The Trend Keeper Talks Tricky Trends for SS2013


Spring and summer of 2013 were full of bright prints, new materials, and unorthodox mixing and matching. There were more than a few trends that stood out to me as just a little outlandish – but where there’s a will, there’s a way. I’ve gone through these eccentric trends and paired them with classic pieces in order to create a classic, but original, outfit.
Overalls


Romper - Forever 21
As a kid growing up in the 90’s, overalls were everywhere. But then – they went out of style (and I mean out). Lately, though, they’ve been making quite a comeback. You can find them in simple denim styles, or in brightly colored prints. I know when I first saw them starting to appear in stores again, I had my extreme hesitations. It is possible to make these “fit” with an outfit! Here is my take on a classic overall style.

Leather

Leather Pencil Dress - Browns Fashion
When I think of leather, I think way back to the leather pants trend – and not the cute leather skinny pants that are out now. But, leather has gotten extremely stylish this season and comes in every form you can think of. There are leather shorts, pants, dresses, skirts, and even tops. My personal favorite is leather shorts. Here’s how I style in leather to make a simple look.

Neon Colors

Gucci Neon Hi-Tops -Neiman Marcus
I know when I first saw all the neon colors on the runway, my first thought was – wow. Would I really want to wear super bright colors in a jumpsuit and attract so much attention? But after really thinking about it, I realized how adorable neon colors can be in moderation. Don’t let the color scare you! You can fit it into an outfit as a pop instead of the entire look.

You don’t ever need to be afraid to try any trends that may seem completely outlandish at first look. There’s always a way to wear items to fit your personal style!
