DJ Zinhle is one of the most fashionable South African stars currently. The DJ and serial entrepreneur have staples in her wardrobe that she falls back on when she needs to pull a look together.
Here are 5 must-have winter closet staples inspired by DJ Zinhle:
-
Turtle necks
Keep the chill at bay with a cosy turtle neck that can be paired up or down with just about anything. For a casual look, turtle necks with jeans and a pair of boots are all that’s needed for winter chic. Team with a pencil skirt or high-waisted pants for the office. Having a few doesn’t hurt, but if you’re looking to lean out your wardrobe and stretch your Rands, then a black or nude will do.
2. Boyfriend blazer
The boyfriend blazer is a versatile winter closet staple for its classic and clean look. Blazers usually come with just one button and whilst it’s called the boyfriend blazer for its oversized design, it can actually be really flattering for most body types. You don’t need much with the blazer and you can get away with a simple tank top underneath and skinny jeans.
3. Collared shirt
A fitted collared shirt is a classic must-have and it can be worn throughout the year not just reserved for winter. There are many styles to choose from traditional office wear to longer collared “shirt dresses” which can both be styled with a good pair of pants.
4. Knitwear
Whether it’s a woollen dress or a two-piece tracksuit, knitwear is all the rage this season for both the comfort factor and because it just looks flawless. This DJ Zinhle inspired look will look good with a pair of sneakers and you’re all set or you can get out your heels and put your best foot forward as you turn heads.
5. Stiletto boots
Stiletto boots are a winter must-have because they have become popular over the years for their style and elegance. DJ Zinhle’s pair of snake print thigh-high boots are sizzling hot and eye-catching. Opt for a bold colour or printed pair of boots to elevate your style this season.
