You may have your fair share of linear black and white clothing, denims, tees, and other staples that make sure you are playing safe, but once in a while, you need to let your hair down and unleash the fashion freak in you. That does not mean bizarre. It’s all about favouring the unexpected and un-typical while going with the trend.
1. Patch Up
Perfect for an independent, free-spirited globetrotter with an innate folksy element, patchwork garments never fail to exude a chic, laid-back vibe. Let your outfit tell a story of the journeys you have embarked upon and all its souvenirs and memories. A multi-coloured jumpsuit or tracksuit with an eclectic blend of surface treatments and textures can efficiently put your Monday blues to rest.
Tip: From vintage to summery, let all the prints and patterns of the world gather into one big mess-messy, after all, is the new cool.
2. Asymmetry Is In
Asymmetry is pretty, but asymmetry also symbolises individuality, uniqueness, and makes you stand out. While one-shoulder tops and diagonal-cut hemlines are trending big time, there are more ways to exercise ‘uneven’ creativity. Highlight your facial features with a silky straight or wavy asymmetrical bob that’s shorter on one end at the back of your head and longer on the other. Absolutely fresh and modern.
Tip: take this trend a step further by capitalising on the incredibly chic one earring trend it can be anything from a statement ear cuff, feather or stud to a mismatched set of long and short drops.
3. Talk It Out
Enjoy the freedom of fashion with bold, dramatic, but easy, silhouettes that strike an interesting conversation with the beholder. Whether you are a wild soul, a dreamer or a wanderer, get the words boldly splashed on your ensemble. Pick unconventional, yet practical, silhouettes- like a pair of slouchy bottoms in a breathable cotton fabric, anti-fit linen dress or summer jacket. Stick to cool colour palette- stark white, natural nude, cool aqua, striking teal, lime green, or peach.
4. Freakish Eyewear
Accentuate the theme of individualism by sporting eyewear that might throw the onlooker for a loop. From oversized squares and pentagons, to round frames with floral embellishments and golden glitter, a statement making pair can instantly transform your look from drab to fab. Another striking style is round cat-eye sunnies that combine the two revered designs in one.
