  • All things chic

These are just a few examples of this fall’s eclectic trend. Never thought you could wear more than one printed piece? Where look how all our fashion no-no’s have been dashed this season.

Some fashion editors call this look “the bag lady look” (handbag editors that is) but in my opinion “eclectic” sounds more flattering.

It’s all about mixing different colors, patterns, fabrics creating a mind-boggling appearance. Stripes, plaid, animal prints and polka dots are designers’ favorites and shoes play a vital role in this “game”. I’ll be searching and showing here in future posts other eclectic looks, mixes of fabrics and colors.

Are suspenders this fall's trend?

Suspenders trend

I'm not sure what to think about the suspenders trouser pants/overalls trend. 70s inspired wide-leg pants, in neutral shades look fine but you should be careful what you wear them with. Stick to a feminine classy look: a delicate bow neck shirt or a...

A new take on an old classic. The Trench
