My Favourite Fall Fashion Trends 2014 - Part 1

Hi everyone,

Here's my first instalment post on the A/W 2014 Fashion Trends. I hope to inspire you and help you prepare your wardrobes to head fashionably into Fall 2014. Some of these trends were constantly highlighted in many of the runway shows e.g Paris Fashion Week, Milan Fashion Week, New York Fashion Week etc.

In this post, I will highlight some of the key colour trends to follow for Fall/ Winter 2014. Not forgetting, I have included my own Styleboard Colour charts and items you may wish to consider to trend these colours for Autumn/ Winter 2014.

1. Vibrant Hues

We often find Fall/ Winter 2014 outfits in darker shades and gloomier colours, but this year, try going bold and bright with vibrant hues.


2. Navy Blue

Always loved the blue and black theme. You do not have to tone down your whole outfit in the same colour but highlight it with accents of Navy Blue to your outfit to trend this colour for Fall.

3. Burgundy / Maroon

Like in previous years where Oxblood was a popular Fall colour, this darker shade of red is a much preferred colour for this year's " red" trend.

4. Orange

I have always leaned towards burnt orange and mandarin orange in many of my outfit or accessory choices as it brings out the glow in my tan skin.


5. Colour Blocking

Can't decide which colour works for you? Colour blocking certainly helps to add that vibrancy and flow to an outfit especially in Fall / Winter where most clothings are in darker hues.

If you love colour as much as I do, you can also colour block your outfits with trending Fall colours by mixing and matching various items e.g Orange skirt/ Purple blouse/ Red bag, Navy Blue jacket/Orange shirt/ Blackjeans or leather tights, Green dress / Orange shoes / Brown long Knit outerwear etc.


So go have fun with Fall's colour trends and stay tuned for Part 2 of " My Favourite Fall Fashion Trends 2014" for clothing styles to watch for this season.

Love,

Fall 2012 Fashion Trends - Black & Blue

Happy weekend everyone!

Start of a new week ahead, start of fresh ideas moving forward. Can't believe we are already into FALL season. Have just launched the first of a series of Autumn Rhapsody collection for Foster Bay and therefore had the recent opportunity to review the fashion trends for this A/W 2012 season.

I am sure you all will agree with me that here in Asia where for most of us the weather pretty much stays constant on " Summer " mode and wierd enough it's getting more humid as we are supposedly heading into our monsoon season year end. So here are some tips and ideas to wear Fall 2012 Fashion trends in our climate.

To start the first of my series of " Fall 2012 Fashion Trends", let's explore the "Black & Blue" trend.

Black & Blue
Sultry yet elegant in it's colour combination. It certainly makes a strong impact when mixed and matched correctly. This trend for 2012 is best played out with a darker shade of blue i.e navy blue than cobalt or royal blue.

Love,
