You’ve spent years honing your professional appearance but somewhere along the way you likely forgot to invest in your weekend wardrobe. With the warmer weather finally here, it’s time to get a kick-back, summer-lovin’, heck-yes-it’s-the-week-end style.

Trends may come and go but they help to reinvigorate that joyful outlook on style. Here are two of the season’s hottest trends to help you find your fashion voice. So, be confidant, wear what makes you happy and get out and enjoy your downtime.

IT’S SHOULDER SEASON!

A GO TO FOR FASHION INSPIRATION Movie stars of the 1950s such as Grace Kelly, Lucille Ball, Brigitte Bardot and Natalie Wood might have set the standard for the off-the-shoulder look but social-media-style bloggers are today’s style icons. They are the first to experiment with up-and-coming trends. Check out below to see how they are dressing up and dressing down this ‘shoulder season’.

TREND ALERT:

THE BOMBER JACKET
Versatile, practical
and the only jacket you
will need this season.

The bomber jacket is a transitional topper which will complement every outfit from workwear to weekend ensembles, all the while injecting a major dose of cool-girl style.

This trend has quickly become a celebrity and supermodel favourite and, if celebrity status says anything, it is here to stay. Bomber jackets offer street style edge while also allowing for personalization.

Take a cue from style veterans like Gwen Stefanie, Khloe Kardashian and Diane Kruger and elevate your outerwear game. Choose between bombers with luxe fabrics, cool embellishments and reversible detailing.

STYLE TIP: Make your bomber unique by adding embroidery to a plain bomber and don’t forget to push up the sleeves a bit.
