The Joys of Uniform Dressing

With its origins as organizational dress, the uniform, a word in the fashion world that might be synonymous to a modern blah actually means consistent. So what’s all the bad press about it?

Busy women like us are in great need of a put-together look or looks that can help us consistently look good. A look (or a couple of looks) that one can wear without stressing about it and specially reserved for “those” days. For now, let’s call it a uniform.

Uniform dressing is applying an outfit formula to your ensembles. The key is putting together a uniform that will look good on you.

Here are two of my new go-to attires:

Flared and flirty skirts
Tight on the hips and ruffly on the bottom, this style balances the hips. Worn with a simple tee or a sweater or a blazer, the look is convertible to whatever situation you’re in.

I bought my flared, flirty skirts at Zara.

Fun fitness attires
I love wearing workout clothes! Aside from being motivational, wearing them around the house remind me to workout. Inspire yourself – buy nice workout outfits that will give you that extra push you need!

I shop for interesting pieces to keep my workout look more ‘spicy’ than sporty.

Blouson style ClimaLite top – this style is great for those who are still working on their tummy and don’t want to wear a clingy or cropped top to the gym. Adidas developed the ClimaLite fabric and it’s light and conducive for heavy sweating (Ew.)

Sling phone case – This was a gift from CrownedVelvet (Instagram shop). The chain makes it hands-free style!

Tennis skirt – I don’t play tennis but I’ve always liked the outfits! Fila has a lot of cute tennis outfits! I use them for power walking and when doing Kinesis Training in Lifescience. Care bears!
