All The Ruffles💃

Posted on August 30, 2016 by itzalook

Almost every fashion trend is an evolution of a different time period of dressing. Ruffles are no different. During the 1930’s flamenco costumes used ruffles on their dresses because it added to their dancing. Throughout several decades ruffles came and went in various ways. On the runway ruffles can now be spotted at both ends of the spectrum, from minimalist styles to extravagant dresses.

A stylish two piece set is definitely an essential to any wardrobe. It makes getting dressed that much easier. This season coordinating sets can be found in every type of style. Many designers such as Carolina Herrera have done a more formal take on the trend. However, stores like Forever 21 have sets that are casual and perfect for everyday streetwear.

Florals ❁

Posted on August 23, 2016 by itzalook

Floral printed clothing is definitely a summer staple. The floral motif exudes femininity and youthfulness. Many years ago people decided to put flowers on clothing for different types of symbolism. Now, on the runway you can find them printed on long billowy dresses or embellished onto structured jackets.

Off The Shoulder ☀

Posted on August 18, 2016 by itzalook

Times haven’t changed. The off the shoulder dresses have been mimicked since the early 1800’s. The sleeveless dresses had shoulder straps or ribbons tied over the shoulder. The off the shoulder trend can now be seen in both romantic dresses and flowy tops, often paired with boyfriend jeans.
