The Fairfax & Favor Sunset Collection
The Fairfax & Favor S/S collection has been dropping for a number of weeks now, and with 2 new colourways for Spring, as well as a whole host of new arrivals and designs, there has been a lot to get excited about. Alongside Ocean Blue (a beautiful twist on Teal) Sunset Orange launched as the other signature S/S colour, and there is a whole lot to love about this vibrant and bold colour.
Orange as a colour signifies happiness, energy, enthusiasm and excitement, it is also associated with increased levels of optimism and confidence. As such a warm and positive colour, it's no surprise that it's a popular choice, and it is probably easier to style than you think! Orange pairs incredibly well with several other colours, whether you stick to basic neutrals and monochrones, or prefer to add lots of colour into your wardrobe.
I can't wait to share with you how to style a few of my very favourite pieces from the new collection. This includes The Monaco Espadrille Wedge, The Henley Driving Shoe, The Cannes Trainer, The Sennowe Belt, The Tetbury Mini Tote Bag and The Burford Tote Bag.
How to Style the Cannes Trainer
The Cannes Trainer is a brand new, exciting style added into the Trainer collection for S/S 23. Combining the perfect blend of style and comfort, this latest trainer is sure to find a place within your wardrobe. Featuring a white base with 2 tone colour side panel, which incorporates both of the new season colourways - Ocean Blue and Sunset Orange. With all of the subtle, but well loved features, The Cannes are unmistakably Fairfax & Favor.
Styling of this classic twist trainer couldn't be simpler. Whether you're a Summer dress lover, or more of a shorts and oversized tee, The Cannes Trainers are ultra versatile as your new 'go to' comfies!
For a casual look, team The Cannes Trainers with some black leggings, and a quarter zip. This relaxed look is perfect for running errands, or heading out for a walk. I have teamed this look with The Burford Tote Bag - perfect for carrying around everything for a busy day!
Wearing the Cannes Trainer out with friends to brunch or going shopping? Never fear! Pop on your favourite jeans, and a simple stripe 1⁄4 zip for an effortless look. This outfit looks great finished off with the subtle Tetbury Mini Tote, perfect fortaking those everyday essentials with you, and elevating a more casual outfit!
How to style the Henley Driving Shoe
The Henley Driving Shoe certainly needs no introduction! This well loved Fairfax & Favor classic is the most perfect Summer styling piece! The plaited leather lacing is one of my favourite details of the Henley, along with the plated shield logo to the outer back of each shoe - that subtle nod to Fairfax & Favor design. Described as an easy way to style up a casual dress code, The Henley has never ending opportunities in your wardrobe - let me show you!
The Henley Driver works just as well with a pretty dress, as it does with jeans and a large sweatshirt. However you want to style these loafers, you will have endless ways to keep outfits looking fresh, utilising just one piece of footwear!
Ihave styled the Henley with the beautiful new Kitty Trench Coat in outfit 1. This look oozes timeless elegance, with navy jeans and a pheasant print top, with the Sunset Orange accessories adding a welcomed colour pop to a classic neutral look.
Style number 2 opts for a gorgeous scarf to tie in the colours of Sunset Orange with the ever popular A/W colourway, Plum. The Orange and Plum combined add a subtle vibrancy to a classic neutral outfit. This gorgeous look will take you from day to night, whether it's brunch and mimosas, or sunsets at the beer garden!
How to style the Monaco Wedges
The Monaco Wedge is absolutely going to steal the show on Summer evenings. Whether it's dinner in the South of France, or a day at the Polo, this Espadrille wedge has got your Summer styling sorted. The 8cm wedge heel allows for easy wear, whilst the heel height adds length and elegance to any outfit they are paired with!
Whether it be a more casual outfit, teamed with a lightweight cape and white jeans, the Monaco Wedge adds an elegant addition to any outfit. When teamed with jeans, these wedges bring a more casual outfit into a league of its own!
The Monaco Wedge teamed with a simple white dress takes their styling effortlessly from day to night. This easy to recreate look lets the Sunset Orange do all of the talking - and I love how the pop of orange sits against such a classic colour as white.
When combined with the new Kitty Trench Coat, the Monaco Wedges make for the perfect outfit combination for those cooler days or pleasant breezy evenings. Matching accessories through scarves and belts can highlight the vibrancy from the Sunset Orange, without becoming too overpowering.
I have loved styling the Sunset Orange collection, it is a truly beautiful shade that is sure to be a go to for your Summer outfits! Now all you have to do. is just have to pick your favourites! Easier said than done!
Happy styling!
Lots of love, Lucinda xo
