Stripes

There’s something about stripes that I find so chic. If paired just correctly, they can be incredibly elegant.

 Although my iPhone is set on crushing my dreams of warmer weather approaching, I choose to believe that what I physically feel when I step out is more accurate than what my weather app chooses to show me. As I type this out, rays of sunlight are shining in to my flat, ensuring me that I am in fact correct. In other words, Spring is coming (As is Game of Thrones… if you missed the reference). While I shed my layers in the coming months I find myself reaching for prints instead. You can’t really go wrong with stripes after all.

There’s a certain attitude to have about trends.

 We can’t lie when we say that the arrival of fashion month doesn’t bring us all excitement. Whether you’re attending the shows or observing from afar via your technological medium, it’s really the advent of the new. New trends, new clothes, new moods, essentially, if I dare use this word, new vibes. So although we are gearing up to see what Fall/Winter is going to bring us, let’s appreciate what’s coming instead. Even with all the excitement, treading on trends is similar to walking to on hot coal with no shoes, be sure to tread carefully – there is no point attempting to recreate the exact trend/look/vibe (Couldn’t help myself, such a fun word), and loosing your sense of yourself. In case you missed it, tassels and fringe are one of the many trends for S/S 2016…Clearly it’s also one of my favourites. 

So if it’s one of your favourite trends to, be sure to play with it, make it yours, and by all means be inspired!
