Are We Going Back To 80s?

It seems like we are going backwards and welcoming old trends in a new way! 2016 was all about the 70s flare and 90s over-sized staple. It was a mixture of bohemian with cool and effortless style. Everything was way too over sized and had a flare, breezy and airy feel! Well, the 70s trend started from the end of 2014 and still continuing but this year the 70's trend was tried out with a twist. Trends of 90s like slip dress, oversized denim jacket and chokers were added to the flowy and bohemian style of 70s. But since couple of months the runway shows were moving on from the 70s and trying to bring back new silhouettes that were long forgotten. A fitted look with twist of 80s! Everything seems to be grungy, punk and dark for the fashion industry for couple of months!

I don't know whether it 's my misconception or not but I feel fashion world is turning in to more Gothic style and embracing the 80's nowadays! However recently  the 80's trend  is more refined and polished, compared to the laid back look that were adopted during  1980's. It's more sophisticated with a touch of grunge!


Did you notice that as well? 




Versace Resort 2017
The fitted  and more polished look was what Versace resort 2017 show adopted. Where the silhouttes were simple, sophisticated but the theme colour was black! Colourblock bags shoes and jackets were seen the most!

Tip:Go for monochromatic look by opting for head to toe black in clean shapes and silhouettes and add a colour block shoes!

Tip: Wear leather with pastel staples this year!

The geeky chic trend just started recently after the Gucci Resort 2017 show and we are thankful that we can move from the bohemian trend and embrace the trend of early 80s.

Tip: Go for wide frame geeky glasses, pleated mini skirt and button down shirt and master the school girl look! Make it geeky chic yet edgy by throwing a biker jacket over your shoulder!

If you think animal prints and all the wild things were left out then you are definitely wrong! Most of the resort show portrayed their wild side with animal print faded and colour splattered denim and small frame sunglasses! 

Tip: Wear animal print top with 70s flare denim to bring a twist in your look.  Dont forget to add your small frame sunglasses!

How To Wear Plunging Top Without Looking Inappropriate!

Plunging tops are way too hard to pull off. It requires a lot of courage and confidence to wear plunging top. There were lots of plunging necklines spotted on the runway and I know that many of us are looking forward to accepting and embracing this trend. I know many of you are thinking that this particular trend is solely for the models and bloggers with great body and confidence. But trust me, It's just requires a lit bit of sartorial knowledge and good dose of confidence to master this plunging neckline trend! Trust me on this....So here is what I have chosen to make this particular plunging top look spectacular.
Who says you cannot wear sequence during day time? So if you were to put on this particular plunging top how would you style it during day time ? How would you wear it if you were to hangout with your female friends? It's easy you have to look for sober yet stylish options like this beige maxi skirt! Earlier I have mentioned that you need sartorial knowledge to look great in plunging neckline top. So look appropriate in this trend go for layering piece! Don't go for something that would totally cover your plunging top. You might go for something that would give a peek into that beautiful sequence top. A sleeveless waistcoat could do that for you. So what colours should you look for when your plunging top has lots of colours and has sequence? Go for light colours and make sure that your waist coat has clean and straight shape. You don't want lots of frills and ruffles when you have so much drama going on underneath your waistcoat! Wear this with beautiful dangling pearl earrings. As for shoes animal print would look great since your skirt and waistcoat are sober and simple. Finish the look with a statement bag! I choose this brown clutch in clean stripes which is the hottest trend for SS16.

How To Wear "The Spanish Influenced" Trend of SS2016 In An Unique Way

There were lot of trends that attracted me from Spring Summer 2016. From 70s inspired to Spanish influence to the comeback of 90s every trend of SS16 were a huge hit among the fashion bloggers, experts and real women. I am excited to experiment with all of them. Particularly Spanish influences trends are what I am excited about because overdoing these trends could ruin your look. On the other hand if you play it safe you would just simply blend with the crowd. And that's what all the Fashionholics' do not want. We love to stand out from the crowd! This Spanish Influenced trend can be divided in to different categories. 

So here are some fabulous Spanish Influenced Trend that were spotted on the runway and check out all the fashion tips below. Shop all the looks here!

Off The Shoulders & Cold Shoulder: As seen in Proenza Schouler this trend is huge come back and everyone from bloggers to street style experts to fashion editors have mastered this look. In that case what you should do stand out from the crowd?
Get The Look: If You Love off the shoulder and make it look different every time you wear then you must read this. I know everyone is literally all over this trend and you want to make it look uniquely "you"! In That case go for off the shoulder top and culottes which has similar patterns on them. Here I have choose clean stripes. Go for floral accessories to brighten your outfit.


Ruffles All Over: As seen in Proenza Schouler this trend is hard to pull off because you dont want to end up looking like you came out of circus. In that case read the "Get The Look".
Get The Look: For those  of you who love ruffles and prints and are looking forward to wear them at the same time this dress could freshen up your look. Go for printed dress that has ruffles and opt ruffle bag and shoe as well. Make sure your outfit has interesting color combos. Here I have chosen pink dress with red shoe. These clashing colors surprisingly looks effortless and stylish. If your outfit has lots of ruffles and tiers on it pick a bag that has less ruffle details because you do not want to risk looking overdressed and creating a fashion disaster. Finish the look with fringe earrings and curved bracelet.
Fashion Tip: Ruffles Accessories + Clashing Colours

Cape: Oscar De La Ranta brought the Spanish heritage on Runway of SS2016 in the form of laces, ruffles and capes. Checkout how to wear capes below.
Get The Look: Going slouchy and looking stylish could be a hard task. Here I opted for floral details cape and lace flare pant to make the particular outfit below look romantic. Since the outfit has similar  sober colours and patterns, I added colourful accessories. Ballet flats are back this 2016 and nothing looks chic than a floral printed ballet. Finish the look with envelope clutch and statement earrings.


Feminine Ruffle Dress: These look were seen in Alexander Macqueen, Proenza Schouler, Oscar De La Ranta. What I love about this dress is that it looks very much from the 18th century and still can be worn in the modern times!
Get The Look: A dress can look girly without having floral print on it. Opt for Grecian inspired long ruffle dresses or ruffle dresses with one shoulder. Since you have bare neck pretty pastel necklaces are must. Opt for SS16's hottest trend: mules! Finish the look with tote bag and floral bejeweled band.

Longer and Larger Sleeves: These year is all about experimenting with sleeves and for SS16 it was all about larger sleeves.
Get The Look: Bell sleeves looks even better when worn with flare pants. These unexpected pairing can look a total fashion disaster if you don't follow this simple trick. Play with your shoes and bag by opting for matching shoes and bag in prints. Finish the look with dangling earrings.

3D Petals: Petals are in! Even though floral prints are still going strong, petal print has been tried and showed off by many celebs and bloggers.
Get The Look: Go head to toe "monochromatic petal" by opting for petal top and petal skirt. Toughen up your romantic look by opting for edgy and dark accessories! How about chokers and fringes?
Fashion Tip: Petals + Edgy Accessories

Pick Of The Day: Floral Printed Chambray Shirt

Hi Fashionholics!!!

How was your weekend and what was your weekend outfit?

Spring/summer fashion is always so fun and vibrant and one thing that is adopted more than anything is floral. However I thought recreating my style and go for something unexpected like floral printed chambray shirt and metallic knife pleated skirt. 

Read on to know more about this creative outfit of mine.

What I love doing is rolling my sleeves up above my elbow cause it makes it look more laid back and relaxed.


I bought this chambray shirt from one of the store in Bangladesh called Artisan. Why I bought this? I love everything about this shirt ....the details, the front pockets, the Peter Pan collar and ofcourse the tiny floral print.


Wearing shiny fabric during the day takes a lot of gut. I wore this Forever 21 knife pleated skirt with mustard shoe to tone it down a little bit.....and it looks fabulous!


What I love about this collar is I can wear necklaces of every shape and style. So I went for this multi colour one that looks pretty over my floral printed chambray shirt.


Long satchel bag is so me! The powder blue bag unexpectedly matches the whole outfit.

So, how do you wear your chambray shirt this spring? And what other things are on the top of your spring fashion list? Let me know in the comments below. 
Xoxo.
