Every season we are just thrown a bunch of different trends.
Not only can it be hard to decipher through what ones you want to go forth
with, it can be hard to resist the urge to just buy it all. I used to be in
such a bad habit of seeing a trend on other people, falling head over heels for
it buying it and leaving it till after the return date to realise that it’s not
for me or I don’t like it. A waste of money and space in my wardrobe.
In the past year or so, I have learnt that it can’t all work
for you and if all the trends worked for everyone, where would people see
essence of personal style be? With the introduction of autumnal weather and
autumnal trends, the ones I’ve really been keeping an eye on is the prince of
wales check print, red and corduroy materials.
I’ve worn blazers as a casual outerwear piece for as long as
I can remember but the grey blazer I feel has really changed the game. It’s a
really nice combination of menswear/workwear chic and adds a great touch of
sophistication and put-together-ness to an outfit. The oversized look of this
one was just right up my street with the little touch of red thread running
through it, making it more everyday appropriate.
Red really has become the colour of the season, making the
successful transition from summer to autumn. I am not one for statement pieces
but rather adding pops of colour here and there because let’s be real, I have
to be true to my black clothes. This red crop top I bought in a shop in china
which has questionable drawings of clowns on it (don’t question it or you will
just be questioning it forever) but its defoo not hard to come by some red
items these days.
The corduroy trend is something I have been toying in my
mind with. Because of the texture of it and it being mostly bottoms out of that
material, I questioned whether it was the right fit for me. But I “invested” in
the miniskirts from Primark and I have fallen head over heels with the trend. I
love the different texture especially because its black. I tend to feel a
little less guilty about wearing all black when I combine different textures.
THIS COAT IS WHAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF I AM TELLING YOU NOW.
Thinking about cost per wear, I could have just bought the Zara OG version last
year but I am so happy that my babes Primark made a version because I saved so
much money and I think it is really good quality. Its classic style means I can
carry it through multiple seasons with me and just, you know when you have
wanted something for like over a year and now you own it because it’s finally
within your budget? I’m feeling that right now
With any trend that I chose to do a little more research
into, I find the place I can get it the cheapest but also of a decent quality.
Because it is a trend item, you just don’t know how long it’s going to be
around and when you have to adult but look fashionable whilst doing so, you
just don’t want to break the bank. As most of these items are from Primark, I’ve
never had an issue with their items lasting me but shop where you see fit. More
expensive doesn’t always mean better and vice versa.
Tell me about some of the trends you have dabbled into
below, I would love to know
