Five fashion brands I think we should add to our range
by Stephanie Vinzens
Grece Ghanem is 58 years old and has earned her stripes as a fashion influencer. We all have something to learn from her looks.
Grece Ghanem is, for me, one of the best-dressed people alive. She shatters age-discriminatory stereotypes in fashion and thus reinforces my fascination with her style. In an interview with Glamour, the 58-year-old fitness coach, a microbiologist by training, said: "The idea that women should adopt a more conservative look from a certain age and that they can no longer experiment with original cuts and colours is completely outdated."
Grece gives proof of this on her Instagram account. Originally from Lebanon, she now lives in Canada and wears cargo trousers, crop tops and mini-skirts as well as maxi dresses and suits. Her style is part urban, part glam. Sometimes masculine, sometimes feminine. It oscillates between an unusual look and a minimalist style. In doing so, she exudes an unflappable elegance that makes even the looks of the 2000s timeless, and never fails to seduce the crowds. She has around a million followers on Instagram. Grece also spelled out her style credo to Glamour: "As long as you're confident in yourself and your look, any style works for you." We can all take a leaf out of her book. Here are seven of Grece's best outfits to inspire you.
Sheer plays and crop tops can be stylish too. Mesh fabrics, a maxi-length skirt and contrasting hem give this outfit timeless elegance. The gold earrings and kitten heels further underline the elegance of the look.
Orange and chocolate clearly don't just go together gustatively, but chromatically too. This look is a perfect example of how quirky colour combinations can lead to a classic look.
Patterned flare trousers, a colourful faux fur coat and a sequined top: this is an outfit that's sure to attract attention. This look is the concrete manifestation of Grece's motto.
This minimalist everyday look is easy to recreate. Wide-legged grey suit trousers, a white T-shirt and a casual white shirt: most of us already have these three pieces in our wardrobes. Quality accessories will allow you to personalise this simple outfit and turn it into a captivating outfit.
Elegant on top, urban on the bottom: an interesting mix of styles that encourages you to try surprising combinations.
I recently posted about fancy tights, so this look might inspire you too. Pair patterned opaque tights with a long blazer and add the finishing touch with pumps and statement earrings.
Monochrome outfits have that high fashion vibe. The more daring among us dare bright colours, while more subtle minds adopt neutral tones.
Has endless love for shoulder pads, Stratocasters and sashimi, but a limited tolerance for bad impressions of her Eastern Swiss dialect.
