Hi everyone its Paola so today I'm going to be talking about a few
Trends that are happening right now
it's like the perfect time because we're transitioning from- like through the seasons into Winter from Fall to Winter
and now we're going into 2019. So I figured it would be like a good time to
Talk about what's current, what's hip what's now, what you should be wearin'
And yeah, let's just get to it.
So the number one trend that I need to discuss right now is
Blazers... And blazer coats!
essentially this
that I'm wearing is a blazer and it's vintage. I got it at Salvation Army
It was like a dollar, so don't be fooled by all of these
companies that are selling these blazers
that you could literally find at a thrift store for a dollar
I saw one that looks exactly like one that I have that I got at the thrift store. It was at Nordstrom
I just walking through
$595 on the tag. I was like
honey noooo who's gonna spend that much cuz like
it's just a trend like who knows how long it's gonna last? And I mean
I know that blazers are classic like yeah, everyone needs a good blazer
But this style this vintage style like yeah, it's come back now
I don't know how long it'll last
it was cool in the 80s but go find the ones from the 80s don't get brand new ones
and try to make it work,
It's not gonna be worth it.
So I go to the thrift store or vintage stores and I find really cool blazers because
blazers are. so. in. everyone is going for this, like:
business/school vibe
and I feel like it's really working for the season! In the cold weather the layers,
like turtlenecks, layer some jewelry with it. It just looks really really nice.
So I love the blazer trend and these are some of my favorites.
so I have been trying to wear more skirts
I'm trying to be more adventurous because sometimes I put on jeans, and I'm like I feel boring.
I just feel so...
basic
But yeah, I just feel like I need to go outside the box and to push my boundary, put on a skirt
sometimes, try different patterns, try different colors, like try something that's fancy and then make it casual.
It's just like, skirts can do so much. They're so versatile and luckily
really long skirts and midi skirts are really in this season
they've been in for a while now and they are just my favorite thing -
and I was really worried because I'm petite
and it can look really short if I wear something
like super long and overwhelming, but it actually
works really well it actually makes me look longer, especially I've been wearing a cropped jacket,
and not something too oversized.
And then definitely not a flat boot on the bottom, but maybe something with a little more interest and
it's just
the perfect look when I went to amp up my style and feel like I'm pushing a boundary a little bit, you know
going outside the box, getting out there puttin' on a skirt. So I'm just loving midi skirts right now,
they're definitely on trend and there's so many different ones to choose from I've been shopping a lot
I've been shopping at thrift stores and online at like Asos and stuff. They have so many options
you'll never be without. And also a trend that is really really in, and I know it feels kind of repetitive that
it feels like it's always in [laughs]
but plaid is huge right now and it definitely is a classic,
timeless look with plaid because plaid just keeps coming back! Right now plaid
is super super in with blazers with this school style, this vibe that everyone's going for
and the one's I have are all skirts!
So I am loving the plaid skirts because I'm like, you know, I'm trying to get out of the pants.
But I also have plaid pants! I also have a blazer, this plaid trend is just
taking over and I feel like it is really cool for outerwear right now
I don't have anything like that, but I would love to.
I just think that the pattern is definitely timeless. Like I said,
but it's on the runways right now, guys, it is everywhere.
It will never go away so get some plaid for yourself
Get it going! [laugh]
Everything is very 90s right now. You know, you got the plaid you got the long skirts
you got this like school vibe, which is very 90s. And then you got like these like chunky boots, black boots
like mom jeans - all of this stuff is super super 90s and the way that everyone is
modernizing it now is putting in really simple things underneath
kind of paring it down not going full grunge, but pulling back a little bit and that restraint,
also layering necklaces, things like that. So the 90s are definitely definitely in.
Another aspect of the 90s that is also in is neon!
Which you might think 80s but also the 90s, you know, you have Saved by the Bell
And 90s cartoons and just funny things like that. That's very like neon, that aesthetic of
the 90s but
this neon trend is really really in, and I know a lot of people are saying
midi skirts with neon colors is really cool, which I think it is, having a bright colored coat is really cool
right now and i've been doing neon accessories
because I don't really love the neon but I feel like it works in my wardrobe when I do it small doses.
So i've been doing like accessories like this scarf and I just think that neon can be very cool.
Okay, so that is all I have for you today
I just wanted to talk about a few trends and if you didn't know, now you know.
And you can go out get what you want and definitely look at thrift stores because, guys it's always in!
The thrift store always has trendy stuff and you just have to look.
Don't spend $1000 on one thing, that's insane.
So hopefully this was helpful for you if you wanted to get some style inspiration,
hopefully you've got it and I will see you in my next video. Bye!
