I know. It is a little early to say it is summer…. but the weather is so nice. This means that I can start breaking out all of my summer fashions. I think my summer will consist of variations of my two new favourite trends: Vintage Americana and Gatsby Glamour.
Vintage Americana
With the recession slowing being shed, dreams of a more affluent time are just around the corner. Think glossy leathers buffed to a Cadillac sheen and lustrous wet-look skirts, while red-coat lipstick conjures classic car glamour. Prim plaids from pastel checks to classic tablecloth ginghams are the new motif to covet. Finally, the only accessory you need to complete your look is a pair of cat’s eye sunglasses for the perfect hit of retro Americana
Gatsby Glamour:
With F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic The Great Gatsby coming to cinemas in December, the streets will be brimming with deco details and Twenties silhouettes. By day, flirty drop-waist dresses should be the look of choice but by night, cast yourself as a modern-day Daisy Buchanan. Tasseled trims in abundance with lavish beading or a froth of ostrich feathers.
Maybe this is the raspberry’s I had for lunch talking, but I love summer and all the outdoor fun and frolicking it brings!
