Why Fashion Should Be Fun: Breaking the ‘Style Rules’

Who Made These Rules, Anyway?

For decades, fashion was shaped by an unspoken (and sometimes very spoken) set of rules. Don’t wear white after Labor Day. Never mix patterns. Don’t clash colours. But modern style icons, street stylists, and everyday tastemakers have decided something important: the only real rule in fashion is to have fun.

Style should never feel restrictive. If anything, fashion is about self-expression, creativity, and joy. Whether you’re a maximalist, minimalist, trend-setter or classic dresser, the beauty of dressing today is the freedom to rewrite the rules — or ignore them completely.

Mix Prints Like a Pro (or Like a Rebel)

Once considered a major faux pas, print mixing is now a celebrated form of personal style. Florals with stripes? Leopard with gingham? Yes, please.

The trick isn’t perfection — it’s playfulness. Keep your prints in the same colour family or vary the scale for balance. But if it doesn’t technically “match,” and it still makes you smile? That’s a win.

Our animal print phone cases are the perfect wildcard accessory here — they add flair without overwhelming your look, letting you dip a toe into the wild side without a full-on plunge.

Forget ‘Flattering’ and Focus on Feeling Good

For too long, the word “flattering” has been a subtle code for shrinking, concealing, or reshaping your body to meet arbitrary ideals. But what if the goal isn’t to look smaller or “correct” — what if it’s just to feel confident?

A voluminous tulle skirt with a cropped tee? Gorgeous. Oversized tailoring with chunky trainers? Effortless. Wear what feels right, not what someone once told you was “right for your shape.”

Fashion freedom means choosing clothing that works for your vibe, your mood, and your sense of joy. Not a Pinterest board titled “what not to wear.”

Colour Clashes Are the New Colour Theory

Red and pink? Yes. Orange and purple? Absolutely. Colour clashing is no longer fashion’s faux pas — it’s the new cool. Instead of asking “do these colours go together?” ask “do they make me feel something?”

Pair a pastel suit with a neon bag. Layer unexpected hues. Let your accessories bring the boldness — like a bright yellow phone case against a muted outfit.

Or lean into fashion irony with pieces that clash on purpose. If it makes you pause, or better yet, makes you laugh, it’s probably a fashion moment worth having.

Streetwear With Heels? Yes, Queen.

Who says hoodies are only for downtime and blazers are only for the office? Some of the most memorable street style moments come from combining opposites. Satin dresses with trainers. Tailored suits with crop tops. Denim with heels.

Let your style reflect your moods, not a dress code. On any given day, you can be polished, chaotic, romantic, bold — or all of them at once. Embrace the unexpected.

Your Phone Case Counts as an Accessory

You’re holding it constantly. It’s on café tables, in selfies, and practically glued to your palm — your phone case is part of your daily aesthetic. So why not make it fashion?

The right case can be as expressive as your favourite pair of earrings or that killer pair of boots. A printed case adds contrast to a clean outfit; a textured case adds dimension to your look.

Explore our full collection of stylish phone cases and choose one that speaks your style language. Whether it’s a graphic tiger print, a pastel swirl, or an illustrated dog design, your phone deserves just as much fashion attention as your wardrobe.

The Only Trend Worth Following? Joy

Trends can be fun — they’re a snapshot of what’s happening in culture. But style shouldn’t feel like homework. You don’t need to wear what’s “in” to look great. You just need to wear what feels fun.

One person’s boring is another’s chic. One person’s “too much” is another’s signature. Fashion isn’t one-size-fits-all — and it’s so much more exciting when you stop trying to fit in.

Take inspiration, remix it, twist it, or ignore it completely. That’s where true style lives — in the moments of play, not perfection.

Get Weird. Get Bold. Get You.

You don’t have to justify your style choices. Wear sequins at breakfast. Pair socks with sandals. Buy the bag that makes no sense but brings you joy. Fashion is a creative playground — not a rulebook.

And when in doubt? Add a tiger phone case. (Just because you can.)
