Cargo pants

Sources: AngelineMelin illustrations and NizzaGirl

With so many girls wearing either skinny jeans or leggings when it comes to trousers, it’s pretty refreshing to see some girls in cargo pants. More often than not, these are paired with shirts and/or blazer for that instant pretty look. Love them with chunky heels, ballerina pumps or richelieu lace ups.This is the perfect opportunity to talk to you about Angeline. She is a well know (in France anyway) french fashionholic with, not only an addiction to fashion, but also an amazing gift. Unlike most fashion bloggers she doesnt take pictures of herself or post pictures of others wearing the latest fashion craves, she illustrates them, and does an amazing job at it. It’s cute and quirky and if you don’t know her, then you should definitely check out her website or do one better grap yourself a copy of her book.

A piece of PVC

Source: Picture reblogged (via sundaygirl)

There was a time, when we would associate pvc with Britney’s “one more time” era or something a hooker would wear. But once Kate Moss was spotted wearing a pair of black pvc pants nicely tucked into a pair of knee length boot, worn with a simple black T-shirt and a lace op, that was it. Pvc were back in fashion, if there ever were.

Here some of the Web’s Bet Dressed are sporting pvc pants/jackets and for the more daring skirts.

Trench and jeans

Sources: TheArtoftheTrench and Next-Trend

Over the years the trench has become not only more feminine but also more youthful. A decade earlier, the same phenomena occurred with jeans, making them today the base of practically every outfit for any event. Today, these two items have become a match made in heaven, making outfit look effortless, youthful yet still looking well put together and elegant.

Love the idea of destroy and/or boyfriend jeans paired with a very feminin trench and heels or even ballerina pumps.

An outfit that will make any woman look kick ass and elegant at the same time.

Open shirts over T-shirts

Sources: (via fuckyeahskinnybitch) from Lisaplace

I’m a huge fan of men’s clothes on women, especially shirts. Over the last year plaid shirts and denim shirts have made a huge comeback and recently the it girls of the web have started wearing them over T-shirts an leaving them open. They have replaced cardigans or they are simply part of a layered outfit. Personally I think it looks great!
