Trend Alert! Neon: How it’s Transformed Over Time & How to Style!
History of Neon: The neon clothing trend initially filled the closets of the most fashionable icons in the 80s. Prior to this decade, neon had been prominent in avant-garde looks, but made its way into every day looks through windbreakers and jelly shoes by the 80s. My own mother reflects on her teenage years and recalls wearing neon sports bras under slouchy, different neon colored, tees. Into the 90s, neon branched into the makeup world and became the attire of the underground rave scene in New York and London. Fast forward to 2012, during my middle school years, neon came back in splashes and was rocked by my friends and…

Trend Alert: Talking about Snakeskin & My Thoughts on Trends in General
Trends: Recently one of my favorite YouTubers posted a video about trends that are out and what trends you should be wearing instead. The video was… aggressive. She basically pointed out all of the basic “trends” that have been “overdone” and was rather harsh when it came to her opinion on them. As you can imagine, this was offensive to nearly all the commenters on the video. While I got so much inspiration from what she was saying and could even agree with some of her criticism, I view WAY trends differently than she does. My thoughts on trends and clothing in general are: wear whatever makes you happy. If…

Trend Alert: Hats!
These hats have been super popular this year and while I am uncertain about their actual name since so many stores call them different things (boy hats, fiddler hats, page hats, cabby hats, etc), I love them! I wear mine with literally everything- even bathing suits! They are the perfect addition to any outfit and definitely one of my favorite current trends. Today I will be sharing my picks as well as four different examples of how I would style them. Shop every look by clicking on the photo in the slide show below the collage. Thank you so much to everyone who shops through my links, it allows me…

If you enjoy this post and want to see more trendy fall looks, check out this video: FALL TREND LOOK BOOK//HOW TO STYLE OVER THE KNEE BOOTS. In the first look I am styling a gold corduroy jumper dress that gives the same affect as the overall trend, but does not look as childish! Don’t get me wrong, I love the overall trend and have a black overall dress I love to wear for game day. All I am saying is, if you want to try out the trend but do not think full on overalls are exactly your thing, this is the perfect option for you. This dress has a lower…

High Low Maxi Romper Trend
Once again, I do not think there is a trend I do not love. Well, I take that back. I cannot do the fur shower shoes trend. I can understand it on some people, but I do not like it. If you do not know what I am referring to, check it out here. Anyways, like I was saying, I love this trend. Everyone loves a good romper. Rompers are so easy because you do not have to match up an outfit, just throw on a romper! They are more comfy than dresses because you do not have to worry when you bend down or want to sit criss cross…

My Thoughts on the Embroidery Trend!
You guessed it! Like I do every other trend, I love it! I have been wanting some embroidered pieces for over a year now! I was even loving the trend so much last year that I based the outfit I made at an NC State University Summer camp all around it! You can read all about my experience here: My Experience: STEP and NC State has also published it on their website! Anyways, to get back to the point, we got to do trend research in the lab before beginning our clothing item, and the trend I decided to focus on was embroidery! Check out the post I linked to…

Lace Up Trend
Yet another trend that has made its way back around! I remember when I was little I had an Abercrombie and Fitch hoodie with the lace up detail and absolutely hated the lace up part! I thought it made me feel like a pirate or something! I plan to do a post all about my style evolution, inspired by @pastelnpinkblog on Instagram,, soon! Check out this post:Old is the New New for all my thoughts on reoccurring trends! I guess you could say that the trend has grown on me! I actually have two dresses and one top with this detail! I bought the first dress over a year ago-…

Choker Tee Trend
You may have realized by now but I am really down to try out any trend! This choker tee trend is one I had been wanting to try for a long time but all the ones I saw in the stores were too low cut or too big of a V for me, so I decided to make my own and give the trend a try! Check out this post: How To: Tie Dye Choker Tee to learn how to make a choker tee yourself! Based on this shirt, I love the trend! Do you know how whenever you wear a v neck shirt you normally feel like you have to…
