Although the 2010 summer sun is still glistening, the time has come for us to feast ourselves for next year's trends. As we pack our summer clothes away gear up for 2011, it makes sense to know what to shop for at current season end clearance sales. For Fall/Winter 2010, we have encountered jumpsuits, sheer, boyfriend blazers and florals.
The floral trend will continue into next year with hot and cold mixes of bright and nude hues. Expect to see floral broches, socks, hair accessories, stockings, tights, bags, shirts, skirts and hints of them on pants as well as dresses. The traditional virgin floral prints are a thing of the past. Floral prints of today are more hardcore and evoke all things naughty.>

Modern luxury is theatrical with a bit of ruggedness. Fine fabrics such as lace and silk are on the top of the list for major fashion houses. They are bringing the feminine element back with a hint of theatre and drama. The perfect illustration is The Blonds show which began with an eye beaming theatrical performance consisting of four dancers draped in different color costumes paired with glittery Louboutin heels. We caught up with Selita E. Banks who closed the show and she told Black Voices, "I am a huge fan of The Blonds. They represent fashion. I feel about as sexy walking down the runway in their clothes as I do in Victoria's Secret".
We don't just want to be feminine and beautiful anymore...we need drama, jaw-dropping, "WOW" factor. Trends in fashion come and go. What it comes down to is what we feel comfortable in and who we are as individuals. As long as you are confident in the clothes you wear, you are fashionable, you are trendy and most importantly, you are unique.
