July 17th marks World Emoji Day to celebrate these ‘picture words’ – a rough translation of ‘emoji’ in Japanese. Emojis were created in Japan by Shigetaka Kurita in 1990 and are now used every day in conversations across the globe. These symbolic icons are used to describe everything from emotions, moods, transportation, animals, food and many more – giving emojis the ability to speak for themselves without the need for elaborate words. So if you love your emojis and they’re a big part of your texting habit, here’s a way for you to have some fun on World Emoji Day and try out some quirky prints from Smiley World…
For women
If you like wearing crop tops, the Dusty Pink cropped sweatshirt from Smiley World is a good place to start this World Emoji Day. The long sleeves and round neckline make this sweatshirt a comfortable addition to your casual wardrobe while the cropped design adds a flirty touch. Pair it with White denims and sneakers – a backpack will complete this outfit perfectly. Slip into a comfy t-shirt with a bold emoji print with the typographic “You are totally unique” splashed across the front. The Rust Orange colour makes it easy to pair with Black denims and lace-up shoes.
Add some quirkiness to your dresses too with the pinafore dress from the brand. The White half-sleeved t-shirt covered in tiny emojis is topped with a Dark Red textured pinafore with cami straps and a button-down front. Similar to the pinafore dress is the Navy Blue denim dungarees that is a playful casual look. The frayed hemlines add to its casual appeal. Wear a White t-shirt underneath and finish it off with sneakers.
For men
Vibrant graphic printed t-shirts are a simple yet fun way to enjoy this day. Try out the pastel trend for men with this Light Pink regular fit crew neck t-shirt with a peppy smiley face on the front with a typographic print – pair it with White denims or chinos. Upgrade a basic White t-shirt with Smiley World’s crew neck t-shirt with a Yellow smiley face on the front. Add it to your athleisure look by matching it with Olive Green joggers and a Green jacket.
If you love your denims, the Light Blue t-shirt with the smiley face print and the motivating typographic “Choose happiness” is the right complement to Blue distressed denim shorts. And for that monochrome look? The White and Blue tie-dye t-shirt paired with Dark Blue Denims will ace this trend.
For the kids
