Hello Gorgeous!
Summer 2014 clothing trends for the fashionista in all of us. By Sarah Polyakov.
For anyone who has ever asked me about my philosophy on beauty, they will remember that I believe all women are beautiful and each woman has a one-of-a-kind beauty that is unique to her.
But, I also believe that each woman’s innate beauty is enhanced through the clothing and accessories that she wears. When women are dressed in fashionable ensembles that also make them feel good, they enhance their innate beauty and radiate confidence.
Summer has arrived and this season’s trends offer some wonderful choices for assembling outfits that are completely you! I am happy to report that the trends for the summer of 2014 are both vibrant and multifaceted. Most of the offerings for this season are a hit and highly wearable for everyone. Many of the summer trends can be matched with pieces we already own, and they have arrived in stores near you.
Some of the delightful offerings for this summer include lightweight tunics with boho embroidery, nautically themed striped shirts; floaty dresses rendered in tropical florals; tailored t-shirts, chic shrugs, and pieces shaded in a rainbow of decidedly subdued pastels.
Then there is the array of accessories being offered for the fashionista in each of us. This summer’s accessory offering is bold and beautiful and each piece takes center stage. These include standout pieces like chunky tribal necklaces, glamorous metal belts, elegantly dyed straw hats, and rough-cut stone earrings in glorious shades of greens. Put on a pair of artisan leather sandals, and voila, your summer ensemble is complete.
The best part of it all is that there is something for everyone since most of the summer trends are both versatile and flattering.
Incorporating Trends Into Your Closet
One of the best parts about this season is that we are seeing a lot of mixing and matching of varied textures and styles. Because of this, freshening up your closet with some new pieces will be a breeze.
Why not try one of this summer’s boho tunics with your favorite pair of jeans? How about adding a pair of chunky earrings and finishing your ensemble with some tribal-inspired leather sandals? This combination, which is infinitely flattering, can easily be worn to so many different casual events, while still being a stand out.
For the evening, I love the idea of dressing up one of this season’s tropical floral sundresses. Pair this type of dress with a chiffon shrug or lightweight bolero and a pair of art deco inspired earrings just to mix it up a bit. Add a pair of dressy sandals with heels and you are ready to go to an evening of wine tasting or on a sunset cruise.
