The "Light" Trend || Spring/Summer 2014

From light jeans to white shoes, light muted colours have been very on trend for this summer. Greys, whites, blues you name it. Personally I don't mind this trend because my wardrobe lacks much colour. Now, I am not saying that you have to dress on trend, much of the time I don't. But the "Trends" I am talking about are just observations. This photo is of Jason Wu's Spring/Summer line up for New York Fashion Week 2014.

I am bringing up these particular trends because they are the ones I have seen people wearing on the street as well as the runway. A lot of the time some trends that you see during fashion week aren't brought into everyday life because they aren't that realistic. But these ones are, and I have to say I quite enjoy them. These next pictures are of Alexander Wang's Spring/Summer 2014 Collection. I must say there are a couple of pieces I wouldn't mind having myself from either of their collections.

Even with makeup this Spring/Summer season has been weightless. And by that I mean simple and delicate. Models makeup on the runway have been lighter and airier than past years. With light washes on the lids and lighter colours on the lips and less bold than past years (not that I don't love a bold lip), not that they weren't seen, they were, but much of the majority at NYFW was the barely there look. Highlighters, brows and pastels seem to be very common this time round.

Along with some gold brows by Dior, of course.

I am definitely going to try to pull off some of these looks myself, maybe not the gold brows (maybe one day). So I hope you have enjoyed this different kind of post. I want to do more along the same lines, so let me know what you think.

I'll see you soon.
