It’s the last, final show of fabulous cheap but chic fashion at FiFi’s style workshop at Westfield
As with the few previous weeks of The FiFi Report these are all backstage shots of the outfits we snapped during the fitting on gorgeous model Angela.
(and again please excuse the bad lighting and some of the fuzzy shots ).
The theme of this show is “Day to evening: one outfit, two ways”
In this workshop I have taken the three most important key pieces in your wardrobe : Jeans and a stripe Tee, a black pencil skirt and white shirt, a little back dress. Then transformed them with a simple change of accessories. You can see see how easy it is to go from day to evening in a flash! The idea is to invest in a few key pieces and then have fun with accessories! Make those key pieces work many ways: We have to get mileage out of our wardrobe!
My mantra when on a budget? Stick to colours that look expensive such as black, grey , brown, camel and cream. You can get dressed with your eyes closed. You will always look chic. You can’t go wrong !
Again let me know which ones are your favorites!
By the way the mad, bad and fab red fur shoes are Louboutin from Vogue.com!

Fifi love all the oufits! I’m busy working mum & always looking for ways to dress up my basics! Thank god longer length skirts are coming back I can’t tell you how annoying it is to keep trying on dresses & finding them all too short … My knees do not like sunlight
love the report! Thx
Fifi, I love the look 3 with the faux fur vest, but worried about bulking out too much. is there a tip about balance?
