Summer is officially here! As we approach the hot summer days and nights we have great inspiration from this seasons runway looks. Of course not all fashionistas can afford these looks but they are great sources of inspiration. Above I included some looks from Forever21 that can help you included that 70s style, stripes and tribal prints in your wardrobe. I personally own the first two items myself. The grey and white striped maxi dress I pair with strappy brown sandals and a braided belt. And the printed skirt pairs great with an over sized tank and brown or black strappy sandals.  Don't be afraid to take chances with your wardrobe and search places that you wouldn't normally look to.

Fall 2010 Trends

This fall designers took inspiration from past decades; the 50's, 60's, and 70's. I have to say that even though I live in Texas and we have a long way to cooler weather, I am anticipating this upcoming season. The classic lines and staple worthy pieces are pure inspiration and will last for many seasons to come. This shopping season I will definitely purchase some classic pieces over the more trendier ones that will only last one season.

From the 50's we see pencil skirts, cropped sweaters and beautiful sheath dresses; from the 60's we see A- line skirts and beautiful prints. One of my all time favorite trends from this fall were the 70's inspired looks on  runways like Chloe. Silk blouses, wide leg trousers, slouchy boots and the return of camel toned outerwear will all be present on the streets. And who can forget the ultimate accessory, White tights/leggings. Who will be brave enough to try this trend. Fashionising featured a few styling tips on how to rock the white tights trend here. What are some of your favorite fall trends?
