Trends

Hey everyone, it has been really long since I posted something one her but I had to do quite a lot for school. Now, I'm in week 1 of my final exams and I have quite a lot of free time, which I should use for studying. Instead I'm making a new blogpost and I think I'm craving for Gossip Girl (everyone knows how this is going to end). Anyways, as the title says, this post is going to be about trends, S/S 2013 to be more specific. Before that though I wanted to let you know that I made a tumblr style blog on which I am everyday. It's mostly polyvore sets, but as soon as I get to wear some fancier outfits I'll definitely post them on there. Here is the link: fyOla. Also, as in one month school is over for me (I'm kinda sad lol), I hope to get to post on here more often. I'd really like to. But lets get to the point, here are some of my favourite trends of this season!:


trend 1

01. Dungarees/Dungaree Dresses
When I first saw Eleanor Calder with the long dungarees (3rd but darker) I wasn't sure if I like this trend, but I slowly fell in love with it. I'm still not a fan of the long dungarees though. I own a short pair from Zara (similar to the 4th on the picture) and a a pinafore dress from New Look (5th in the picture but different color), but I look forward to getting another pair of these cute jumpsuits. Right now I'm lusting after the bleached denim dungarees from Topshop (1st), but I''d also like to get a dressier pair (like the 2nd). They are a great alternative to a dress.

02. Highwaisted Bottoms
It's not a new trend, it has been around since last year or even the year before, I'm aware of thar. But oh my god where has this been all my life?? This is one of my favourite trends of all time. Skirts, shorts, skinny jeans - I love everything that if highwaisted. It doesn't just look cute but is also very flattering for most people. I don't know what I wore befoe the high waist skirts came around.

03. Cut Out Shoes
This is more of a spring trend than a summer trend, especially when we look at these boots. First of the famous Topshop Katz. These are more on the dressier side and I have a love-hate relationship with them. The second ones are the Topshop Aftershocks. I cry over them at night. But really, I love low they are tied and I really wish they weren't sold out. And last at not least - the New Look limited leather cut out boots. I've been lusting over them since a month or so and I think I'm gonna ask my dad to order them. They are low stock and the price is really good for the fact that they are genuine leather. I really like how simple yet cute and edgy they are.

04. Shift Dresses
I loove, love love this trend! Despite the simple, straight cut these dresses are very flattering, I think. They can be styled up with some heels and nice jewelry or worn casual with some cut sandals and a denim jacket. I also think they would look really good with a detachable collar. The 2nd dress (H&M) is also a denim dress, so it blends two trends together, how cool is that? For now I could get my hands on one shift dress in a thrift shop and I can't wait to wear it when summer comes around. It is a little bit similar to the Victoria Beckham dress (1st), like the colors and all. I found it quite difficult to find nice shift dresses on polyvore, but if you want to buy one I'd recommend checking out H&M (2nd & 3rd) or Zara (4th & 5th), as they have a couple of really nice ones.

05. Cropped Tops
If you haven't noticed crop tops then you better get yourself a pair of glasses. They are huge right now. Long sleeve, short sleeve, tight, loose, longer shorther, more casual, more dressy, it's all about crop tops. Just look at these babies (all Topshop), aren't they cute? I personally don't wear them to often, because, let's be honest I don't have the perfect body. And let's be honest, the aren't really flattering. Nevertheless, I think curvier girls could pull them off with some cute high-waisted bottoms. For the best choice I'd check Topshop and Brandy Melville!


And well, that would be it for today. I could think of a couple more trends I like but I got kinda bored doing this, so I'll just do a part two some other time. xx
