Trend-Plate: Let Your Style Speak!

Mary Kantranzou FW2013-14

Alexander McQueen FW2013-14

There are so many factors that could spark a conversation, not just among us but also with strangers. 

A strayed neighbour’s puppy stuck in the drain could be an easy conversation starter, ditto political global situations and the unpredictable economic crisis. 

Nevertheless, looks aside, fashion is a good way to engage great conversations, especially when the looks stand out from the rest of the crowd. 

This season, conversation-starting pieces are fashion’s ultimate de rigueur and worth investing in. Throw in the right accessories, rest assured you could be the new talk of the city!
