Fall 2016 Fashion Trends

Now that NYFW has come and on, and fashion week continues to move its way around the globe, we have an idea what is going to be big this fall.  So what exactly should you make sure to be adding to your closet?

f21-suit

Skirt Suit

There isn’t anything old fashioned or boring about this suit trend.  Its updated from previous years with interesting patterns, fabrics and cuts.  Also the hem lines stay high, keeping the look ever so youthful (and who doesn’t want to look younger).

Check out this one we are loving from Forever21

Reinvented Denim

We are already starting to see this trend all over street fashion.  The new denim look is to take your old denim and reinvent it.  Raw hems.  Patchwork.  It all looks new, and eclectic, and we love it.

You can buy this skirt here!

Say Yes to Velvet

Be new, and reinvent your velvet, with a shift or slip dress, or velvet suit pieces.  It adds texture, and a new dynamic to any outfit.

For a safer look, try this shift dress by TopShop.
Feeling a littler bolder?  TopShop also makes a blazer.

Burnt Orange

This muted orange color looks amazing on almost every skin tone, and with pretty much every accent color.  Besides, it looks so warm, and reminds us of pumpkin spice latte’s.

Check out this great sweater from H&M.

How to Follow Fashion Week When You Can’t be There

11 Thursday Feb 2016

Yesterday was the first day of New York Fashion Week. I am back home in Maine, living my life, doing my “real job.”

I would love to attend fashion shoes, I nearly drool over the idea.  Like most of us who are not in the industry, we as StylishTwo do not have the luxury to be invited to the shows, and we also have very successful careers that sometimes limit our traveling.  So how can we stay current with whats happening at the runway from the comfort of our own living rooms?  Here are a few ideas to help!

  1. You can actually watch live stream, and even replays of the shows.  Yes. You heard correctly. Check out NewYorkFashionWeekLive.com!
  2. Social Media.  Lets admit it.  We all have Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat.  Start following influencial people (designers, your favorite models and bloggers), to a constant stream of their live action shots.  Want some suggestions on who to follow?  Check out this list by Glamour, or this one by Elle.
  3. There’s an App for That.  The seemingly never ending collection of apps on our phone seem to do everything for us.  Arrange our schedule, wake us up in the morning, provide and exercise routine, and help scope out fashion week.  Check out this list by SheKnows to see what awesome app’s are out there to help you navigate the runways and the street style!

 

Enjoy the shows!

Spring fashion weeks are well upon us. A few weeks ago, we reported on New York Fashion Week, but that has not fulfilled out need for spring fashion yet!  Here are some of our favorite looks from Paris Fashion Week.

Almost Naked

Sheer chiffon, revealing lace and open weave crochet fabrics.  These fabrics add a layer of elegance, while still incorporating your under garments as part of your wardrobe.  Personal favorite?  This amazing dress by Balenciaga.

Put a Bow on It

Soft feminine touches like a bow can really elevate your wardrobe!

Up The Volume

In your sleeves that is!  Large sleeves, voluimous sleeves of pretty much any style make their mark in Paris.  Likely a continuation of puffy sleeves of the fall Victorian trend, so don’t let your fashion sights stop there, and step outside the box.

Wear White

Paris fashion always makes me think simplistic, chic, and black.  Always black.  Spring fashion trends in Paris appeared to go the opposite direction though, with lots and lots of white.  After all, who wouldn’t want to wear this great dress by Hermes?
