Fashion is commonly used to describe a style of clothing worn by most
people of a country. A fashion remains popular for the period of
time that a large segment of society accepts it; that could be for a
few months or years. However, it is normal for the fashion trends to
change according to the seasons. For instance, during summers the common
colors worn are the pastel shades and lighter fabric. Come winter and
the preferred color ranges are the darker and brighter ones and the
fabric is heavier.
Fashion
is something we deal with everyday. And one thing certain in the
fashion world is change. The collections in Paris, New York and Milan,
and now London, typically set the stage for the industry one-year in
advance. Fashion stylists too get new fashion ideas from music, videos,
books, television and even movies. Even the street is the real barometer
of style. More and more designers are drawing their inspiration from
life on the street. If a
particular clothing or accessory is depicted by famous personalities, it
definitely becomes a trend for the people to follow the same. Films
have become catalogs and people are copying from the particular style
of actors and icons.
What
we wear and how and when we wear it, depicts our personality for
changing situations. It is from the clothes a person wears that we get
our first impression of personality. They provide mental clues to a
person`s status and occupational role, as well as being a means of
conforming to peer group expectations. Fashion is important to us
because it`s a means of self-expression. It helps to identify ourselves
with a group of others like us--whether it`s a lifestyle, a religion, a
profession, or an attitude.
Summer Trends:
As the summer season is at its peak it's time to start thinking about the warm summer months. Thankfully, many of the trends that were in style for spring are still going to be in full force through the fall -- all it takes is a little modifying. If you want to give the luxe leather trend a go, make sure you try the material in a mini skirt or a tank top. Instead of sporting overalls, why not opt for a pair of shortfalls to let your legs breathe while the temps rise?
To celebrate the start of summer, I've compiled a list of the top ten trends of the season. It's never been so easy to be in fashion! Happy summer everyone.
Leather
Leather might seem contradictory in the summer, but this luxe fabric
will make any outfit look expensive (just make sure you don't go head to
toe in the material).
Power Clashing
The
trick to wearing mismatched prints is to make sure the sizes of the
patterns are different so the clashing looks intentional.
Overalls
aren't just for kids anymore. They have been seen all over the runways,
and the latest take on the jumpsuit is the easiest (and most
comfortable) piece for summer.
Holographic Clothes & Accessories
Stripes are always in fashion, but this year try something bold a prison uniform.
Forget maxi skirts, this season is all about the midi skirt. This new, slightly shorter length is perfect to wear around the office.

This
'90s trend is out in full force this season -- if you dare to try this
bold look we suggest you pair it with loose fitting bottoms.
