Style with ikku #4 - Fight the Monday Blues

We are back with Style with ikku!

During the last few weeks the lockdown rules have been relaxed and so many of us have to face the morning commute again, therefore this week we are going to focus on how to fight the Monday blues. We have selected ikku’s Paraiba Flower Pendant and the Blue Topaz Chain Ring to “blueten up” your day! The stunning Paraiba colour pendant is certainly a unique and eye catching colour that anyone and everyone's eyes will be drawn to.

Whether you are going back to work in your workplace or continue zooming from home, you need a decent top and we have chosen Zimmermann’s 100% silk lace inserts cami top and turquoise blue Bianca blazer from The Attico. You might think this weather is too hot for a blazer but this particular blazer is 92% cotton which is perfect for weather these days! You can then pick out any pair of jeans in your wardrobe to finish the look as we know everyone has their favourite go to pair. To accessorize, we have picked Dior eyewear’s DiorClub1 acetate visor for extra sun protection and Rejina Ryo’s 90s inspired minimalist warm-weather edit Romy leather sandals which can easily transform your look from day to night.

Lastly, many cafes and restaurants are reopening again which is one of the greatest pieces of news we have heard all year other than the fact that most clothing brands are having a 50% sale on at the moment. Whilst practicing social distancing and personal hygiene we also have to be mindful and environmentally friendly.

Did you know in the UK there are approximately 7 million paper coffee cups used every day, which equates to 2.5 billion every year?

Due to the pandemic, the use of surgical facemasks has increased dramatically which is something we cannot control but by doing little things each day like using your own coffee cup you are helping to save our planet! One of our favourite reusable coffee cups is the Keep Cup, they are available in a wide range of colours and materials, you can also create your own very personal design.

ECO is the new sexy!

Until next week, be ikku.
