Fashion Friday...

This Fashion Friday it's all about the best trends for the spring/summer. Pantsuits, crop top and pant/skirt outfits and patterned prints are seen everywhere from red carpet events, the runway and at premiers. Even certain colours like cobalt blue and coral are ruling the fashion scene this season. Take a look at what the in trends are this season...

PANTSUITS

I've mentioned pantsuits quite a few times in my blog posts because I love them so much. They are so trendy and cute and make anyone look classy and fresh. The fashionable girls above all look fabulous in their colourful pantsuits. Shailene Woodley wore an adorable beige vest pantsuit with white tennis shoes for CinemaCom in Las Vegas. Her short pixie cut and tomboyish outfit pair really well together.
Emma Watson wore a tuxedo-esque pantsuit to David Letterman. Paired with black slingback pumps and a pulled back hairstyle and she shines bright.
Selena Gomez wore a similar tuxedo style pantsuit in a bold red colour to We Day. She too added a black pump to the ensemble that allows the suit to pop.
Lorde wore a bubble gum pink pantsuit with a black crop top underneath when she preformed her set at this years Coachella. Her signature big hair and dark lipstick 'goth' up the preppy pink look enough for her personal style.

PATTERNED CROP TOPS AND MATCHING BOTTOMS

Matching patterns and prints are extremely in this season. Not only are they adorable but they're extremely easy to throw on and not worry about matching your outfit. Whether it's a patterned pant set or printed skirt ensemble, you can't go wrong with a matching top and bottom this summer. 

Jade Thirlwall from Little Mix fashioned a cute black and white aztec printed crop top and pant set and matched it with solid black pumps. She looks very modern and chic and ready to hit the stage. 

Cher Lloyd sported an adorable lace blue and white floral crop top and skirt ensemble with white strappy heals. The british singer adds a rocky edge to the look by showing off her awesome tats.

Selena Gomez flaunts her fit midriff with this patterned turquoise blue crop top and pant outfit. She as well adds white heels to the look and throws in a cute pair of sunglasses for a perfect summery look. 

MEDIUM-SHORT HAIR

First it was all about the short pixie cut. Everyone was cutting off their long locks to get the adorable Twiggy like hairstyle. This season it's all about shoulder length/medium-short hair. I personally love this style. Don't get me wrong I love long hair, but this shorter look is perfect for the summer time - especially when you want to hit the beach. This style looks good straight, like Kylie Jenner's hair or with a few waves like Emma Roberts and Lily Collins do's. Or you could add lots of curls similar to Ashley Benson's look. Love this new style! 

COBALT BLUE

One of my favourite colour trends this season is the ever so bold and gorgeous cobalt blue. This is different from a royal blue or navy blue - it's much brighter and stands out incredibly. Uma Thurman looks fabulous in this floor length, figure hugging cobalt blue gown. Cobalt blue is trending in not only clothes but accessories too. A bold chunky necklace goes great with a white outfit to add a pop of colour. Cobalt blue nails look adorable for the upcoming spring weather. Pair cobalt blue heels with your ensemble to wow the crowd. This colour is definitely a must have this season. 

CORAL

Coral is another trending colour this season that is so beautiful. This is definitely a go-to colour for the summer time - the bold colour against tan skin gives your skin a great glow, like Doutzen Kroes has modelled in her coral bikini. Emma Stone fashions a cute coral mini dress which she paired with bright yellow pumps (awesome choice.) Coral blazers are also a great addition for you summer wardrobe like the one Blake Lively is sporting. One of my favourite lipstick colours is coral just like Cara Delevingne's bright lip. This colour can be worn in many different ways and is an absolute must have this season! 

How To Dress Like A Pretty Little Liar...

Pretty Little Liars not only has cute boys, a creepy stalker and a mysterious story line - it is also full of amazing fashion. All four girls have their own unique style from sporty to edgy, preppy to chic. You have to wonder, how can these girls have an alleged 'stalker' after them and they still have time to look fabulous even when they are going to bed? (The answer to this question is a make-up artist and a little TV magic, but we'll just pretend they are that perfect.) If you're like me, Emily, Spencer, Aria and Hannah are constantly inspiring my own personal style and I really enjoy watching how they put outfits together. Anyone can re-create the liars style from their own personal closet. Here are some tips on how you can dress to impress just like the four friends, without spending a dollar.

  Emily Fields

Emily Fields is the sporty one of the group. Her style mostly consists of jean jackets, tank tops, coloured pants and rocky band shirts. For this look I wore maroon skinny jeans, a black tank top and an acid wash jean jacket. I paired this with black combat boots. You see her wearing a lot of converse running shoes and boots. Emily is very tom-boyish so she usually wears minimal eye make-up - usually just a light brown eye shadow, a bit of eyeliner and some mascara. Top it with a bit of blush on the apples of the cheek and a neutral coloured lipstick and she's ready to go to the pool. She's a swimmer so her hair is mostly down in natural waves - for my look I did the half up half down look and just let my hair go natural. As for jewellery, Emily usually doesn't wear much. She will wear a long chain or a dog-tag necklace just to add a little flavour to her outfit. I love Emily's look because it's comfortable and simple yet still stylish and modern.

Spencer Hastings  

 Spencer Hastings is the smart one of the group and she definitely shows this through the way she dresses. She is always done up very classy and professional looking and looks as if she's always ready to make a serious business deal with 'A' at any moment. Spencer's style consists of a lot of vintage clothing - collared shirts, blazers, blouses and cardigans are most likely in her closet. For my outfit I wore a collared shirt with gold buttons down the middle, jeans that are rolled up passed the ankles and brown oxford type shoes. Spencer usually has her hair naturally down or in a headband, which I did here, or she has her hair up in a pony tail for when she's having a crazy study session. Her make-up is not far from Emily's, which is quite natural looking, mostly browns. She never usually wears anything heavy on the lip, just a neutral or pinky colour, or even a clear lipgloss. As for jewellery, a must for Miss Spencer is a watch, so she always knows the time. Again, like Emily, she doesn't go too over the top on the jewellery, she keeps it quite simple. Spencer's style is always smart and trendy. She takes the "strict uniform" look and turns it into something sleek and upscale.


 Aria Montgomery 

 The only way to describe Aria Montgomery's style is fun and edgy. She tends to layer A LOT, and she wears things that are very bohemian and indie. Aria is not afraid to throw different patterns and colours together that wouldn't necessarily go together, but she always pulls them off amazingly. For my outfit, I wore a cat faced dress from Top Shop, with black knee socks and black studded ankle boot heels. Aria's make-up is a little edgier - with a dark smokey eye and heavy contouring. For hair, she has basically done anything and everything whether it's up in a high pony tail or down in loose curls. I put my hair up in a high bun, leaving some pieces down to frame my face, and finished it with a black bandana. For jewellery, Aria wears quite 'out there' pieces such as a spider necklace or crazy feather earrings. I wore a bunch or silver bangles, big rings and brown circle-shaped earrings. Aria's fashion sense may seem crazy and over-the-top to some people, but if you have the confidence, you can rock this cool style just like her.

Hannah Marin 

Hannah Marin's style is very girly, classy and dressy. She wears a lot of lace, ruffles and printed dresses. Coloured blazers are quite popular with her style. For my outfit I paired a cream lace dress with a teal blue blazer and blue heels. You'll always see Hannah wearing some type of pump, heel or high boot. Chunky jewellery, such as big necklaces, rings and hoop earrings are Hannah's ultimate go-to accessory. I accessorized with a long chain cross necklace, hoop earrings (which you can't see) a jewelled bracelet and some knuckle rings. Hannah usually wears her hair down and curled most of the time. She will sometimes wear her hair up in a messy but cute pony tail if she's having a hard day. As for make-up, I would say Miss Marin is the girl who wears the most out of all of the liars. She usually goes for lots of eye make-up to give her blue eyes a nice pop. Hannah also tends to wear a lot of black eye liner in which I don't usually go for but with her eyes, she can definitely pull it off.

Eight Ways To Wear Leggings...

I don't know about anyone else, but in this cold, wintery weather, my favourite go-to outfits at the moment are leggings paired with just about anything. The beneficial thing about leggings is you can pair them with so many different accessories, wear them in any season and they are extremely comfy - bonus! There are millions of different ways you can sport leggings, but I'll be focusing on eight main different ways...

8 Oh That Blazer Just Don't Faze Her

 

Hilary Duff looks smart and classy, dressing up her leggings with a white v-neck, black blazer and pumps. This outfit is perfect to wear to work, a party or - if you have a book coming out anytime soon, a book signing. Accessorize by adding dangly earrings and a long chain and you're picture perfect ready. You rock Hilary, don't ever change... 

7 Be A Flirt In A Light T-Shirt

 Whether you throw on a a short fitted t-shirt or a long oversized off the shoulder t-shirt, like Lauren Conrad, this is a simple yet stylish way to wear your leggings. This look is great for running out to do some errands or, if you throw on a pair of heels like Lauren did, you automatically dress the look up and are ready for a night out for dinner with the girls. This outfit is so adorable that it will definitely make anyone else in the room run for the hills...

6 Brown Boots Get's You Hoots

One of my favourite ways to wear leggings is with brown boots. Tall brown knee boots are very in this winter season, especially with black leggings. Wear them with a smart fitted trench coat, like how Pippa Middleton did and you'll be ready to royally face that harsh winter weather in style.  

5 Give Her Hugs In those Uggs 

Okay admit it, we have all done this look at one point or another. Many call this look a fashion "don't" but I say, "why not?" Wearing leggings with Uggs is comfy and warm and I don't care what you say but I like it! Olivia Wilde showed the haters that you can still make this get-up look fashionable by adding a cute jean jacket and pink scarf. Even with this casual outfit, the paps still went wild taking her photo. 

4 Getting Slim At The Gym 

Who says you can't look cute and fashionable at the gym? If you look good you feel good, so dress to impress even if you're going to sweat it out. Ashley Benson looks trendy with coral running shoes, a matching bag, along with a purple work-out shirt. Leggings are great to wear when working out because they are easy, comfy and make your legs look long - you'll be ready to strut your stuff on that treadmill, and that's no pretty little lie.  

3 Leave The House In A Sexy Blouse 

Pairing a smart and simple white blouse with leggings is basic and easy yet looks elegant and chic. Selena Gomez's ensemble looks movie premiere ready with that gorgeous black necklace and cute pastel pink pumps. Wear this outfit to a business meeting or dinner party and all eyes will be on you, naturally. 

2 Make The Crowds Stop In A Cute Crop Top 

In the summer time, the perfect way to show off your toned and tanned tummy is with a crop top and tight leggings. Miley Cyrus looks adorable and chic with this loose grey striped crop top, leggings and patterned tennis shoes. Whether you're going to the beach or just out for a walk in the warm sun, this outfit is so simple, fun and trendy that we can't stop looking at it.

1 Don't Be Sad, Wear Some Plaid 

Plaid shirts, whether tied around your waist or used as an actual shirt always look fantastic with leggings. Lea Michele's outfit is so bold and striking, yet simple and to the point. Both plaid shirts and leggings are so comfortable, but look amazing and fashionable paired together - two gleeful benefits in one! Add the black high-heeled knee boots and you have the perfect look to hit the town with.
