I want to make a quick post about some must-have things that i'm sure will be around a LOT more this year. Quite a few of these clothes were around last year too, but some trends stick around for ages! Ok so here's my current list...
- Statement Blazers
Stripy, bright, fluffy, you name it...I saw a lot more statement balzers at the end of 2012, and i'm sure this trend will be sticking around for quite some time. At the moment I would love to own a bright blue blazer and a black/white striped. Love them!
- Studs on clothes
Everyone's been wearing studs for the past few months, and sometimes they can look great! If you like this kind of style then make sure you don't go too overboard. Studs on the collar are nice and subtle but recently i've seen people wearing cropped bralets COVERED in studd. It's quite scary really, and it makes it impossible to hug anyone if you're wearing one!
- Aztec-style patterns
This style comes and goes quite regularly now, and we saw it throughout a lot of last year but people still haven't got tired of it! I think if you wear it right, it can look great...just try not to clash prints if you don't want your outfit ending up as a disaster. Some people can pull it off, but it's a very risky thing to try so unless you have 100% confidence in your outfit, I wouldn't go for it.
- Dipped-Hem dresses and skirts
If you don't know what i'm talking about, these are the kind of dresses that are short at the front and get longer at the back. Personally I love these as they add a really simple more 'feminine' touch to any outfit. This type of clothing can be worn dressed up or dressed down! That's what is great about them. If you don't own a skirt like this already, I would recommend you go out and buy one while they're still fashionable. If not, wait and get a more vintage patterned skirt like this...it would look really retro ;)
- Vintage Shoes
Personally I love love LOVE vintage shoes! I am so glad they are coming back into fashion because they are cute but so elegant to wear. My current school shoes are a black pair of brogues which are quite vintage, and I am slowly but surely increasing my shoes collection as there are so many more options I like now! (Side note - I have size 3 feet which are really narrow, so if you have quite large or wide feet I wouldn't suggest vintage shoes - some pairs will make your feet look square. BUT brogues can make any sized feet look good so if you have bigger feet but still love vintage like me, I would suggest you get a pair yourself!)
- Disco Pants
So far, I don't own a pair of these yet as they are a bit more expensive then any old pair of trousers, but you can team them up with anything and I think they would be a great casual look at festivals. Anyone know a good place to get some a bit cheaper? I've already spent all my money on beauty products and online shopping so I don't have enough for more clothes!
Thanks for reading! Any other things you think will be coming back into fashion this year? Or anything you would like to come back into fashion? How many of these are in your must have wardrobe already? Let me know in the comments!
