You see this fashion world that we inhabited moves faster than we think. Now we have two seasons in one season. So when they tell you (bloggers, designers and trend forecasters) that peplum is in this season, believe them at your own risk.
They are undoubtedly telling the truth but what they forget to tell you is not to stock up everything because in two weeks if not days, peplum will be so-last-season. Don’t be scared, peplum is still as good a trend as anything, so you are still in the right track….for now. BUT. At you own risk
Point is, trends evolve everyday, and sometimes it’s time and money consuming to try to keep up. So I try to keep up with trends because I am trend abiding fashion citizen, BUT I try not to put pressure on myself, consequently I shop like a minimalist, if you may.
Buy items that are timeless and that you can keep when the next season comes knocking. If you buy a peplum, keep it classy, let it not be to overdone with colors and design.
The simpler it is, the easier it to keep it. When harem pants bombed us, because they did, and some were bad on people, some people were bad on them…but that’s one trend I liked and it was denied justice by people who misunderstood how it was supposed to be worn. They went hobo on it. Sadly now I wear mine when I’m cleaning my small mansion. And you look back and you have more than five of them in different designs, color and patterns.
I shouldn’t have bought them,,,,,what am I going to do with them? Well I can only keep them for the next 10 years to come; I’ll play vintage with them.
So next time when a trend hits me, ill try go simpler on it and buy less of the same thing.
I don't follow trends, I like when they pop up but when they fade I still rock it if I like it :)
