How do I get Beach Confidence?

Stylish swimsuit coverups can be our best friends at the beach this summer. Many women feel shy about baring too much in a bathing suit or bikini, but throw on a swimsuit coverup, and it's problem solved!

This sheer coverup has a flattering V-neckline and cap sleeves to show all the bits you want and hide all the rest.

The great thing about beach cover-ups is that there's little difference between sizes because they are mostly all a loose-fitting short dress style. Perfect news for those of you who own light -weight shirts that no longer fit for daily wear with jeans - just throw it on as a cover up!

Have a root around in your wardrobe and look out for the following items that could be used as beach wear, you'll be surprised...

  • Long length shirt
  • Sheer blouse

So have fun on the beach this season with a Savvy confidence that shines!

For You, Mum

Sunday May 13th is the time to set aside especially for that special lady in your life. Mother’s Day is fast approaching and we’re all scrambling madly for ideas of how to show the women who make our lives better just how much we appreciate them. At Savvy Style, we believe the best way to show you care is by bringing things back to basics. If you think about the things your Mum/auntie/Grandma has taught you over the years, it actually becomes quite easy to think of ways to return the favour. Just take a look…

Remind Her: She's Fabulous at Every Age

If ever there was a woman who made you feel good no matter what your age or what you were going through at certain times in your life, it’s your mum. So gift number one is simply: tell her how beautiful she looks!

For a Mum Who Sparkles

Dressing up in your mum’s jewels is an old favourite. Now you can replace all that lost/broken treasury of hers! This is not your average beaded necklace, but then again, it’s not for your average mum. She will love this stunning sparkling piece from Samantha House, or other stand-out pieces like this encrusted rings from Tayma Fine Jewellery.

Not Your Daughter’s Jeans

Mum’s know that keeping it simple is always best. That’s why we love denim line Not Your Daughter's Jeans who have taken the concept of the ‘mum jean’ and made it savvy. These are chic, slim, and unbelievably flattering. This gift goes hand-in-hand with gift number one, too; she really will look fabulous wearing these! 
NYDJ
Wonder Woman!

These stunning silver cuffs are an instant classic she can wear with everything. Now she can look like the superhero she is!
Michael Kors
Hermes
Rainbow Clutch

Bring colour to her life, like she does for you. These Prada clutches do it all. They make a statement, accessorize with everything, and give a fantastic colour pop. Whether she's dressed in her occasional best or relaxing in weekend denim, one in her favourite colour will make her outfit.

Savvy Style

No matter how wise, she is never too old to learn some new tricks. Bring the season’s best styles to her in a way she can use them for her own shape and tastes. We have it all at our studio, Savvy Style HK. Just give us a call to find out how we can give her the gift of style! (2522 2592).
 
Box It

Chances are, she has collected quite the array of jewellery and trinkets over the years (mainly from you) and will need somewhere to store and care for them. The best way to organize your jewellery (or your wardrobe for that matter) is to have a place to store everything that gives it space, protection and an appropriate stage to showcase itself to you when you’re trying to choose what to wear of a morning. We make all our best decisions in a well organized environment and it’s the same for style! This Ralph Lauren box should do trick and it makes a beautiful gift in itself.

We hope you’ve found some inspiring tips to treat your mum this May.
Have fun with your mum and stay Savvy!
