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 you could care less about fashion trends and love your riding boots- wear them. If you found a clothing item you are in love with that is not popular right now- wear it anyways.

I do not view trends in the fashion industry as guidelines everyone must conform to – I view them as a fun way to experiment with your style and change up your wardrobe if you desire. I love trends because I love to constantly experiment and try out new things, and trends come and go so quickly in the fashion industry that I constantly feel inspired to try more.

But you do not have to follow all the runway shoes and purchase every trend you see to have style and dress well.

Feeling like you have to constantly know what’s “in” and what’s “out” can cause unnecessary stress- just wear whatever makes you feel confident.

Snakeskin:

With all of that being said, one of my favorite trends this fall is animal print of any kind. Leopard, snakeskin, tiger- even cow is popular! Today we are going to be focussing on Snakeskin, just because it happened to be the one I had photographed and prepared for today.

Below I will share my snakeskin pieces for inspiration followed by my picks with links to easily shop and other bloggers’ outfits for even more inspiration!
