To prepare for summer, here are the styles and fashions OC Style Report is looking out for in the next few months.
High Waisted Ripped Denim Shorts
It's hot in the summer months, especially here in California, so of course we expect shorts to be all the rage. But a good way to step up the style is with high waisted shorts. But, not just your regular denim shorts. These days, the 90's are back and in style in a modern way. Ripped denim is all the rage. Pair them with something partially tucked and it will really show off your figure and accentuate your shape, especially helping to show off your legs.
Off The Shoulder Tops
No matter what year it is, no matter what season it is, something that never goes out of style is denim. Denim has always been in, and that's not going to change any time soon. So embrace it! One particularly hot look right now is an off-the-shoulder top. The shirt makes you look and feel fun and loose, and really frees you up while showing off your shoulders. Pair it with some nice denim jeans and you will have a look that seems effortless, breezy and fun.
Ripped Denim
The grunge style of the 90's is back in a modern way. Throw on a pair of skinny knee-ripped jeans in any color and match it with a longline tee or button down for guys, or a top for girls.
Tropical Prints
Nothing says summer and the beach like a tropical print! But this isn't the Hawaiian shirt your dad wears every year on vacation. Finding a good tropical print on a dress or off-the-shoulder top makes it look like you're always on vacation. It's fun, vibrant, breezy and the vibrant colors will really make you stand out on the street or on the beach. For men, try wearing some fun swim trunks to the beach or the pool!
Brow Bar Circle Sunglasses
Brow bar sunglasses are very popular right now. Especially the ones that have circular frames. Plenty of outlets are selling these chic throw back to the 90's style sunglasses, too. It's popular for festival season and a California laid back style.
