Let's Do The Twist :: Layered Fringe Skirt + Socks In Shoes

Happy Sunday everyone!

Fringe and tassels are starting to pop up in many retail outlets and stores especially being one of the key trends to look out for this Spring / Summer 2015. Therefore when I was approached by a Korean TV show recently to provide a short video of " How To Style...", I decided to work on this fringe skirt ( recycled, may I add from few years back - check out this post!) and give a new "twist" ( no pun intended) to this item.





Coincidentally whilst putting this look together, I discovered I had matching socks to the top I wanted to pair the skirt with. So seeing it's for the Korean crowd as well and adding a fun element to this outfit - I had to do another " socks in shoes" ensemble!

 For your info, all items in this look are items already in my wardrobe for at least 6 months, so my point about mix and matching old stuff to create a new look stands strong and firm. And trends tend to come back in full circle. 





Wanted to bring out the fun element of the outfit with funky accessories.







With all that twisting going on, I figured, using this belt back to front would be a cute statement, and highlighting the outfit from the back. You will see from my other posts that I have styled this belt the other way around. 

 I know many of you are longing to see what kind of styles you can work with for this Fringe/ Tassel trends, so I have put together some inspirational boards and items trending this style for you to work with.

Aztec Culture : Two Piece Aztec Print Outfit + Grey Winter Hat


Brr.....it is indeed getting colder now. As you can see from the view behind, it is foggy and miserable these last couple of days...so needed a little pick me up with my new hat which I got from Zara Home!! YES !!! They do sell accessories as well. Was completely surprised but a girlfriend wore hers and I said " I gotta have it", and at a steal of a price as well as with  a " MADE IN ITALY" tag instead of the usual "made in china", how could I not?




Aztec prints is definitely fun to trend this Fall, especially when top to toe print outfits / looks is the IN trend for Fall / Winter 2014. So imagine my blissful happiness when I stumbled across this 2 piece crop top skirt suit from a boutique in one of our local malls in the area. Can you believe it? Comfy and slightly stretchable, this ( what I would think is some sort of cotton) outfit was only less than US$ 20! Didn't bother to try it in the fitting room and kept fingers cross it'll fit. Lo and behold!! Another great buy!



I do love crop tops but find it very difficult to style / trend them. You probably would have noticed I have not posted much outfits in this style since I am so conscious about my tummy area and believe me - I have no "washboard toned" tummy to show off. So finding the right length for a crop top was ideal. This one just barely skimmed the top of the skirt and what was even better is that trending this style for Fall, with the options of  a scarf to help hide any areas that would peep through, this outfit was worth every penny. More so, you can even mix and match the top with jeans or perhaps pair the skirt leggings, turtleneck and a jacket.  So ideally you have at least 4 outfits or so to trend with one buy.
