Current Fashion Trends
Now let’s set the fashion basics aside and talk about the current fashion trends that create the (sometimes crazy) excitement every season. Although the Wardrobe Essentials are important and make up the back-bone and practicality of your style – we both all know that it is the latest fashion trends that keep your style and wardrobe fresh – injecting glamour, wit and spunk, the extra oomph – making you feel more alive!
What I love about this new era of fashion is that the biggest fashion houses are presenting a variety of key looks – there is something for everyone. Of course, there are some trends that are more popular than others in any given season, but they’re not a must.
For example, bright and warm colors tend to be big on the Spring/Summer catwalk, but there is always another fashion designer that goes the opposite way by displaying their collection in soft, pastel colors. This makes it so that the cool and fair skinned woman can wear her best colors no matter what the latest fashion trends are telling you what’s “hot”!
Pruning Through the Trends - the Chic Way
Some of the best places to get a look of the upcoming and current fashion trends is to go to style.com or buy a special trends issue of any fashion magazine (Marie Claire is one of my favorites) which is usually out in late July or early August.
