Trend Report - "Femculine"


Audrey, meet Aerosmith. Not really, but you get the point. Take your Breakfast at Tiffany's inspiration and let it mesh with your rock inspired pieces. One trend that we will not bid farewell anytime soon is the habitual feminine-masculine combo. So, yes, putting a heavy studded belt on top of your ultra feminine Isabella Louis skirt will definitely work. Do not be afraid to experiment with the harder, grungier side of your fashion personality. Go for leather, biker gloves, chains and studs but do not lose touch with your femininity. A studded belt on top of a floral print or a ballet inspired tulle skirt can do wonders.
This “femculine” trend does not just reside in accessories. We have all become familiar with the ‘boyfriend’ clothes. This means your super skin tight mini dress will look pleasing under your slightly oversized, cuffed at the wrists boyfriend blazer. It is a beautiful combination actually, and do not fear the heels. Going on with the boyfriend trend, do not fear your boyfriend pants with a lace camisole and a pair of pumps. Now, we do not mean ‘90s baggy because, of course, boyfriends are now wearing skinny jeans, if you’re lucky, that is.
Our suggestion: Obey - forget me not necklace on sale for $70 and let it mesh with your pearls!
