Winter Outfit Post: Style With Accessories

Baby, it's cold outside! And it'll only get worse from here on.

The one good thing about winter, probably the only one, is that we get to style our outfits in the most chic, sophisticated and gracious manner. There are so many accessories to play around with that, as a woman, you'd never run out of options on a cold winter morning.

There are ways to give your look a serious upgrade, however, and that's by investing in more than just the basics for the chilly weather. You need to look beyond the denims, plain white and black tees, overcoat and boots. There's so much more you can add to the winter look and make it a standout outfit amidst the sea of umbrellas and black uniforms on the streets on London.

Be it snow, rain, ice or a shimmer of sunshine, you need these added essentials in your wardrobe for the coming months of Winter in 2014.

1. Scarves: A girl can never have enough scarves in her wardrobe - be it for spring or snow. Throw it around your neck or tie it on your handbag for an added glam factor. The trick to wearing scarves in winter is always wrap it around your neck after you've worn your jacket or overcoat.
   
2. Earmuffs: You don't necessarily have to look like an Asian schoolgirl to master this look. These fluffy cuties can be a lifesaver in the windy, chilly season. Get one with a neutral tone, so it goes with all your outfits and when you're indoors, tuck it inside your handbag.
   
3. Hats: Another lifesaver when it comes to the ears and head, hats in winter can be very versatile. From ghetto baseball caps to fedoras to a beanie - there's an entire range to look into if your head needs some protection. Not feel like hatting it this cold season? Wrap a scarf around your head and go for a chic red riding hood look!
   
4. Gloves: We know that these will hamper all the phone time you may be used to - especially when your phone is looking all cozy in that Iconemesis case - but you cannot play with snow without gloves, right? We're big fans of the leather-look ones at Iconemesis HQ, but if comfort is your thing, then invest in some woollen ones and they will do the job well enough.
   

Here are our favourite street style picks from Couture Week in Paris in 2013. After all, who does fashion better than Parisian women?

Update 06-04-2013 - iPhone 5 Cases

We have received a positive response from our manufacturers regarding the last batch of cases and have spent the last few weeks resolving the issues surrounding the material.

With the information we have from the most recent and the original batch of cases(produced using Sorona) we believe we may have found a solution to the problems we’ve been having.

Last week we ordered a bag of the material, and we’re now expecting to receive some cases by the 19th of this month. 

Fingers crossed all goes well and we can finally have our iPhone 5 cases in store.

Update - iPhone 5 case

A few weeks ago we received more sample iPhone 5 cases but we’re still having problems with them.

The latest problem is a post-production one which stems from our printing process.

Normally, we print our cases using a 3D sublimation process which transfers the inks onto the cases at a very high temperature. During this process the cases shrink slightly causing them not to fit the iPhone 5 afterwards.

To fix this problem we are trialling cases of different sizes. Work started on these cases last week Thursday and we’re expecting them to be shipped on Wednesday. 

Fingers crossed we find a batch that fits the iPhone 5 after printing.

Project Update on Bags

Over the past week, we have been in contact with and visited factories to develop our bag range.

Unfortunately, none of the factories are able to support us for various reasons.

When we began this project we thought it would be a challenge and so far this has proven to be the case.

We are hopeful of finding a factory and on Monday we will continue our search.

Fingers crossed...

Update - iPhone 5 case

You may already know that we are experiencing a delay to our iPhone 5 cases.

Inorder to progress, we decided to change our material choice for producing these cases.

The new material is the PBT which we have used for our iPhone 3G/3GS, 4 and 4S cases. One of the reason we chose the Sorona in favour of the PBT is that the Sorona performs better with our printing process and is of superior quality.

 Presently, work is progressing on the new cases and we are now expecting to get some samples early next week.

Fingers crossed the problems that have caused the delay will have been resolved and we can finally have cases in stock before the end of the month.

Which Style - Bags

You may already know that we’re developing a range of handbags.

Lately, we have been looking for a manufacturer to make these bags and have since realised that we may only be able to develop only one due to costs and our budget.

So we are thinking of developing one of the styles and then the others. 

The big question is: which style to make? Help us choose, please!

Cross-body, Tote or Bowling Bag?
