I really like the wide pants in floaty fabrics.  I bought a colorful pair last year on a whim and I love them with a little tank and platform wedges.

I agree 100% but I broke my own rule last week when I wore this

with these!

Those are cute!

 

The ones I got last year aren't palazzo shaped like these, they are kind of full at the top, too, sort of gathered, with a wide waistband.  They're a different shape.  The ones I bought are almost like a lot of ribbons sewn together to create the fabric, it's kind of hard to explain.  But I thought they were so pretty and unique.

Love the wide legs in the summer when the temps get into the 90's.

Re: What current trend CAN you embrace?

I am liking the tunic length tops. I am only 5' & 2x, pear shaped. SO glad the tops are long enough to cover my tummy & rear end. I do  not care for shrugs, altho still seeing a few. 

 

(Probably shouldn't), but I do like the printed bottoms

I like interesting sleeve treatments, like the bell-shaped sleeves. They add a feminine look. 

 

I also like a touch of lace as an accent. 

 

Pale pink jeans really appeal to me.

 

And I'm drawn to release hem jeans, though I can't say why!

No one will ever call me trendy, I like tight straight leg jeans and tees.

Re: What current trend CAN you embrace?

For me it has to be the newer "pretend"/faux leather. It really does look and feel a lot like the real thing and of course it is a lot less costly. I'm looking forward to some dresses and suits this fall/winter in colors other than the ubiquitous black.

I'm loving the lace that can be worn with it. A very nice look.

I really love all the feminine blouses that are around.  Especially the ones with the bell sleeves!

I find the uneven hemlines can be very flattering to those of us with hips! And it doesn't have the effect of shortening your legs like the long even hem can...

I recently purchased this top...very cute on!

the 'point' is offset but the same result...


@Andreatoo  What do you wear under this as far as bra?  I would think your bra straps would show unless you wore strapless?
