Summer 2012 Trends: Moscow

Out of The Office

May 11

Hello Darlings, As previously mentioned, I am really excited to share some of my favorite international bloggers. Without further ado, allow me to introduce you to Anna Brain of Oh My Blog! — a Muscovite with an impeccable sense of style and a keen eye for trends.

I chatted with Anna to find out what are her favorite summer 2012 trends. Here is what she said:

Retro + tropic = dress

Prints in the spirit of Versace mixed with strict retro silhouettes are the main tendency of a hot summer. High heels combined with tropical colors – a simple genius, just as is youthful Bianca Jagger.

Sack bag

Sack bag is an embodiment of a contemporary sporty trend. Spacious and easy-to-use, of different shape and form, they simultaneously combine natural chic and light carefreeness. With this trendy accessory shorts with high waist and a shirt would go best.

Peplum

A favorite adornment of a Dior collection can be found in various summer lookbooks. Lush waves around the waist, strict geometrical lines, volume loops – a peplum can be of any shape or form, and still give your image a feel of airy elegance.

Neon

Fluorescent lights don’t leave a chance for you to go unnoticed. This summer one can combine them in any way a heart desires: with dark or light fabrics or even with other neon’s! Bravely forget about balance and mix a fuchsia colored t-shirt with a fiery-orange colored skirt.

Men’s shirt

Strictly men’s simple shirt made out of cotton or monochrome silk is not only a perfect excuse to explore your boyfriend’s wardrobe, but also an extra chance to save up money on clothing and finally buy the long-desired pair of shoes.

Thank you to Anna for sharing her insight into this seasons trends!
