It’s Summer in the northern hemisphere and the trends are in full swing. Snack, fast, or feast from the buffet of trends and do your own thing. Milk the ones you love, dabble in the ones you like, and leave the rest. All items and looks have longevity when you wear them with confidence, intention, verve and sass.
Onto some outfit inspiration:
1. Jorts and Jacket
Jorts — a jeans and shorts hybrid — are having a fashion moment, and here’s a way to dress them up a bit. A pair of light wash jorts is combined with a tucked white tee. A brightly patterned and fluidly cut blush and orange blazer is the third piece. A mismatched brown belt complements the palette and dresses up the look. Cream flat Mary Janes with matching cream boho-chic bag are the on trend finishing touches. Hoop earrings add a little glam.
Here are ways to dress up jorts with neutrals, and also without toppers:
2. Bubbled and Vested
Bubble skirts continue to fringe trend while waistcoats (or vests) are mainstream. Here’s an example of wearing them together. A knee-length tan broomstick pleated bubble skirt is combined with on off-white long length waistcoat. White sneakers add a Sporty Luxe touch.They match the top, while the stripes match the model’s hair. Arm candy and hoop earrings add shine and interest. A gold bag would work well too.
3. Patterned Pants Set
Co-ords in the form of roomy patterned tops with matching patterned pants in airy linens and cottons continue to trend. They are an easy and breezy way to dress if you like the visual effect. The sleeved versions offer effective sun protection. Here’s a version in a cream and olive pattern. The set is completed with cream and black flatform sandals, which match the cream in the pattern and the model’s hair. An on trend crochet boho-chic bag completes the look.
Here more versions of co-ords, generally worn with flat sandals or slides. There are ballet flats and sneakers too:
4. Boho-Lite Dress
Last, an on trend boho-lite dress in a breezy tiered silhouette is a no fuss pull-on-and-go, and there are countless variations in colour and styles. This version is a ‘70s silhouette in ‘80s colours so quite the eclectic mix. Western accents are classic AND on trend making the metallic cowboy boots a delicious addition. Add jewellerry, bag, eyewear and watch as desired.
