Where Has Summer Gone?

It’s already August and you know what that means, school is coming soon. Which also means that fall clothing is about to start appearing.

Even though it’s about to be August, summer is still going strong. I’m not sure how the other two months have flown by here we are.

Before we dive into fall let’s take a look at this summer and the styles we have seen. This year has been a great year for some new and interesting clothing patterns.

From maxi-dresses to crop tops to kimonos a lot of people are branching out in their style choices.

Both shorter and longer styles of clothing have become popular this year. Even though the lengths aren’t the same, the popularity is.

What’s Popular?

If you haven’t noticed a variety of fruit patterns on your clothes then I don’t know where you’ve been. Cherries and Avocados have taken over the summer!

Every store I step into seems to have a shirt with some form of a fruit interpretation plastered on them. Although I have to admit, it can look cute when it’s paired with the right bottoms.

Another popular item that made an appearance a few years ago is maxi-dresses. Every time I go to a crowded place I see two alternating styles.

One is shorts and a tank top with a possible kimono, and the other is wearing a maxi-dress or skirt. Both are popular and stylish right now.

I personally prefer shorts and a tank top but it’s more about your own preferences.

Sometime neither will work for a person but try and expand your closet!

You should always keep trends in the back of your mind but don’t live by them. They’re more of a safety measure that you can fall back on.

If you can’t find your own style then wear what’s popular. You can never go wrong with a simple cherry shirt or a cute pair of shorts.

How Do You Keep Up With Trends?

There are thousands of blogs out there for you to look through. Overall everyone has varying opinions, but there are usually some similarities.

You can usually find a certain style or clothing item that all the blogs are talking about. If you’re not sure who to look at, research them all.

Don’t stick to one person try to see what everyone is saying. This may seem like a lot of work but with the right keywords, you can find the right blogs for you.

However, if you’re not a blog-reading person then look around you. Check out what others your age are wearing.

If that doesn’t work then just walk into a store or go online and see what the world has to offer. Stores usually keep up with trends so the clothes you buy won’t be that different.

Even if you happen to have a unique style don’t be afraid to wear what you want. Express yourself through what you wear and look like, even if others don’t approve.

You’re wearing it and not them. So get out there, find some cute clothes, and flaunt your personality with the clothes you’re wearing.

Style Is Everything so you should try and find your own! Don’t be afraid to try new things and create a closet that fits you!
