Trends I will & will not follow..



Fashion has evolved over the years, with its highs and lows, and no year being an exception. When fashion houses show case their designs on the runway, we know immediately what trends we want to stay and those we want to fade away almost immediately.

Looking back at fashion trends from the last 5 years, there are trends that have moved on to the next season, those I embraced and those that faded; that I would not be caught following.

Have a look…
