Fashion Trends? WILL Pick Best Answer!
Model4Ever<3 asked: What are going to be the fashion trends for Spring/Summer 2008?? Tell everything lol. Oh, and are biig/over-sized sungless still “in”? Btw. I have more of a preppy, cute girly style. So just please tell me tha fashion trends?=]
Omgosh I have the same style!
Big sunglasses are way still in! Just super bright shades, like yellow or red
Skinny jeans with flats and a graphic tee shirt, or a elaborate vintage top
Bright graphic jewlery
Lots of the 80s stuff is coming back in, but I don’t like the flowing wide no shape shirts… ew lol
ribbons in hair, that’s pretty much the same as 2007 as with makeup and stuff
Oh but makeup is going toward a fresh, cleaner look more natural and sheer… beachy :>
Good luck!
the trends will be like fluorescents and like big poofey stuff..like sleeves and pants and things..

Darling, oversized sunglasses are always in. That’s one rule to remember. Some more before I begin:
Never wear more than two trends at once. I know you are probably sick of hearing this but, unless you’re Rihanna, you will look absurdly ridiculous, seriously. What if all trends died? Would you still be able to make an outfit? The true test of a fashionista is how well you are able to pull together an amazing outfit that speaks volumes about you under any circumstances.
Never wear something unless it looks good on you. Also sick of hearing? Good, it means its slowly being embedded.
So…lets say you fall in love with some outfit or trend that happens to be too overly trendy with out you meaning it to be? Who cares…go for it. Just remember, add a twist to it. Give it something not so in style (like the shoes or accessories or top or skirt or whatever) to show its your own. Okay, on to the trends!
1. Bright colors. We saw it this fall, but now that its spring you might find it easier to embrace. Saturated hues like hot pink (which you might really like), oranges, greens, and yellows are everywhere. And they look beautiful,
2. Tribal. I love this trend. Think African art, simply beautiful. While a tribal print dress is gorgeous (btw maxi dresses are in too), I really love tribal jewlery. Kind of boho, kind of one with nature, very creative. Also, Safari will be big too. Try to incorporate “modern safari.”
3. Eco-friendly, and I’m not only saying this because I happen t be into eco-conscienceness. Lots of brands and designers have eco friendly options, proving you can look great and be great at the same time.
4. Geometric jewlery. I also love this. Think hard shapes like squares or circles in interesting formations (idk if I’m explaining this right). Modern meets nature.
5. Crazy, wild shoes. Balenciaga and Prada come to mind first, and they really went wild with their shoes. Either very modern or looking like a garden on your feet, these shoes are STANDOUTS. I saw that Betsey Johnson makes a really affordable pair (&100, think) at BP Nordstrom.
6. Ombre. Not my favorite, but a trend. Two different color tones mixing into one.
7. Artsy. I love this trend, but sometimes I think it gets ugly. Muted (the kind I don’t like) you can buy blues & grays, wild (love) is different crazy colored brushstrokes on your garment.
8. 70’s. The 60’s was big last Spring, now the 70’s is taking over. Think wide-leg jeans, flowy clothes, and hippie prints. Racheal Zoe mentioned she was big on the 70’s, and her influence is readily apparent on Hollywood starlets, so watch her clients.
9. Coral lips. Very big, I heard its like the red lip trend of the fall. Easy to incorporate into spring wardrobes.
10. Makeup as masterpieces. Also, the focus on the eye. Makeup this season was wild, Vogue’s spring models showcased shocking lipstick colors. Look at Sephora’s issue entitled “Beauty as Art” or whatever, I forgot.
11. Wedge Gladiator shoes. While the gladiator look has stayed strong trough many seasons, now be daring with some height.
Well, thats all I can think of (yes, I just typed all of that without the use of any reference, aren’t I good?) Want a uber-trendy magazine? try people stylewatch, esp. the one with Kate Hudson entitled Spring Style. Hope this helps!!! =)
