Summer Fashion Trends: Guest Post by Elle Charie

Introduction:
Hello my name is Marie from Elle Charie and I am posting a guest post. Read on for what products to look for this summer 2014.
The Light Wash Jean Shorts:
A staple must-have item for your summer wardrobe. The great thing about light wash shorts, is that they attract less sunlight due to the lighter colour and therefore will keep you cooler during the summer. The minimalistic style is very popular so pair with a white/off white top.

Crop Tops:
The 90's are back! And much like last summer crop tops are in-trend! Get ready to bare your midriff, of if you're like me and like to with a more conservative approach I recommend high waisted shorts/jeans/skirt and a nice crop top to boot.

Crochet Everything:
Basically crochet is super popular this season. Get ready for crochet dresses, tops, and shorts. Pair them with a bright colour for extra impact. Some style inspiration photos below.

Boxy, Light coloured Purses:
Purses in light coloured pastels with a boxy frame are really popular right now. Try getting a purse in an off-white colour, or mint.

Gold is Everywhere:
From Gold Watches to gold bracelets, we are going to be seeing a lot of statement gold pieces everywhere. So get your gold game on!

The Fedora Hat:
The Fedora Hat was traditionally for males but now is an iconic hat for women of all ages. The Fedora Hat is great for making you look stylish while protecting your eyes from all those nasty UV rays.
