Royal style tips

It’s at that stage in the summer when you don’t even need to bother checking the weather app. It’s well-known that heavy heat and humidity awaits when we step out the door, followed by a hit of refreshing AC as soon as we’re back inside.

Hot-to-cold dressing isn’t the simplest formula to achieve but instead of spending time contemplating your wardrobe, why not take a closer look at Her Majesty Queen Rania Al-Abdullah’s style book.

The Jordanian royal always manages to find the perfect outfit for every occasion, so naturally we would turn to her for a few style tricks we can borrow for our ‘back-at-the-office’ edit.

Thanks to Queen Rania, we have a heat resistant work outfit in the bag.

Consider a culottes suit

A less rigid version of a tailored ensemble, do like the royal and go for a neutral shade. Style with a high heels to elongate your frame.

With so many fabulous white dresses on market, how do you choose the one that is office appropriate and stands out from the rest? Look for addition details and consider a button-down shirt version.

Who says you can’t layer in the heat? Queen Rania shows us how it’s done by pairing an asymmetric shirt with a pair of white trousers, which she cinched in at the waist with a tan belt that matches her handbag.

If you don’t work in a corporate environment and not a fan of dresses, then this feminine yet edgy combination is for you. Pairing a logo T-shirt with a pleated skirt looks elegant without feeling like you’re trying too hard.

Walk on a wide side

Forget the skinny fit this summer and focus on beautifully tailored wide-leg silhouettes that never fail to look fabulous. Remember to keep it fitted on the top half for balance and add a heel if you’re petite.

Go for bold

As much as we love to keep it minimalist and neutral, the bright summer days cry out for a burst of colour and a combination of fiery red and vibrant pink is always a hit among the style savvy.
