Summer is finally here. You know what that means … time to go shopping. But before you head out the door, you need to learn how to spot this summer’s trends so you can be in style all season long.
For those hot summer days where your only plans involve sitting poolside to soak up the sun, you have to make sure your fashion matches your carefree attitude. Consider one of these stylish swimsuits that are sure to sizzle in 2010:
* Vintage – For summer 2010, lots of celebrities are taking a retro approach to swimsuit fashion. The one-piece ’50s pin-up style is finding its way back into the spotlight. Vogue predicts that polka dots and bright colors are exactly what women will be looking for as summer approaches.
* Cut-outs – New this season are swimsuits with an attitude. Celebrities like Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian have been seen in swimsuits with cut-outs. Whether the cut-out is tiny or huge, these swimsuits show the perfect amount of sun-kissed skin.
* Bikinis – Bikinis are making a statement. With bold colors, mix-and-match patterns and feminine accents, bikinis are letting the wearer customize her own style. Cameron Diaz is just one of the many celebrities sporting this new trend. Girly frills are the perfect addition to any bikini, plus they help hide flaws.
Unfortunately, you can’t spend all your time poolside, so you need to know all the options for a laid-back night in the warm summer weather. The ’80s are coming back in a big way, so why not embrace that retro style? Try matching ripped jeans with a printed T-shirt. Big bracelets, look-at-me nail polish and your favorite flip-flops will complete your summer ensemble.
For a night out on the town, get some impromptu fashion training from modern celebrity fashion icons like Beyonce and Rihanna by pairing a blazer with a flirty blouse. The combinations of masculine and feminine details make this look a must for summer nights.
For formal occasions this summer, the trends are going to include plenty of customizable options for you to express your individual fashion style. Neutrals have had a huge presence on New York fashion design runways for spring and summer. Flesh tones and barely there colors are classy ways to make a big fashion impression.
Multi-print dresses, feminine ruffles and feathered skirts are just right for bringing fun into your wardrobe this summer. By including unique and distinctive elements in your outfits, you are sure to make a big splash this season. Always choose fashion elements that fit your personality, because fashion is about showing your creativity and individual style.
If you always feel like you are way ahead of the trends, why not set them yourself? By enrolling in fashion design classes, you can improve your skills and learn more about what you love.
