[b]Sheer Fabrics: Get rid of those heavy fabrics this season and go a lighter route with sheer and see-trough fabrics. The ultra-feminine style flows just right and keeps you cool as the weather changes.

Re: ~ Retro 60's ~70's & 80's Trend Revival Plus All The Latest Fashion Trends ~ by mohawkchic(f): 7:48pm On May 28, 2009
Oversized Shades
Be cool and stylish with a pair of oversized or retro sunglasses. Just be careful on how you choose them and find a pair that will match the shape of your face.


Cropped Jackets
They’re great for those mild days of mixed sun and breeze. A cropped jacket can be paired with long layers or a casual tee or tank for a modern look.


Statement Jewelry
From chandelier necklaces to four-fingered rings, these popular pieces of jewelry look great with any outfit for any occasion.


Boyfriend Jeans
The loose, relaxed fit style and rolled up hem can be worn with flats, pumps, or almost any other shoe that you’re in the mood for. You can even try them in shorts for a cooler look.

Re: ~ Retro 60's ~70's & 80's Trend Revival Plus All The Latest Fashion Trends ~ by mohawkchic(f): 2:36pm On May 30, 2009
~Fashion Looks - World Tribal Style
This is the exotic tribal influences in fashion. . . . This trend has been popular through the noughties decade, and emerges in a newer form each season.  Ethnic inspired fashion designs had a huge following when the line was called Boho, but now this has morphed into a style which has evolved into world fashion tribal decoration style.


'One World' Fashion - Tribal Accessories
Accessories offer the greatest scope for exploiting the many differences and craft skills between nations.  Shoes, bags, bangles, necklaces and scarves all get the One World treatment and beads embellish all these tribal accessories.

Re: ~ Retro 60's ~70's & 80's Trend Revival Plus All The Latest Fashion Trends ~ by mohawkchic(f): 2:41pm On May 30, 2009
Tribal Footwear - Sandals and Shoes
The folkloric themes of the last season has combined with ikat and zig zag mosaic patterns to create fresh lively shoes and footwear designs ripe with rich embellishment and colours that sing.  The key to wearing footwear like this is not to overdo the rest of your outfit. These sandals and shoes are statement making pieces in themselves.

Re: ~ Retro 60's ~70's & 80's Trend Revival Plus All The Latest Fashion Trends ~ by mohawkchic(f): 3:03pm On May 30, 2009
Tribal Jewellery
Turquoise stones, fake or real, get tribal fashion production moving through south-western looks to artefacts of pure tribal fantasy.  Mammoth dress rings and necklace collars raid a costume history as far ranging as the Mid-West to Egypt.  The fringe is exotic and used in leather goods, garments and also earrings But with these tribal accessories the colour story is similar and never veers from strong, bold and statement making pieces.
