By avi maxwel / in , , , , , , , , , , , , , /

Zara Tindall has firmly established herself as a style icon within the royal sphere – and her fashion sense is still flourishing as she celebrates another birthday. 

Over the past year, the royal has displayed a series of flawless ensembles, featuring impeccably tailored coats, chic trouser suits and glamorous dresses.

Gone are the previously cluttered details and hastily assembled outfits, replaced instead by a meticulously curated wardrobe.

On her 43rd birthday, we take a retrospective look at Zara’s most impressive outfits to date.

Penchant for colour

Zara’s penchant for colour has been particularly evident of late

Zara’s penchant for colour was particularly evident when she attended the Easter Mattins service at Windsor Castle last year.

The royal picked a bright fuchsia dress by Jane Atelier, accessorised with a coveted Strathberry bag, Juliette Botterill hat and Emmy London heels.

Her ‘Payton’ dress, with its figure-skimming silhouette and decorative buttons, was the perfect choice for the joyous occasion.

Moreover, the audacious hue accentuated her radiant complexion.

The following month, Zara showcased her sartorial prowess at the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla.

She selected a charming pastel blue ensemble, featuring a custom-made coat dress by Laura Green.

From JPMorgan to Street Style Icon

By avi maxwel / in , , , /

“It’s very eclectic,” Candace Marie, a social-media consultant and creator, says about her style. And while she might also describe it as “structured,” she admits that there’s also a sense of drama and sometimes, it verges on gaudy. So it makes perfect sense that Marie is a Fashion Week fixture. In a sea full of monotone looks, Marie stands out with a colorful and playful sense of style with looks like an oversize blazer from Acne Studios paired with a rosette choker; a cropped denim Mugler jacket coupled with short shorts and a tiny Coperni bag; or a rainbow, multicolored gown from Collina Strada and a bright-orange Valentino purse. She has a knack for sourcing clothing from across the spectrum, peppering her closet with high-end Schiaparelli, Chanel, and Givenchy pieces, garments from buzzy labels like the Attico and independent ones like So’ Fatoo, and even items from affordable brands like Charles & Keith. She also shops on Etsy and leans on a group Instagram chat with her friends to share new designers.

“I feel like the more I’ve grown, even just as a person in the industry, I’ve been able to make it a little bit more of my own

Who doesn’t love a jumpsuit? An entire outfit built into one, it’s a lazy girl’s dream and a fashion-lover’s favourite dressing hack. Once you’ve got the right one, all you have to think about are accessories, boots and a jacket. In a world of ever-fleeting trends, jumpsuits for women possess a sartorial simplicity that never goes out of style.

What to look for in the best jumpsuit for women

When selecting the right jumpsuit, consider its versatility, says Toronto-based stylist Tania Tonello. For instance, sleeveless options are best for layering. “A body-hugging turtleneck layered under a jumpsuit transitions it from spring to winter,” she explains. “A T-shirt or long-sleeve makes it more casual.”

Another element to take into account is the length of women’s jumpsuits. “If it’s too short, it will be uncomfortable and unflattering. If it’s too long, it can also be unflattering, creating a distorted crotch length,” says Tonello.

For optimal comfort and outfit possibilities, opt for a design with a stretchy waistband. “You can add your
