Spring Summer 2013 Hot Trends - My Favorites!

Hey everyone!
Hope you all are doing great. The chilly weather in Delhi has all of a sudden slowed down, with the  weather being quite warm since last couple of days! That's actually a relief, as earlier it was reallyyy reallyyy cold - that I didn't even feel like going out, dressing up or getting some outfit shoots.
Anyways, its SALE time and all of the major brands are offering amazing discounts. I have already scored a pair of Steve Maddens and my eyes are now on ZARA. ( would share the collective haul soon)
Also, its time that you can cleverly pick few items from the Sales which will be IN the next season ie. Spring/Summer.

Here are my favorite trends for Spring-Summer 2013 -

1. Stripes

Stripes have been features at every major runway show and designers are just loving stripes in every form. Thick or skinny, horizontal or vertical, it's a trend to watch!

Dolce & Gabbana

2. Graphic Prints

Look bold and quirky with various graphic illustrations on t-shirts, dresses and even trousers. They'll make you stand out in the crowd as well. I also have got myself a pair of face print pants which I have worn HERE.

Manish Arora, Mara Hoffman, Mary Katrantzou, Suno, Jean Charles de Castelbajac

3. Sheen & Sequins

These were in trend last season as well and don't seem to go out of fashion anytime soon. The poker barbie and fashion icon Lacey Jones also swears by the glam and shine of sequins.

Jonathan Saunders

Alexander McQueen

4. Tribal 

Aztec prints, feathers, fringe and many other tribal prints and detailing are in rage this season with even Indian designers like Surily Goel, Pia Pauro and Ranna Gill. Even I have got my hands on an aztec print dress and shirt which I'll be sharing in an Outfit post soon.

5. Fluorescents

This trend is here to replace Neons. Punch pinks, loud lemons or hot orange - fluorescent clothing when paired with structural separates will help make you a chic fashion statement.

6. White

Whites are the best and the most soothing colour option for summers. You can always tone down bold prints and bright colours by adding any accessory , shoe or clothing item in white to your outfit. 

Prabal Gurung

Apart from these, Florals and candy colours would remain my favorite trends this Spring-Summer.'
