When you work with a bunch of likeminded people on the daily, you find yourself admiring the buffet of styles hiding behind big-ass computer screens. But no matter how ridic-good someone’s look may be, there’s always room to perk up a look or at least mix it up a lil’.


The below people put their hands up to be grilled by P.TV’s fashion police, with suggestions from CottonOn & Co.‘s ridic extensive range to perk up their style, and may god have mercy on their souls. Things are about to get real passive aggressive up in here.

JOSIE, HEAD OF EDITORIAL

The pretzel sucked but the view was divine ☀

“Show a little more skin – try a midriff cut-off top and maybe add a chain and thug it up.”

“Love the overall look but she could spice things up with a bold red lip, cat-eye sunnies (or the super thin 90’s ones), and mini heels. Think Bella Hadid vibes.”

“I feel like this outfit needs a belt and the hat around the other way, then it’s got a cool 80’s Back To The Future vibe.”

“I reckon something as simple as a maroon lippy could take it from caj to caj-chic.”

JARED, CAREERS WRITER

“Jared’s got the vintage thing down with this but I reckon one of those epic 90’s fluro patterned caps and some round, thin-frame sunnies would make it killer.”

“Replacing the short sleeve tee with a long sleeve one would go a long way.”

“Stay home. Haha.”

“Adding a black or denim jacket would upgrade the look.”

ELISE, DIGITAL MARKETING & PRODUCT EXEC

Palm beach ????

“I feel like this outfit needs to go more formal or more casual, so maybe a red lip and hair up?”

“Swap out the dress for a turtleneck, and perk it up with a red lip and boots.”

“Add a belt to this dress – even belt up the trench to add shape – and a beanie would look super cute too.”

“Elise’s outfit would look perfect with a felt wool hat. You know, one of those floppy ones.”

MEL, SENIOR STYLE EDITOR

Act natural.

The top could be spicier with some off-the-shoulder sleeves and I’d love to see her hair in a bun with the fringe out. A round, woven side bag would be cute, and a silk neck scarf would be the perfect finish.”

“Swap the jeans for some daisy dukes and a straw hat.”

“A chunky belt would give the outfit a little more edge.”

MATT, TECH EDITOR

Just having a bit of froyo outside

A post shared by Matt Hopkins (@mopkins88) on

“Matt should add some colour with some zesty hickies.”

“Matt’s look is sick, but I reckon personalising the denim vest would take it to level 10. Like vintage badges, patches, that kind of thing.”

“Would love the denim vest to be a denim jacket to break up the black in this look.”

“Simple – swap out the Connies for brown boots.”

Constructive criticism: we could all use a lil’.

You know what else we could use, (clearly)? Wardrobe additions. It doesn’t take a lot. $100, for example, could go a really long way in elevating your look. CottonOn & Co.’s first-ever rewards program, CottonOn & Co. Perks is helping on that front. If you spend $100 across any of their seven brands (Cotton OnCotton On KidsCotton On BodyRubiTypoSuprè and Factorie), you’ll get $10 back for looking funky fresh.


You can earn rewards whenever else you shop there too, which, knowing most people, is a lot. This includes: copping a $10 voucher just for joining (here, btw), payday rewards, previews of new launches, exclusive invites and offers, and, of course, pressies on your bday.
