The Hottest Summer 2012 Trends You Should Be Trying Out!

There are many ‘old trends’ making a come back this season, many fun stuff to try out, glamorous ideas to consider as well as opportunities to raid your mam’s or grandma’s closet!

Whether you consider yourself a bold, fashion forward type of person or prefer ladylike shapes and colors, you can rest assured this season’s best trend comebacks are everything you’re expecting them to be and even more.

*****

1. Baroque print

First on the list of amazing old trends coming back this season is of course – Baroque! If you love your ornate vintage scarves, this is your chance to drape yourself in that print fromhead to toe! Cavalli, Versace and D&G have inspired this look and I dig it!!

Luxurious gold embroidery, floral prints, Versace elements such as chains, intertwined ropes and tassels are THE things you’ll want to wear on your blazer, shirt or dress this summer! Wear them, clash them, enjoy them – more is more this year and over-embellishing is advised!

2. Over Embellishment

Bold metallic pieces paired with equally daring prints and chunky jewellery- now doesn’t that sound familiar? Gold is one of the hottest summer 2012 trends and the good news is that you can finally wear it whichever way you desire. Color-block it with neon to create a fun 80’s effect! Don’t be afraid to opt for a huge, says-it-all, Cavalli SS 2012 clutch!

3. Neon

Fun, bright neons sure deserve a big round of applause as a major come back! And if you loved tropical hues that marked these past summers, you’ll sure love neon. I can’t think of a better trend to help you show off your bronzy tan! Check out my Lara Dress below! And it’s only €49!!

4. 20′s Glamour

The Great Gatsby inspired fashion is huge this year so go for silks, satins, feathers, beads, crystals in all that glamorous yet basic colors everyone loves.

5. 70′s shoes

Super comfortable block heels and wedges have travelled from the 70’s and kind of decided they like it here so in case you’ve missed your chance to get a pair of 70’s looking boots of shoes! I’d say this is the best trend comeback of 2012.

6. Denim

From jackets to jeans, shorts to shirts – the denim has found its way into all walks of life. The denim has become a classic that people love and adore as the one outfit that can be worn in any season or occasion. Denim on denim is even allowed now – so embrace your denim goddess and go all denim! (notice trend 2 and 3 here in this pic)
