    Nothing completes an outfit like a few accessories! Adding sunglasses, jewellery or a bag really finishes your outfit making it a show stopper for passers-by.

    It’s all in the details!! Push up the collar to show off the lining, roll up the trousers to show off the shoes, turn back the cuffs to show the contrast.   Hope you enjoyed and have taken away a few ideas!   Entice, Inspire, Impact   VS Team X #loveyourwindows Visual Sense was set up in 2010 by Rowena Doyle.
