Festival Fashion 2015

Festival Fashion 2015 | Boho Chic at its Best

Well fashion friends, spring 2015 has officially sprung and so we are moving into another exciting season of fashion. Spring time means a lot of things, but one of the most exciting is that it is officially the start of Festival Season!

Festival Season entails a wide range of shows and festivities among the most exciting being outdoor music concerts.

This obviously brings to mind what is the fashion code for such events? Obviously in most instances festivals mean warm to hot days followed by chilly evenings. So how does this relate to our inner spirit of fashion? Well this season we are all in luck, because as everyone knows Bohemian style is so hot right now that it is blistering.

So this Festival Season let your inner flower power child loose and enjoy the dress code of the original festival kings of the era of peace and love!

This festival season we like simple denim shorts paired with tanks and halters. Scarves are a must for us and can be tied at the waist and later draped across the shoulders in the chillier evening, should it be needed of course!

If you really want to go traditional pair a long flowing Boho skirt with a halter top or even a simple white tee. Plain white tees are all the rage this season as well. Find your favorite expression tee and pair it up with some jelly sandals and a geometrical skirt and you're set.

This season if for some reason your venue doesn't allow you to bring bags or other items to carry your evening covering, it may be wise to consider wrapping a sweater around your waist or consider a jacket or vest to accompany you…nothing worse than dancing the day away and freezing at night!

To complete the Boho Chic look we like simple Bohemian necklaces, bracelets and other adornments. Remember, if you want your clothes simple express your style with accessories!

Retro glasses are a big hit this season and we love the ‘John Lennon’ rounded glasses look. We are in love with the curves of classic 60’s and 70’s shades as well…think the top half of a giant heart covering your eyes!

As for the feet go in flip flops, flip flips, jellies or bare should you see fit. For a complete Boho chic ensemble we can only recommend a classic Cowboy style boot should the terrain and temperature call for it.

Fashion Spring and Summer | 2015

So what’s hot for Spring and Summer 2015?  The latest trends for the new season include everything from Suede to Belly Bearing tops…so what should be on the lookout for?

Well one thing is for sure…Bohemian is HOT!  Whether you call it Boho, Gypsy or Hippy…the Bohemian look is what’s in for 2015 spring and summer.  Boho fashion is a bit of an oxymoron considering that original ‘gypsy’ style bohemians didn’t and don’t give a hoot about fashion.  However, Boho-Chic is in and here to stay.

Boho designs this season have a beautiful cross over with Native American / Aztec style which is continuing from the Fall and Winter season.  No Boho outfit is complete without amazing Boho accessories.  Be sure to check out our friends at www.uniquebijouterie.com for the latest in Boho Fashion Accessories!

Floral patterns are hot as well…stepping out in Boho and Hippy style flower power is in this season.

Get ready for lots of denim and fringe as well.  These two seem to go hand and hand and always pop up together in fashion.  We've seen everything from leather to silk fringe on everything from skirts to handbags.

And get prepared for Gingham…Huh?  What’s Gingham…well if you are familiar with the winter’s fashion then you know that Lumberjack shirts were small rage. Think same style with light pattern.  Basically a checkered pattern…or more specifically lightweight plain-woven cotton cloth typically checked in white and a bold color such as red or darker colors.  Think Italian restaurant traditional table cloth!

Be sure to check back often for the hottest items coming this season.

Fashion Accessories for Spring and Summer | 2015

Soooo…Spring and Summer 2015, we all have seen what was on the runways in the form of clothing and shoes (lots of sneakers with dresses this season)…but what about Fashion Accessories.   

So now let’s talk fashion accessories.  Accessories are anything that can adorn the body and enhance style, considering the outfit or not.  We say that simply due to the fact that SUMMER is finally approaching…or so we hope!  So as the outfits become smaller, defining yourself and sense of style with accessories becomes more imperative!

Let’s take a look at what’s hot and trending.

For starters, we all know that Bohemian is HOT right now, whether you call it Boho-Chic, Gypsy, Hippy or otherwise…there is no denying the huge impression that the Bohemian look and style had at all the top fashion design houses this year…and that included last season as well.  Lots of flower power, leather / suede, fringe and many other things BOHO!

So be on the lookout for lots of beautiful Boho accessories to adorn your body.  This summer we imagine lots of light shawls with floral or Aztec print at the beach with adornments of leather and waterproof metallic or even plastics in the form of jewelry.

Geometric shapes and almost ‘Picasso-esque’ type designs were ever prevalent.  Going one step beyond we saw lots and lots and lots of mismatched gatherings.  Not just in color but in style, shape, metallic tones and everything imaginable.

Especially in Europe we saw many designers that had square and short earrings on one ear and long ovals on the other (as a very simplified example of the magnificent mismatching that was taking place).  This concept will definitely make observers take a second glance.

So this season, don’t be afraid to mix and match your jewelry and don’t be over concerned with matching metal, style or anything else involved!

One thing that is certain as well is that all the magnificent additions to the fashion jewelry world were overly in view as well.  Arm Cuffs, Palm Cuffs, Midi-Rings and the likes to include Ring Bracelets and Ear Cuffs were present everywhere!

For more information on Palm Cuffs check out our other article here: Palm Cuff Bracelet Trend

Chokers are back, but they should be big and fancy…

The handbag is back!  Classic handbags of strong character made a return for the new season.  Fashion seems to be taking a lesson from history and giving us back our mobile life supports and cutting back on the teeny tiny clutches and such.  Get out and get you a huge fringed bag today!  Of course the essentials are covered in the bags we saw and some still stay small.  Favorites to keep a lookout for include postal style and shoulder bags that inculcate the Bohemian styles.

So have fun this season spicing up your accessories and be safe in the sun!

Headphones as an Accessory

Over-the-ear headphones are the hottest new way to accessorize your outfits. Of course, the on-ear sets are a clear and crisper way to listen to music, but of course that is not a requirement for high fashion. There are so many amazing new styles out there to mix and match into your wardrobe. Not the teeny tiny ear-buds that come with your smartphone, these over-the-head padded headsets, are making a statement and are here to stay.

Thanks to the popularity of the I-Pod, I-Phone and later other MP3 players, smartphones and especially Dr. Dre and his Beats headphones.  These little gems are now just as much a part of a wardrobe as any other accessory.

Headphones these days come in a plethora of sizes, shapes, styles and colors.  Be sure to have several on hand to mix and match with your daily wardrobe and don’t be afraid to spend a little extra on that special noise cancelling pair you've been eyeballing to keep down the daily commute, noisy neighbors or whatever is disturbing you from getting your Zen on!
