Spring-Summer Fashion Trends

Looks like spring is finally here (even though it's still fighting the battle against winter here in Toronto), so I thought why not make a fashion post (as I love fashion very much so!) :)
I always happen to know the latest trends (even though I might not follow them), plus did a little research on it, so here you go!
I tried to put here types of cloth that would be suitable for many, if not all, types of body and also linked some of the items to the store where you can buy them for a good price (Just click on an item or look and it'll take you to the website). Also, remember that stuff also goes on sale, so wait a week or two and you might save big :) 

This season I would go for something unusual and unique, play with colours, prints and patterns. But let's start with some of the examples of what is currently in trend


SWEATSHIRTS

Sweatshirts were a hit last season and they're still running big this spring and summer. For a girl who loves latest trends or who wants to feel unique - it's a must! What's really charming and nice about them is the pallet of colours, textiles and prints. Also they're very comfortable AND stylish at the same time :) 



DRESSES

Dresses are the joy and fun of summer, and it's all about flowers and softness of colours and textiles. 
This season flowers on your dresses should be big and tropical, colourful and fabulous :) 
Another big hit is lace. It doesn't mean a dress should be made completely out of lace, but a few details on the edges or on the dress work just as well!




BOYFRIEND'S PANTS

What else can I say? May the pants in this season be very comfortable and loose in shape. :D

 

But if you don't like this style, 60's are in fashion again :)
Try these Audrey Hepburn-like pants. It's a classic!




SHOES RULE THE WORLD

Loafers, boots, sandals and classic hills are all in trend this season! There's something for everyone!! :)





General Bits and Pieces of What's Trending 

Pastel Colours everywhere!
Bright but natural colours (no neon)
Big floral (preferably tropical) prints
A la Audrey Hepburn style
A la Chanel (Outerwear)
Pink colour
Combining comfort and elegance, sport and classy (sweatshirts with classic pencil skirt and hills)


And in the conclusion, here I created a few looks that will make you look like the most beautiful girl in the world and who is not only very confident, but also knows her style and what's on trend at the moment :)
Hope this will inspire you for even more gorgeous looks.











Hope you enjoyed this post :)
Have an amazing day!!

Write down my story



Time for some serious topic!


As I mentioned before, I'd also like this blog to be kinda of diary, so let me share what's been on my mind lately, and get these thoughts off my mind.



One of the reasons I started this blog was because I love writing! Maybe I should be a temp secretary like in the 60's? I could be like Audrey Hepburn in Paris When It Sizzles. Work for writers and screenwriters who are lazy to type up their works. 

It's another reason why I like keeping a diary, because I love writing down thoughts and enjoy the process of writing them. 

Yes, I love writing, but it doesn't mean I'm good at it in order to make it my thing. I always thought about working in a magazine (fashion one please) but I know that I'm not at that level! I've took few writing classes in uni, and know my abilities and saw how much better others were. So the best I can do here, is to keep it as my hobby.


I don't even know how to write, let's say, professionally! I don't have my own style of writing and that gut instinct for it. It also relates to that I often think that I'm not good at anything, just don't have any "strengths" or that one thing that I do the best. Seems like I can do a few things good, but not to the max and it's not something that comes naturally.


Then I start thinking that I'm worthless and that I can't do anything right and don't even have at least one thing that I'm passionate about, like other people seem to have.
Then I talk myself to "oh, come on, everyone has that something that makes them so unique and and that time will come and you'll find it". But it doesn't seem to be happening, so thoughts about how miserable and worthless I am flood my mind all over again. See, I ended up in this terrible circle of uncertainty and it doesn't get any better.


Everyone keeps telling (or said so before), that they are/were in an exact same position. So why don't  you write a guide for us, those who struggle too?! And not the "oh, it'll be fine, just work on it and try different things" one, but the real one, that even tells you how to act in order to cope with different kinds of situations. 



It also relates to that "Being 20 (and over)" thing. I just hate to think that life will get even harder in the future! Sometimes I get so desperate I start wishing to be 5 years old again! 

Everyone expects me to act like an adult, but I'm even scared to think about those problems! 
When I was little, I always wished to grow up because thought life will be easier... Oh, how wrong I was!!
