How to be 'Chic & Trendy'

I am loving the trends for 2010. It is still a bit 80s inspired which is more of a reason to fall in love with it. Here's a list of the trends starting in Spring and making their way to Fall and Winter (most of them anyway) and my favorite outfits off the runway, get with the the list, and look Fabulouuuussssssss!

Army Jackets One of my favorite trends for the season. Check out Balmain's fabulous take on the army look



Sheer, Lace and Crochet it doesn't have to be a full outfit, look at Nina Ricci's Skirt with peeping lace at the bottom, it's stunning) Dolce and Gabbana's shoes are to die for. The Prada baga are stunning even though the second looks like a copy of Valentino's Lace bag a couple of years ago. And The cute Reiss T shirt with a pair of jeans and booties would look fab.



Florals Check out Stella Mccartney's Beautiful floral dress.



Stripes They can be risky but if worn properly? You have the ultimate chic outfit. My favorite striped outfits is from the Givenchy runway (below).



Black and White Hermes (below) makes me want to learn tennis so I can wear the outfit. It's beautiful.



Neutrals It's always Chloe's neautral or nude colours that draw my attention the most.



Futuristic Not so keen on this trend, but Alexander McQueen pulled quite the show with this trend.



Printed or Patterned Pants Dries Van Noten did quite a job with prints and patterns.



Underwear (Inside out)Sexy feminie corsets and in some cases bras? It's not a trend for everyone that's for sure. (Below from left to right: Jean Paul Gaultier, Loewe, Christian Dior)



Drapes I'm a big big fan of draped clothing especially dresses. I find it flattering, fits all body types, and it's so feminine, the idea of having a piece of cloth draped over your body. Especially if it has any sort of embellishments such as Givenchy below.



All those trends along side Denim, Denim, Denim, Biker Jackets, Hot Pants, High Slits, Boyfriend blazers, Bows and Bunny ears, Wedges, Short nails, bleached eyebrows (I really didn't get the point of that one), gladiator shoes, high waist (hoorahhh), Harem pants, Ruffles, paisleys, fringes, Greek style dresses, one-shoulder/asymmetrical (double hoorah) etc..
