Scandi style: 5 pieces to ace the look
Clean and chill, yet super chic, Scandinavian (Scandi for short) style is all the rage. And this no longer only applies to interior design: Scandi girls have been dominating the fashion scene for a while now.
Scandi influencers and fashion labels just know how to create the perfect balance between minimalism and personality, and that’s probably why we’re so inspired by them.
Have you been wondering how to achieve the perfect Scandi vibe? Look no further! Here are the five pieces that every Scandi girl has in her wardrobe.
1. An oversized pantsuit
Two-pieces suits are a must in every respectable Scandi wardrobe!
Casual, oversized silhouettes are favoured, and so are monochromatic outfits. For an extra casual fit, we suggest looking in the men’s department!
As for materials, you can’t go wrong with a linen suit for summer and a wool one for winter.

Leather trousers are a must for winter, and Scandi girls love them!
Pair your leather pants with a basic top, such as a cashmere jumper, a white shirt, or a blazer; then top off your outfit with a pair of sneakers for a sporty and edgy look.
And remember: the baggier, the better!
