Priscilla Ojo had a different idea when she stepped out to introduce her latest venture, PalmPriy. The content creator, entrepreneur and style tastemaker chose a rich chocolate brown two-piece, but this was no ordinary office suit. With bronze and amber beaded fringe running across the jacket, her look brought personality to corporate dressing.
The suit makes a strong case for giving brown tailoring a place in your wardrobe. Its single-breasted blazer features sharp shoulders and a defined waist, while the floor-length wide-leg trousers give the outfit a relaxed, fluid finish.
Then come the embellishments: heavy bronze and amber beads tracing the lapels, hemline and cuffs. They add movement and texture to the jacket, making it the piece that draws the eye without overwhelming the overall look.
Ojo got the proportions right with her footwear. She paired the wide-leg trousers with pointed-toe camel pumps, allowing just a glimpse of the shoes beneath the long hems. The rest of her accessories stayed simple, with subtle drop earrings and delicate rings leaving the embellished suit plenty of room to speak for itself.
Her beauty look followed the warm colour palette. She wore her hair in long, cascading waves with copper highlights, parted down the middle, and completed the look with bronze-toned soft glam and a glossy nude lip.
For anyone looking to take tailoring beyond the familiar black or grey suit, Ojo’s PalmPriy launch outfit offers a lovely starting point. Chocolate brown, wide-leg trousers and a little embellishment make for a combination worth considering, whether you are dressing for a business event or looking to give your workwear a new direction.
