KEY LOOK S/S 2014 - PART 1

I always get somewhat excited when fashion week comes around. It's that one time in the year where we can admire all the latest collections of the best designers across the world. Trends are always overlooked, overworn and sometimes misunderstood. This year on the catwalk, the classics striked hard. A return on old favorites and classic cuts came rushing back to the runway in full force.

BLACK ON BLACK

How can anyone go wrong? Black has always been the quintessential color to create that effortless yet stylish look. Whether it's worn for a casual encounter or for some extravagent event, black is always a winner. This classic shade seems to never go out of style, and will reappear for years to come. Many designers through this season's fashion week have pulled together breathtaking pieces. Looking forward to seeing what comes up in stores over the holidays.  

SPORTSWEAR

A new trend that seems to be storming the catwalk this season is sportswear. This year has marked a new trend for everything sports related. Celebrities, models, musicians and other influencial parties have created a buzz on all that surrounds nutrition and health. Even designer Stella McCartney created a full line, Addidas by Stella McCartney, touching all essentials for a proper workout. Did you hear that? We can officially train in style. 

METALLICS

Metalics, metalics and more metalics. This trend has made it's appearance before, but it's coming back full force and everyone seems to be loving it. This season, unlike in the past, the metallic fabrics used were more subdued than usual. This look showcases a strong and empowering personality, creating pieces that women should possess in their closets. 

OVERSIZED

Oversized pieces can be difficult to wear. Unless 6'0 feet tall like most of the models wearing them, these items aren't ideal for smaller individuals like myself. Then again, the designers managed to piece together effortless looks perfect for this upcoming spring. An overload of oversized jackets and knits seem to be what we're expecting in stores for next season.
