Today's FBFF Questions are all about summer trends. Katy Rose of Modly Chic has asked us what we are loving for the upcoming season.
I’m actually loving pretty much the same trends for summer
as I was for spring. Weather-wise there
isn’t a huge difference between spring and summer weather in my part of Oregon so
my summer wardrobe is essentially my spring wardrobe but with more sandals.
Here are some things I can’t wait to wear this summer with
sandals.
Tropical Prints
I’m amused as all heck that tropical prints are back. I like them because they’re kitschy and I
love the kitsch, but I also like them because they’re so easy to thrift. In fact, I’ve already worn a thrifted,
tropical print piece this year:
Printed Pants
I’m sort of obsessed with this trend. As I mentioned before, I know I probably
shouldn’t wear printed pants given the size and militancy of my thighs, but
darned if I don’t love them. I’ve
thrifted a couple of pairs, including these that I’ve already worn this spring:

Tangerine
It’s the Pantone Color of the Year and, in my opinion, for
good reason. It’s just so frickin’
vibrant. See?:
Coral Belts
Okay, this isn’t a trend, except in my wardrobe, but I love
my skinny coral belt. I’ve worn it
multiple times and will definitely be wearing it all summer long:
Neon
It took me a little while to get on board with neon last
year, but I’m glad it stuck around for another year. I have a few pieces in my closet, mostly neon
pink, mostly thrifted, and I can’t wait to wear them. I’d also love a pair of neon shoes, like one of the pairs below.

Or even a pair with just a little bit of neon, like these:

that print dress is so awesome. Also, try the Target. They have some really cute neon and taupe wedges that I just bought a pair of.

Whoa, I can't believe I don't have any tropical prints! I'd love to add one of two for summer. I still love the neon trend, too! The pastel one just hasn't grown on me.
ReplyDeleteOooo love the floral dress! I definitely look forward to wearing fun dresses in the summer :) Always puts some bounce in my step :)

Tangerine makes me drool like Pavlov's dog, and automatically buy it :P I've also worn the hell outta my coral skinny belt from Target.
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to matching some mini skirts with slouchy/super casual tops. And I really want to try out more printed pants looks!
