the weather is their cuteness, ha-ha.

Casual
The temperatures are warming up! So throw on your casual tank dress(similar here), tied with your braided belt(similar here), put on your comfortable floral detail sandals(similar here) and go for a stroll together.
Glam
This outfit looks like a top-skirt combo that easily pass as a gown(similar Maria Lucia Hohan gown, similar Jucca dress). It's so beautiful and delicate and the frailty of the material and design is captivating isn't it? I can't even imagine another bag(similar Valentino bag, similar Marciano bag) worn with this look and the beige sandals(similar here) are a great finish.
TOMBOY
Have you ever left your house wearing only your pants(similar here), shoes(similar here) and hat(similar here)?! And even more shocking, you dare to complete your outfit with your man's coat(similar here), and shirt(similar here)! If no, you should try it sometime, you'll look just as cool as this noi saf tomboy style.
This idea is similar to the previous one of layering two dresses in one outfit. I love the options that are available with this style. I'm thinking a sheer tulle skirt paired over a pencil skirt like the option on the right would be really cute, or a black leather mini paired over a pink lace skirt similar to the option in the middle would be sexy, or a multi-coloured asymetrical skirt paired with a neutral wrap skirt like the top left option would be high fashion.
from my closet: vintage shirt
I wanted to create a vintage inspired look similar to the style of the 1920's when fashion was in excess and women were dripping in diamonds as they sashayed alongside well dressed and charming men. A top similar to the same material of the skirt could have been used instead of the button down shirt(similar here), but then this outfit wouldn't have the edge that the vintage print adds. A perfect finishing touch would be long fingerwaves hairstyle and 1920's style makeup.
You can check out the first outfit post with this vintage top where I paired it with a dark blue H & M pencil skirt and purple Gianvito Rossi sandals.
On the left is Mara of M Loves M and on the right is Rosa of Love at First Shop. You can get the similar look here: Splendid shirt, Victoria's Secret skirt, Asos skirt, Ray-Ban sunglasses
This past Sunday's school sophisti"cat" included a backpack in her noi saf style and I would say her look was high fashion and avant-garde. My cousin is a fan of this style and she asked me a while back to feature the 'backpack look' so I hope when she scrolls through the selection of bags below she will find a few that she likes. Photos: Vintage Virgin, The Locals,
This Sunday's school sophisti"cat" look has pieces that everyone can wear. From the asymetrical skirt(similar here) to the colour block sandals(similar here), the black backpack(similar here) and printed top(similar here), girls of all ages can look good rocking this look.
Classic
This outfit is perfect for a first lady, a business woman, or a fashion editor. The jacket(similar here), flare skirt(similar here), grey pumps(similar here) and brown quilted bag(similar here) create a look that I'm going to label the 'professional fashionista.'
Urban
Urban noi saf style is about attitude more than anything else and wearing high platform lace up shoes(similar here) with leather shorts(similar here) and a dress(similar here) worn un-buttoned gives off tons of bad girl attitude. This outfit would also work well as an all black biker girl look.
Vintage
The Locals
The top(similar here) and skirt(similar here) from this modern vintage look are versatile enough to be able to be used as separate pieces to create any other style, in fact I've come across this similar colour block combination as a dress(similar here) many times. Overall the accessories; head scarf(similar here) and shoes(similar here), definitely tie this look together really well.
Casual
If you want to be casual while showing off your ostentatious style, this look is right for you. The dress(similar here), sandals(similar here), jacket(similar here), and bag(similar here) are a perfect spring/summer look that you can also wear when fall arrives.
Glam
Ever forget that you have an event you have to attend and since you haven't picked out an outfit you have to scramble at the last minute to find something to wear. So you run to your closet and you know grab a top(similar here) to wear with a pleat skirt(similar here), and a gold belt(similar here) and leopard print bag(similar here) to accessorize, and when you're finished your friends won't even be able to tell that you're wearing a skirt and a top, they'll think you're wearing a gown. This look is a great example of how to create a glam look in three or four steps.
