STYLE ADVICE: Vintage Trends Making a Comeback

I am so in love with this look, that I had to share it with you. I am going to give you some advice using this Fashionista as inspiration to talk about some fashionable trends from this past year.

First, we need to talk about vests. I am not talking about the pinstriped, black vest we all had in our closets in the ’90s. That was a big trend, am I right? No, I am talking about open, long vests that go well with a long sleeved shirt, a sleeveless top, or a dress. Vests are very versatile, which is nice for college students so you can wear something several times, in several ways and no one will ever know.

Fringe is everywhere! Another trend we are seeing lately is fringe everywhere from clothing to furniture to shoes and even jewelry. Wearing an item with fringe is a surprising, but stunning way to add some flair to your look. Just make sure that the detail of the fringe doesn’t take overpower the whole ensemble.

Bell sleeves are a personal favorite of mine and they look fabulous on you. Although you may be hesitant because they remind you of the ’70s, give it a chance and I promise you will fall in love too. Bell sleeves look unbelievable on any body type. Just be careful though, if you decide to wear a long vest and a top underneath with long bell sleeves, that you don’t look baggy by having on several garments which are long and loose.

Crocheted detail is starting to become prominent as well. The crocheted detail adds a vintage touch to an outfit but it is comfortable too. This crocheted detail has a black, wave pattern with fringe on the bottom, which gives it a modern feeling.

This Fashionista is looking fabulous and deserves some serious props. Everything from the color of her dress down to the socks she wore with her boots are on point. Regardless of what may be a current trend, don’t ever forget who you are and wear what makes you feel comfortable.
