The streets are proud of you. You are a fashion enigma; exuding confidence and class. But one thing remains- you’re yet to try these five fashion trends that can easily scale up your appearance whether in the workplace or on a casual outing. Here are the five trending fashionable items that you need to grab.
Raffia Bags
Raffia bag
They are the go-to vacation bags that scream summer. Made from dried raffia palm tree leaves, the piece is woven to create a unique ethnic appeal. Whether you rock the tote or bucket raffia bag, you’re contributing to sustainability while making a fashion statement.
White Dress
Everyone needs a little white dress because ‘it’s getting hot in here,’ no thanks to Nelly (by the way, congrats to Nelly and Ashanti on their bouncing baby boy). In the heat of summer, a white dress works perfectly to cool your body. But in parts of Africa where it’s raining now, white dress is a fashion risk. Also, ladies who know that time of the month when you can’t do white- won’t do white.
Capri Pants
These pants are for folks who love to dress down. Indeed, old pants can be cropped to look like Capri- it’s all good. It’s rumoured to be the greatest threat to dresses and skirts. Historians claim that it was launched 75 years ago by the German designer, Sonja de Lennart while Audrey Hepburn popularised the trend. You can be a trendsetter in your hood with this item.
Coloured Jeans
Ladies, be the cynosure of all eyes by immersing your taste in jeans in a variety of colours. Emancipate yourself from the shackles of dark coloured jeans and try some peach, lilac, pink and light blue. For guys, light blue is an all-time hit but you can swag things up with white or tan.
Linen
Yes, it’s true. Linen is back! Breathable and elegant, linen shirts are a sure pathway to looking like husband material. And for women on a masculine fashion streak, soft toned linen shirts are magical- giving you a respectable look.
