Top Ten Fashion Styles in 2017 – Fashion and Beauty Tips

The chill of winter will be ushered in softly
with fall 2016, winter 2017 flair for femininity. It’s not the eighties
anymore, but pretty in pink’ will reappear with winter temperatures to set
hearts a flutter and cheeks aglow. From the looks on the runway in 
Paris that we’ve already seen this fall; the trend will
continue along with some English aristocrat influence that may appear a bit
brisk at first; but these checkered prints and stripes give off a fantastically
crisp, clean business and casual look. Where some may consider the aristocrat
look to be a bit drab; it seems from the appearance thus far that this once
boring box-like design now possesses the ability to completely accentuate the
simple truth in the beauty of the woman brave enough to boast what some may
consider an ugly duckling following the feminine pinks and mauves. This is no
mix and match as the sparkles, furs, and floral comradery of the romance party
certainly cannot blend bling with blah, but there’s just something flirty in
the plaid and striped look that is appealing and attracts the onlooker. Not
just anyone can pull off these boyish knicker-loving 
Aristocratic Styles, but the truly confident woman will carry herself
with an air of dignity causing a stir in the true fashion lover’s soul. The
Prince of Wales checks: Checks, stripes, plaids are running amuck on the runway
and although a sharp contrast to the feminine furs, flower patterns, and pastel
pretties; the crispness of the haughty business-like look seems to set them
apart onto a heavenly cloud all their own. This particular style actually gives
off an air of control and confidence to the beholder and the wearer. Not nearly
as ugly as the title from Vogue might imply! Here are the 
Top Ten List Fashion Styles in 2017

 1. Stripes: It’s breaking all the rules with this ban of
bars going in every direction in every size possible. The bolder the better
when it comes to these regimental divisions. Black, white, colors so bright!
The possibilities are never ending in this classic category. Thick, thin,
whatever is in!

2. Floral Print: Is floral print ever out? It makes an appearance
every year and this year is no exception. Floral fields of vibrancy and allure
are romancing down the runways from realistic looking petals of passion to
fifty shades of beige, still able to attract the eye to the style regardless of
the colorless effort.

3. Bubblegum
Pink:
Inclusive of furs, sparkles, and hews of mauve; this flirty fashion
is certainly not a faux pa and right up to the girly woman’s alley. All women
love to feel pretty and in these colors and textures; one could not hope for a
more girlish feel and glow!

4. Jackets and Coats: This fall and winter the classics are back and
two of them are big enough to smuggle any fashionista fear so, what lies
beneath may not even be at issue. The puffer coats are making another
appearance. Dredging up the 90’s isn’t all that bad when a jacket makes even
the fluffiest fem appear fragile. Blasting out in metallic puff can now be cool
over any outfit for a night out or Christmas shopping. Could it be that the
puffy coat is no longer considered the tacky Michelin Man’ look, but cool’ in
complete contrast to its warming purpose? Now that look is great to shroud one
from the harshest winter frost, however; should you feel a bit sketchy, you can
add a bit of mystery by shrouding your fashion in an 80’s wool trench, Navy or
vinyl rain trench. 

Jackets and Coats


Espionage has never felt so good and knowing you’ll steal
the show when you unbutton and disrobe from this classic should be just enough
to set the stage in the once revered must have’. The jacket category continues
to unveil yet another fall and winter option in bringing back the leather biker
look with a feminine twist. The accents to add a lady-like look to the black
leather range from jewelry to print. Aesthetically pleasing, fresh, feminine,
and pardon my French, but simply and still bad ass. The trusted ski-jacket is
still in and never seemingly goes out of style. Different versions and colors,
but that tried and true legend is still on tap for winter 2017 as well. 

5. Extra-long sleeves: Not sure why, when, or how this made the runway,
but never the less; the elongated way of hiding chewed fingernails from high
school is back. These sleeves extend past the fingertips to remove the need for
gloves all the while keeping in fashion and being able to steer the car without
leaving so much as a fingerprint or attracting frost bite. Super sleeves have a
comforting appeal to the Rhianna loving style gurus and it is said that the
sultry songstress herself iconized the look and approves of it being the
comeback kid of fall and winter.

6. Turtlenecks under dresses: The classic childlike jumper look is in again
and this time; it doubles your summer wardrobe. Take a sleeveless, low cut
dress and explore the options by adding any color turtleneck underneath. This
is a clean, timeless look that goes from the grocery store to the office
without taking time to change in a phone booth on the way. It wasn’t mentioned
by the experts, but the cowl neck seems to be an okay substitute for the turtle
chokehold any day of the winter week.

7. Platform boots: Daring and dashing come to mind when podium
scaffolding carries you through the slushy streets. They’re showing zebra
stripes, but it can be guaranteed that these seventies stilts can be found in
every fabric and design. As long as you scuff them up a bit so as not to skid
across central park sidewalks to your demise; one can assume if they’re still
good enough for the band KIS, they’re good enough for everyone else.

8. Trooper Hats: Ah, leave it to Louis Vuitton to come along with
the oversized furry Russian looking trooper hat, but you don’t have to overdo to
look cool. Any size trooper will do and as long as the furry flaps cover your
ears, you’ll never succumb to the below-zero bitter cold that even Russians
find a bit too frosty.

9. Leggings: Well, praise the Lord! And here you thought
Wal-Mart had lost its mind! No! They’re AGAIN. Wear them under dresses and
skirts with all the confidence in the world because according to Vogue
magazine, these elastic loves are no longer in limbo.

10. Faux Fur Stoles: The animal rights activists haven’t howled a
peep of protest over these imposturous fur accent pieces. And the very cool
thing about this style trend is that it has been seen paired with the Prince of
Whales checkered look. Heck! Don’t stop at checked. The furry pelts can be a
sexy addition to anyone of the fall or winter looks. So, as you can see; the
fashion trends we are seeing this fall and winter open up the doors of
opportunity to get creative with your wardrobe.
