graphic prints fall 2013 by bayareafashionista on Polyvore

 

Graphic prints were huge on the fall/winter 2013 runways in New York, Paris, Milan and London. Although many of the graphic prints favored by designers were shown in black/white, there was also an array of colored prints on the runways which are spicing up the streets this autumn season.

Graphic print are being shown on everything imaginable including dresses, tops, pants, skirts and even jackets. As the color blocking trend fades into the background, graphic prints are rising up to take center stage in the trend arena. These intricate prints also dominated the runways for  spring/summer 2014. in New York, Paris, Milan and London. This is a trend on the upswing!

For the fall 2013 season, look to add at least one graphic print to your wardrobe. If you are feeling bold, try a dress and make the trend the focal point of your ensemble. If you are feeling a little shy about this “notice me” trend, try pairing a scarf with an all-black outfit for a chic and understated version of the look.

Personally I love this trend on dresses and skirts. I am definitely on the hunt for the perfect graphic print dress! What do you think of this trend? How do you plan to wear it? Are you already rockin’ it?

Pencil skirts for fall 2013

The pencil skirt is back! After a bright spring/summer season filled with A-line skirts and dresses, the pencil skirt has made a comeback; and it is chicer than ever. Although our eyes just got used to the A-line skirt, the pencil skirt has decided to take over for fall as the “IT” skirt for the cool weather season, leaving the A-line is a close, second place style spot.

Pencil skirts for fall 2013 are hitting just at, or just below, the knee. This long, slim silhouette is chic, sophisticated and very “of-the-moment” for fall 2013. Designers have created the pencil skirt in every fall style imaginable. Pencil skirts are being shown in leather, wool, autumn hues, bold prints, digital prints and color blocked.

For fall 2013, the pencil skirt is the focal point of an ensemble. Pencil skirts with prints are a hot item this fall and outfits are being designed around them. If there is one hot, trendy piece to buy this fall 2013 season, it is a printed pencil skirt.

Of course, if printed pencil skirts are not your thing, a classic, solid colored skirt in black, brown, wine or cobalt blue will look fresh and modern for fall. The fabulous thing about a classic pencil skirt is that you may already have one in your closet! Love that!

Spring 2013 fashion trends: the A-line skirt

The A-line skirt is arguably the most flattering skirt silhouette available to women. This classic and flirty silhouette shows off a slim waist and hides the derriere, thighs; and is long enough to cover the knees in some cases. Over the past few seasons, pencil skirts, short skirts and long maxi skirts have been the hot skirt styles. Not for spring 2013! The hottest style to hit the skirt and dress world for spring 2013 is the classic and sassy, A-line.

There are so many reasons to love the A-line skirt for spring 2013. The style is flattering, easy to wear, and easy to dress up or down; love that! A-line skirts can also be worn during the day or for evening occasions, adding to the versatility of the silhouette.

The hemline for A-line skirts this spring 2013 season is a moving target. A-line skirts and dresses are being shown in any hem length between the top of the mid-thigh down to the bottom of the knee cap. This means there is an A-line skirt for everyone! Fabulous!

One of the beautiful things about the A-line skirt is that you can hem it to any length you want. If you love the fabric on an A-line skirt which hits below the knee, and you would prefer it to hit higher, it will be easy to hem to the length you desire and still be on-trend for the season. Love that!

A-line skirts for spring 2013 are being shown in every color, print and fabric imaginable. Look for pastels, bright colors and neon hues; both as solids or color blocked. Prints are also hot for spring 2013, so of course A-line skirts and dresses will reflect all of the season’s hot floral prints, lace prints, painterly prints, geometric patterns, space prints and more.
