3. Denim 

Denim can be worn year round but it’s especially popular in the fall season. Denim is seen in clothing, shoes, & accessories.

Gianni Versace said it best when he said “Don’t be into trends. Don’t make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress & the way you live”.
~It’s so much more fun to be yourself and get creative with fashion. You really get to express yourself through how you dress. I decided to pair these Bright combat boots with this camouflage dress because I love the way that the colors contrast in a fun way. The black bomber jacket is the solid piece that joins the whole look together & keeps it from being too busy.

Reflection on Summer 2018’s Trends

Summer fashion was filled with fun colors and fun prints. So as summer comes to an end, let’s take a look at a few of this summers trends.

1.Fanny packs, Belt bags

Fanny packs surfaced in the 1980’s/1990’s. In the 2000’s they weren’t popular anymore. Decades later, they are back in style and have different functions. They have belt bags now, which is a fanny pack used as a belt while also holding your things. Fanny packs are even worn in different ways now. They can be worn around your waist and are now even worn across your chest. It used to be worn mainly by women. But now, men even wear them across their chest.

Belt Bag: Freepeople.com

 

2. Bamboo/Straw bags

This is one of my favorite summer trends. I am in love with bamboo or straw bags. A lot of fashion bloggers were seen wearing these bags. These bags have such a fun, natural essence to them.

Bag Details:

Bamboo Bag 1: Amazon.com

Bamboo Bag 2: Poshmark.com

Straw Bag: Urbanoutfitters.com

 

3. Bike Shorts

I’ve heard that Bike shorts are known as the new replacement for leggings. Who knew that shorts made for the purpose of exercising, and riding a bike could be a trend? These comfortable shorts are generally made of spandex. We all know that nothing is better than being fashionable and feeling comfortable at the same time. So I see why these shorts were and are so popular. They come in many colors and are often seen worn with Graphic Tee’s or Crop tops.

Shorts Details:

Gold shorts: GoJane.com

Red Shorts: Forever21.com

Emerald Green shorts: Prettylittlething.us

 

4. Gingham prints

Nothing says summer time like Gingham prints. This fun print reminds me of a picnic table cloth. This print is seen a lot on dresses, and tops.

5. Matching Sets

Matching sets were popular during the spring season and continued to be popular all through this summer. It’s safe to say that this trend is here to stay.

Grunge Inspired

(I even have a few Pinterest boards dedicated to it lol.) But one thing that I love about fashion is how versatile you can be with it. What you wear can be determined by so many things. What you wear can be a reflection of your emotions or mood. It can also be based on what look you wanna go for; You may want to go for a bohemian look today, and go for a gothic look the next day.

Summer is actually my favorite season, but I love Fall because of the colors, prints, and materials of fall clothing. You get to bring out your browns, mustards, greens, orange,burgundy’s,Camo prints, animal prints, and plaid prints. You also get to pull out your suedes, velvets, leather, and snakeskin. Plus it’s an added bonus that you get to bring boots back out!

One thing that I love about flannels is how versatile you can be when it comes to styling them. You can wear it as a shirt and button it up/button it down, you can layer it with other shirts, wear it under a vest, and you can tie it around your waist.

They’re so comfortable & they have such an effortless, casual look. I also love when they fit loose so S/o to my bf for letting me have his lol
