70's disco

The roll of the 7o's disco is coming back this summer! Tye & Dye and hippie prints are going to be printed in lots of garments, especially in beach type of clothes. Bright colours like blue, green, orange, pink or purple, but NEVER, EVER WEAR YELLOW as a colour for the whole garment. Maybe, as ONE of the colours, but NEVER as only one colour.

Vaporous dresses, large skirts, bellbottoms, flowers, pleated fabrics or frills. This is going to be one of the most worn styles this summer in places from beaches to cocktails or dinners. You should ALWAYS wear this with platform heels or very high heels.

If you are aged 12 or 60, this style is also for you! It has no age!

Stella McCartney, Miu Miu and Blumarine have created great designs for this summer! Have a look at them. Hope you like it!

Urban safari

Shirtwaist, saharans or metal studs are some of the apparels you can wear to get a safari look. you might probably think... why should I be wearing safari style clothes? Well, though not many people wear this style, it is very used by CEBS and many designers like Paul & Joe, Loewe or Oscar de la Renta are using this style for their catwalks and fashion shows. You can wear it maybe, with a thin leather or suede belt! It will look very good!

The colours to wear this clothes are khaki, sand tones, the colours of the african savannah are used more than anything in fabrics such as linen or cotton.

As a crowning finish, I would add a large picture hat that will give a very personal touch.

The latest trends

For this time of the year, the beginning of summer the latest trends are: wear fluorescent colours, t-shirts with XL prints, sequins, high waisted skirts, garments with gauze, floral prints, zip skirts, type shoulder bag made out of suede, old cowboy shorts, navy stile, watercolor prints, champagne and nude color clothes, sailor hat, picture hat or even maybe strapless bikinis with a chain in the top.

I recommend shops such as: Alexander McQueen, Emilio Pucci or Zac Posen for night dresses. Louis Vuitton, Burberry, Victoria Secret for swimming suits. Marc Jacobs, Fendi, Prada for handbags, Jimmy Choo, Massimo Dutti, Franchia for clutch bags. Old Navy, Salvatore Ferragamo, Gianfranco Ferré or Armani for casual looks. I hope you wear what you wear, you'll look nice and trendy this summer!

Femme Fatale

In the last few years, the roll of looking like men, or at least dressing as men is being very used. Black is THE COLOUR. As the colour black is very elegant and combinable, you can use it with whichever garment you want. Also you can wear black in apparels like: blazers, dresses, smooth long night trousers, maybe with a bow? Black boots with heel cord are one of the latest trends in this section. The best-known style CELEBRITIES wear this kind of clothes and I recommend to buy this clothes designer and shops like: Yohji Yamamoto, Miu Miu, Giuseppe Zanotti or Malan Breton. You might not know who some of these designers are, but I hope you like what they design!

Summer 2010

The trends of this summer are wearing silk and vaporous clothes.Also bright colours such as bright blue, green or pink. White is going to be very worn this summer in the beach in garments like long shirts, baggy trousers and dresses. For the night, long dresses and long shirts with trousers and a thin belt inbetween. For shoes, clogs (you can buy them in shops like Massimo Dutti, Chanel or Stella McCartney). Sandals with some kind of rhinestones/tracks or roman sandals(availables in shops such as Giorgio Armani, Etro or Prada). Talking about summer and sun, what about sungasses? Von Dutch, Tom Ford,Prada or Phillip Lim are some of the most quoted sunglasses. I hope this blog has helped you to decide what you will be wearing this summer!

Vintage and Retro

Nowadays, old-fashioned retro and vintage styles are being used pretty much. Some famous celebrities such as Sienna Miller, Alexa Chung or Olivia Palermo are using this way of wearing fashion. The wear brands like Dior, a British brand called Twenty8Twelve, MOGG, Paul & Joe, Abercrombie & Fitch and Chloé, between others.

You can wear vintage clothes for every kind of ocasion or appointment. This is, with any doubt, on of the most worn styles.

Christian Louboutin

Louboutin seems that this time has driven our beloved Manolo, the truth, it was time, because since the new genius placed its mythical salons in the foot, which boasts all CEBS has not done more to create real sculptures to wear our feet, and is Christian Louboutin who not only managed to park on one side to the high Manolo Blahnik, but has also got that Jimmy Choo was overlooked.

This is a blog in which we will write about the last trends and what you should and shouldn't wear.
