Shoe Swap: 'Style Boards'

You better work! Tonight Jade and Dave talk about fashion and where they wanna take themselves stylistically in the future. Together the Diff'rent Strokes duo has come up with 'Style Boards' - showcasing their favourite bits of fashion and hairstyle.



Jade examines Dave's board to find meggings (men's leggings), designer sneakers and La Roux hair! Meanwhile, Dave indulges in Jade's penchant for quirky, geeky tops and comfortable hoodies.

This Shoe Swap will explore how different people identify with fashion and discuss how 'fashion-conscious' we really are.

"Most people have a personal style. Whether you think you're Galliano's long-lost muse or the kind that is unphased with fashion. You've got style. The choices you make from your hairstyles to the clothes you buy are all influenced by the culture and media surrounding you. Together, they help you construct your image," said Dave.

Shoe Swap: Jade's 'Style Board'

Let's take a peek into Jade's wardrobe and check out her fashion wish list!

The workaholic, Diff'rent Strokes diva describes her style as, "looking like I didn't try but I really thought about it."

TOP:

Plain hoodie
Something that's warm and easy to match with jeans is a priority. Nothing too 'brand heavy'.



T-Shirts With A Geek Factor
I own this one and it's my favourite at the moment. I tend to look out for indie band T-shirts or ones with some nerdy saying or pop culture reference.

BOTTOM:


Straight cut jeans
I prefer dark coloured jeans, usually in a straigh leg cut. A definite 'no' to skinny legged jeans.

DRESSY:


Light knit jumper
This is my pick if I'm going for something a bit nicer (for smart formal dress codes). I like it cause it can be worn with either a T-shirt or button up shirt underneath.

SHOES:


Vans Shoes
Any kind of shoes with a bit of personality. It has to be comfortable and come in a variety of interesting bright colours. When it comes to pattern and style, nothing too over the top - I prefer subtle hints of creativity.

HAIR:


Goku Spikes
People at work always say my hairstyle is like Dragonball Z, which is kind of true. I like razored, short spiky hairstyles with a little unruly look to it.
