STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Trendy In Tribal

July 16th, 2015 at 2:00am

I believe that I am honestly speaking for all of us when I say that we are all constantly looking for ways to spice up our wardrobes. We are all looking for that one trend to tackle and call our own. The answer to all of our style prayers lies in the current tribal print trend. This trend is so much fun, and it is perfect for every occasion! I have noticed that the new focus is on tribal printed jogger pants. So what do you say? Are you ready to take on tribal printed jogger pants?

Whenever I see tribal print in the stores, I immediately think back to the history of this trend. Tribal print is new to us, but it has been around for a very long time. This funky and fabulous trend originates back to Africa and Indonesia. West African and Indonesian tribes have been wearing printed pieces for thousands of years. Every country has its own pattern, meaning no two patterns are identical. What I think is fascinating is the fact there is such an endless variety of tribal prints and that they are often times quite colorful is what is keeping this trend in fashion today.

Tribal print is even being worn by celebrities like Rihanna, Solange and Kourtney Kardashian. Movie stars are also wearing this trend. Caprice Winters from G.B.F. wore pieces that were bold and colorful. One of the bodycon skirts that she wore in the movie stuck out to me because it was tribal print and black and white. The print was unlike anything that I have ever seen in the stores before, and the texture of the print was scruffy looking. Whether you love mixedbohemian, abstract or funky tribal prints, this trend is perfect for every wardrobe this summer.

So how does one exactly pull off the tribal print trend? I recommend taking notes on this Fashionista’s look for one of many ways. A basic white ruffled camisole complements her tribal printed jogger pants so well and doesn’t take the viewer’s focus away from her pants. Even though they aren’t brightly colored, her pants still stand out because they have multiple patterns in the design. The fact that this Fashionista’s pants are neutral colored makes it easier for her to wear them wherever she pleases. She could even wear them to a job interview if she wanted. The ruffles on her camisole help dress up her look and her black wedge sandals are the perfect addition for a dressy look. Overall, this Fashionista’s look is effortless and fabulous.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I love jogger pants in the summertime because they are so comfortable and stylish. I love tribal print because I feel like it helps elevate my look, and it makes me stand out from the crowd. I also love that you can pretty much wear tribal print any and everywhere.”
