Seasonless Dressing

An emerging new trend being seen in the fashion industry is seasonless dressing. A few years ago each season there was a new "must have" trend which is now no longer the case. Designers are are now not worried about particular trends but instead creating something they feel passionate about. Now instead of having ten must-have pieces each season, a consumer should be more focused on having ten investment pieces in their wardrobe. This change could be a result of the economy, consumers feel it is more important to buy investment pieces as opposed to buying a new trendy wardrobe each season.

European trends are now influencing American fashion more than ever. Monochromatic dressing is the newest color trend. Wearing grey from head-to-toe (grey shoes, shirts, pant, everything) is an easy, figure flattering way to look chic. Black is the "it" color. Wearing black is the easiest way to look chic and sophisticated. An easy way to make a solid black wardrobe more interesting is focusing on the details. Black pieces can be made more interesting by unique stitching, piping, shoulder pads or embellishments.

Blazers

Gustez Blazer available at Dean-Kingston $244

A blazer is a necessary element for any woman's wardrobe. A basic black blazer is just a basic that everyone should possess, this can be worn casual or business like. A boyfriend blazer is one of my favorite pieces of my wardrobe. It is so easy to throw this on with jeans, shorts, or even over a dress. The details in blazers are what really set the good ones apart from the rest; shoulder pads are a great detail, they make blazers look a little more feminine and create a great shape, unique buttons, pockets, stitching, and lining are all things that should be considered when purchasing a blazer.
