So, just one week left before I fly out, by tomorrow onwards, you all will probably start hearing about the few clothes that I am carrying with me, most I am going to give away. The weather in Toronto is still full of chills so probably will carry most of my woolens but I am still not sure what to do with the loads and loads of shoes I don’t want to part with. Well, as I continue to contemplate my luggage issues, I also on the side am looking at what’s in trend and what in my budget to get me the new wardrobe. Here are a few things I am currently crazy about from SS2012 ‘in trend list’…
One can never go wrong with the one trend hitting every aspect of fashion, from high end to budget buys, shoes to handbags and more, the COLOR BLOCK look. Totally loving the lemony yellow green in the Proenza Shouler handbag, just saw Dakota Fenning sporting one of these on the web the other day. Also, while talking of handbags, remember, the FRONT FLAP look is very much in trend this year, need to have one of those in my wardrobe (at all costs ;-)). Oh! And did you also reminisce about the Christian Laubotin spiked heel, looking at the beautiful number in tan and blue? Love the lime green heels!
Another thing everybody wants in their wardrobe this year is a well structured SKIRT. It can be pleated- knife pleats are BIG this season, or it can be a full flare knee length or maxi. Also variations of pencil and tulip skirts seem to be floating around everywhere. Make it an all over floral printed number for the best look this season (saw some really cool ones at Zara and Abercrombie, you can also check out FCUK and Scotch and Soda for shirts)….
P.S. This is an old post, that was lying in my drafts for over 3 weeks, just thought of publishing it anyway.. The writing isn't complete yet, but will finish it soon. Meanwhile, check out my favorite trends this season and have a lovely weekend fashionistas. Much luv and bliss. xx
