When it comes to fashion week, designers might be showing off the latest looks for AW 2015 on the runways, but there are plenty of notable fashion moments happening on the streets! The global fashion crew descended upon New York City with purpose, and wouldn’t let the below-freezing temperatures dampen their stylish parade. Here are our favourite looks and trends from outside the shows.
Pastel Hues
Take note of New York’s blushing show-goers and invest in a pink coat to take you into spring in perfect pastel style. Fashion bloggers sported barely-there pink coats, complimenting their muted ensembles. The rosy hue will soften any colour worn underneath. Not so brave? Try work a single layer of this pastel hue into your wardrobe, we have plenty candy coloured separates available in store today!
Feeling Blue?
If black and white is too stark for you, this subtle version may be more your speed. Give it a try when you feel like making a statement with little colour. Ideal for those who like their clothing to be a mix of both contemporary and classic, a blue jacket will provide you with a fail-safe option that is capable of adapting to multiple scenarios. When it comes to choosing the right shade of blue for you, we suggest taking into consideration how and when you will wear your new purchase. Of course, the navy blazer is a year-round essential that deserves its spot in any capsule wardrobe, but it’s very safe and the majority will already own this staple. As this item will only be worn outside, why not look to make more of a statement this year? Electric blue, cyan and turquoise shades will inject life into a tired and dreary winter wardrobe, instantly reinvigorating your look. Be bold this spring.
Monochrome Madness
The trend’s not groundbreaking, but black and white is everywhere. What makes this season’s take on the classic colour combination interesting, though, are the various textures, patterns, and silhouettes. The best way to approach it is with good quality separates, which you can wear even when the monochrome trend is long gone.
Splash of Colour
It’s official – colour blocking, clashing, and print-mixing are going nowhere. In fact, we spotted bold and bright colours on many street-goers this fashion week. Typically, with the monochrome theme, you’ll likely want a pop of colour in each room to stop the room feeling bland and boring. We spotted some fabulous inspirational outfits that are featured below.
Rain or shine, sub-polar temperatures or not, there’s no excuse not to look your best! The ladies of NYC never let us down. In fact, some of these street style looks are so sharp, designers may need to start taking notes. . .
