STYLE ADVICE: Making Trends Your Own

Countless of times on Project Runway Heidi Klum has said, “One day you’re in and the next, you’re out.” I love trends as much as the next fashion It girl, but Klum puts the constant struggle with them into words perfectly. One day a trendy piece is all the rage, and the next we look back at what we wore and cringe (hello, platform flip flops). The key is making trends your own so that they can become timeless pieces in your wardrobe.

This Fashionista did exactly that. Denim has been a standout trend for a few seasons now and lately, sherpa fur-lined denim jackets have been spotted everywhere. Knowing she could make this trend more her speed, this Fashionista opted for retro style with tan faux fur-lined denim. The jacket fits in with her personal sense of style, so she can rock her version of the trendy piece forever. She paired her killer jacket with a timeless sweater, which is also extremely on-trend since stripes are having a major moment right now.

Finishing off the look with a bang, this Fashionista incorporated one final trend, a pair of statement boots. The bootie trend has proven it is here to stay and this Fashionista owns it by rocking a very unique pair. The gold accents and chunky soles are another take on the statement bootie trend and adda an edge to this Fashionista’s outfit.

The main takeaway from this Fashionista’s chic ensemble is to take trends and make them your own. By adding your own flair to current fashion crazes, you can build looks that are both trendy and timeless and never cringeworthy.
