Okay, so as much as many of us hate to admit it, black has not been the standard selection shoppers tend to reach for (or in terms of us online shopoholics, we catch ourselves scrolling down the color menu to see what other colors are available).
"Basic Black" has not necessarily been put on the back burner, but a color frenzy has definitely taken center stage for quite some time this past season. From the gradient ombre of colors to color blocks, the latest trends have been reacquainting themselves with some blasts from the past. Never in my mind did I think I would practice the courage to incorporate neon into my wardrobe in fear of resuscitating my fashion-frightworthy moments of neon scrunchies, tube socks, and fanny packs from the 80's. Next thing I know, I seemed to master the skill in modernizing neon like skipping 1-2-3.
Now that the trends of the season have constantly presented us with daring ways to reinvent ourselves, what's your take on: Paisley Prints and Psychedelic Eyewear?
And no, let's avoid making a tribute to Austin Powers.
Psychedelic Eyewear - Say hello to the offspring to our favorite cat-eyed frames by Thierry Lasry, a brand highly coveted by many A-list stars. Among its most popular fans? Jessica Alba and Eva Mendes can't seem to get enough of their funky shades. Dressed up, dressed down, these two have made these fun, colorful shades their new staples!
Paisley Print - Stella McCartney and Jill Sanders have jumped on the retro-patterned bandwagon. Silent and subtle? Think again! Their runway take of the trend is definitely loud in expression, but if you are considering taking a more modest take on this trend take some inspiration from Fergie and models Alexa Chung and Miranda Kerr!
