Top Six Trends of 2016

10:00 AM



Before the year ends, I am rounding up my top six trends that I fell in love with in 2016. I had the opportunity to try so many amazing new fashion and beauty trends; most of which are now staples. 2016 was full of bold makeup, trendy fashion staples, and adding to my aesthetic. If you have the chance or are looking for something new, give these products a try, I'm sure you'll be as pleased as I am. 

SUEDE.
Anything from a jacket to a bootie to a fringe purse, I love it all. Suede has been an ongoing trend for a few seasons; however, there are so many suede pieces out this year it is so easy to find pieces that work with your closet. A suede piece has the ability to elevate any look; it is just a matter of finding your favorites. Needless to say, I hope this trend continues for a while because I cannot seem to get enough. 



MONOCHROMATIC.
There is something so sophisticated anything monochromatic. I love nothing more than white on white or black on black. Especially during the colder months, I find myself gravitating towards all black outfits with some form of a statement piece. Whether that includes a jacket, vest, scarf, or boot, it is so easy to classic look.



LAYERED JEWELRY.
If you ask anyone that knows me, they might say I wear too much jewelry for my own good. However, if it is done right layering different jewelry pieces can transform your outfit. My go to pieces to layer are necklaces and bracelets. Adding necklaces with different lengths and details, combined with mixed metal bracelets and a chunky watch is a constant in all my outfits.


LIQUID LIPSTICKS.
I guess we have to thank Kylie Jenner for bringing the liquid lipstick trend to light! I used to swear by my lipsticks and glosses but after being introduced to this new lip trend it has quickly become my go to. There is something chic about a bold matte lip and if matte is not your thing, place a gloss on the center of you lip to add more depth to your look.

HIGHLIGHTERS.
All hail the highlights! The first time I heard about this trend, I did not think it could do much for me but I was so wrong I have always had oily skin, which is why any mattifying products were my best friends and adding something shiny like a highlighter did not make sense to me. My first highlighter was a very subtle champagne color. This extra step in my makeup routine brightens the look of my complexion in seconds and quickly became part of my daily routine.



MARBLE.
I could not tell you where my love for marble came from but you could definitely say it was love at first sight. Within this past year, this trend has boomed and you can literally find marble products anywhere. There is something so simplistic and clean about marble, making it easy to incorporate it into your life. Laptop cases, phone cases, planners, water bottles, you name it! What's not to love!!!



Goodbye 2016, bring it on 2017!

XOXO,
