Why is that when you’re really watching your pennies and
limiting yourself to buying no-more than one item a month (even that’s at a
push) that fashion gets so damn good. There are so many new and exciting trend
pieces in the stores that I thought I’d share my want-list here on the blog. I
mean, if I can't get my hands on them all I’d at least like to talk about them.
The chunky ‘dad’ trainers
I’ll admit it, when I first seen the Balenciaga trainers hit
Instagram I was not a fan. I thought they were far too bulky and fussy to work
with anything in my wardrobe and I just didn’t see them taking off. Fast
forward a month or so and now most of the high-street stores have their own
version and I’ve finally come around. Places like Public
Desire and Zara have some amazing dupes that I much prefer with their more
simplistic feel. The ‘Cheetah’ from PB are my faves and they’re a bargain
£29.99! I also don’t see this trend sticking around for much longer than a year
or so would be hesitant to investing in the real deal.
How to style them:
- With a pair of lose fitting trouser and a casual tee
- With a midi-length silk skirt and crow neck jumper
- Paired with light denim straight leg jeans and a turtle-neck top
- Dressing down a matching two-piece suit
The two-piece
They’ve been around for a good while now but my need for the
two-piece suit is as strong as ever. Pink has been the colour to have and I’m
fortunate enough to have (very recently) got my hands on an amazing
80s-inspired pink suit from Quiz.
It’s a really nice shape and fit, and I’m excited about the multiple ways I’ll
be able to style these pieces. They don’t have to be plain either like this
white pin-stripe suit from Missguided.
I’ve also seen short suits creep into the stores which will be perfect for the
warmer weather.
How to style the suit:
- Worn together with barely-there heels and a lace body or bandeau crop top
- Dressed down with a graphic tee and chunky trainers (see above 😊)
- Worn as separates. The trousers with an over-sized boyfriend shirt and sliders. Or the jacket with a mini skirt and sock boots
Gen Z Yellow
I can hand on heart say I’ve never been a fan of the colour
yellow in my wardrobe…..until now. I don’t know what it is about yellow this
season but it seems to be THE colour to wear. I never thought yellow to be a
flattering colour for me as I’m so pale but after trying on this
crop top I’ve completely changed my mind. I now feel like yellow is the
colour that will see me through this summer. I’ve already ordered this gorgeous
(and super cheap!) yellow
bikini from Shein for my upcoming weekend in Marbs. The countdown is on!!
Since this trend is just a colour, I’ve picked out some of my
favourite looks from the celebs above. I need them ALL.
That’s all for now but do let me know if you enjoyed this
type of post and I can incorporate it into the blog more often. Happy shopping!
xoxo
