If
you ask me I'm not someone who is super-trendy, and I am especially not the
first one to jump on to new trends.
However,
if I like a particular fashion trend, the first thing I try to do is look in to
my ever-expanding wardrobe to see if I have any item to create the so-called
trendy look, without having to spend any real money on the same. And this is
what happened when I wanted to try out the oh-so-popular trend of wearing
longer shirts over tops/tees and jeans. Now dusters are also a rage currently,
and I do have a bohemian floor length kaftan/kimono style duster, but I was
more interested in the mid-length shirt/buttoned tunic sort of a look. So after
rummaging through my closet, I came across this striped dress, which can actually
be worn multiple ways, thanks to the buttoned front. So after pulling this
little number out of my closet I quickly picked out one of my favourite (and
also fairly old) blue/white tops. I paired my blue skinny jeans with the top
and the tunic/dress and voila...I created an outfit that was/is trendy without spending
even a penny. So I encourage you guys to go through your existing clothes in
order to recreate a trend without blindly heading to the shops to buy those
"trendy" pieces.
BTW,
if you have seen my Turkey Look-Books, you would know that I had worn this
striped blue dress in magical Cappadocia.
