Our 10 fave fashion trends of 2011

In 2011, we saw the rise and fall of tons of trends, and fell in head over heels with so many of them. It was hard to narrow it down, but here are the top 10 fashion trends we loved in 2011. Which ones did you love the most?


1. Colorblocking

Spotted on everything from dresses to shoes, colorblocking was definitely the trend to be seen in this fall. So mod!



2. Rose Gold

This blush twist on classic gold gave new life to jewelry boxes everywhere! Rose gold was the perfect accessory for a romantic look—and makes skin positively glow.

3. Maxi Skirts

In 2011, it was obvious that maxi skirts were no longer reserved for librarians! Thanks to this trend, we’re in love with full-on volume. Va va voom!



3. Lace

We got in touch with our feminine sides with lacy skirts, tops and accessories. It’s so pretty and sweet, who could resist?



5. Feathers

From earrings to clip-in extensions, the feather trend really flew off in the fashion world. It’s the perf way to be wild without rocking that old standby, leopard print.

6. Capes

Seen for years on our fave witches and wizards at Hogwarts, capes became hot even for muggles this year. We love the drama a cape adds to any look.

 


7. Fascinators

The Brits have inspired lots of fashion trends, and thanks to the Duchess herself, we went crazy for fascinators! These lacy, feathery hairpieces were just what we needed to banish boring hair.



8. Chevron

The chevron print took over our closets (and homes) with Missoni’s exclusive line for Target, and we couldn’t stop snatching up the loud pattern. Bring on all things graphic!

9. Sweater shorts

Sweater shorts were made for the chica who couldn’t say goodbye to her fave shorts when summer ended (that’s us!). With a pair of tights and sweet ankle boots, knit shorts are perfect for chillier weather.

10. Rainbow denim

This year’s surge of rainbow denim was such a breath of fresh air from our old blues. From jewel tones to metallics, we couldn’t get enough of brightly colored jeans.
