Ruffles Make Everything Better

in

Do you have ruffles in your closet yet? If the answer is no, you have to get out there and buy a piece or two or ten. Ruffles are a huge trend this season. Personally, I think they make everything look even more adorable. Looking extra feminine is in.

Asymmetric Top available at Zara- $39.90

Blue and Red Off the Shoulder Crop Top available at Pixie Market- $56

Exposed Zipper Ruffled Fit and Flare Dress available at Express- on sale for $48.93

Ruffle Sleeve Tee available at LOFT- $44.50

No matter your age, size, or shape, ruffles look good on everyone!

Put On Your Party Pants

in

There is nothing more fun that pants with a cool (and sometimes bold) print on them. As someone that owns practically zero pairs of pants, I think I could definitely see myself getting a few of these patterned styles into my wardrobe.

Vine Street Crops by Greylin available at Anthropologie- $128

The Pixie Mid-Rise Ankle Pants available at Old Navy- on the sale for $22.97

Floral Slacks available at H&M- $19.99

Blue Stripe Slouch Trousers available at Topshop- $75

I want to know, what do you think about this trend? Will you be trying it this season? How bold will you go with your print???
