Summer Fashion Trends For Toddlers

Posted on by

With the summer season fast approaching, it seems like everyone is out shopping for their new summer wardrobe. If there are toddlers running around in your life, this means that you need to build a hot new summer wardrobe for them as well. This may seem like a daunting task when you first set out into the stores. But as long as you keep the top summer fashion trends for toddlers this year in mind as you shop, your trip will be a breeze.

Hats

Hats are one of the hot summer fashion trends for toddlers. From straw sun hats to the basic baseball cap, hats in all shapes and sizes are making a big splash at the playgrounds this summer. They look cool and give any outfit a finished look. Besides being a piece of fashion, a summer hat can help to keep your toddler cool on even the hottest days.

Walking Shorts

The longer the shorts the cooler they are this summer. This goes for both adults as well as toddlers. The longer shorts help to protect little one’s legs from the sun as well as any falls they may take. The most popular and fashionable walking shorts for this summer are cargo shorts. The large pockets are great for carrying any treasures your toddler may find on any given day. Avoid shorts that have lots of metal hooks on pockets and belt loops. These can easily get caught on objects and cause trouble.

Sundresses

Every little girl needs to have plenty of sundresses in her summer wardrobe. Sundresses are a great way to stay cool every day. The prints for this summer are bright and wild and will really help your little girl to show off who she is. Sundresses do not need to be worn only to parties. These dresses have become everyday apparel for the smartest toddlers on the block.

T-shirts with Hip Sayings on Them

Every toddler on the playground will be wearing T-shirts with hip and trendy sayings on them. This is fast becoming one of the essentials to any summer wardrobe. These versatile fashion pieces can be dressed up or down. They look great on boys and girls. Make sure to add a few to your toddler’s wardrobe.

Summer fashion for toddlers is all about staying cool while looking your best. Bright colors and prints mix with stylish fashion basics to create great looks that will make your toddler the talk of the playground. As you shop for your toddler’s new summer wardrobe make sure a few of these trendy fashions end up in your cart.

Scarves

Scarves this year are a staple in fall fashion and they are a must to have in your closet!

You can also use a scarf for a belt too, which can take the trend in an entirely new and different direction!

Amazing Boots

And that brings me to my next point, what fall season would be complete without a cute, amazing pair of boots? Boots are ideal for the fall and they are a staple for any girl that is going out for a night out on the town - or even if you just want to up the ante on your outfit! Whether they are booties or even just a pair of riding boots, it is your choice, you’ve just got to find a boot that goes with your fall outfit of choice!

Gray Colors

By far, the hugest color this year for fall is all about the gray! Whether it is silver, light gray or dark gray, it all depends on exactly what you are pairing it with. Gray is the color of the season girlies and it can be weaved in your entire outfit or you can just tie it together with a bit of gray. Pairing gray is so easy too, because it’s a neutral color, so it can really and truly go with any color you are wearing!

Festival Chic for Plus Size Women - Top 5 Tips - Summer Fashion Trends

Posted on by

No, we’re not talking wellies at Glasto, don’t panic! We’re using Festival Chic in a fashion trend rather than a literal sense!

We’re talking about that carefree, relaxed, effortless sort of look that the glossy mags would have you believe everyone is rocking at the summer festivals. (The reality, is most are probably wearing huge sunglasses to cover 2 day old mascara and big floppy hats to hide greasy festival hair!).

That said, festival chic, or boho-chic, or hippy chick style, or boheme style depending on what era’s fashion magazines you’re reading, is a perennial favourite for a reason. It’s easily achievable, perfect for summer, and ultimately, it looks great and it works really well for girls needing plus size clothing.

And, it’s for everyone. Even if you have no desire to stand in a field or queue for a questionable port-a-loo, you can definitely still indulge in a spot of festival fashion - even if your idea of outdoorsy is just a barbeque in the comfort of your own back garden!

So, here are our top tips to inject a little festival style into your wardrobe.

Plus Size Clothing Festival Chic Tip 1

Layers are Lovely: Think pretty summer dress with a cute vest peeking out underneath, perhaps a vintage denim waistcoat on top? (We love this one: Or, try layering two contrasting vest tops together with your favourite designer jeans (if you are a plus size try stretch jeans which have elastane woven in, usually about 2% of the fabric mix, perfect for girls with curves, very comfortable to wear and you’ll look fabulous!) - mix and match to your heart’s content.

Plus Size Dresses for Summer: Tip 2

Floral prints are your friend: Floral summer dresses are all over the high street right now, in all sorts of styles to suit everyone including plus size girls. Find one you love and have fun accessorising it dozens of different ways. Alternatively, spruce up plain outfits with delicate floral scarves, either loosely draped around your neck, or used as head scarves for real hippy style. Artificial flowers are in to - the bigger the better, in all the colours of the rainbow, clip them in your hair, on your jacket, on your bag, on your belt, let your imagination go wild!

Festival Foot Wear: Tip 3

Espadrilles are excellent: Espadrille’s are like a more grown up wedge, and they’re very now. As luck would have it, they’re also very comfy, so definitely worth investing in to wear with your festival inspired finds. They look best with shorter styles though - so if you’re happier in a midi/maxi style summer dress, you’re better off choosing some strappy wedges instead. But be wary of the weather, if it is going to be a muddy festival you either need to be prepared to throw away those espadrilles after the festival!

Vintage Style Summer Dresses: Tip 4

Vintage is in vogue: The reason most Boho-Babes look so individual, is because they really are - they spend hours scouring charity shops and vintage fairs for all the quirky elements to their perfect ensemble. If you don’t have time for that, don’t worry - a few carefully chosen new pieces can easily work together to create a vintage inspired illusion. A belt with an antique style buckle would look fabulous nipping in the waist of a floaty summer dress. Or a stretch denim waistcoat would work brilliantly over those layered vests to add a vintage looking twist.

Access(ories) All Areas: Tip 5

Accessories can make or break a festival inspired look. Take a simple sleeveless Plus Size Dress - it’s pretty, yes, but it’s not festival chic. Yet. Add a 60’s inspired floppy hat, some massive sunglasses, a string or two (or three) of beaded beauties, a funky belt (we recommend tan), a stack of boho bangles, and voila - true Glasto-style Glamour.

The most important key to the trend, is to make it your own. It’s all about being relaxed, comfortable in your own skin, and rocking your own style - whether that’s in a field into the wee small hours, or in your garden listening to your iPod!

So embrace your inner Festival Fashionista, strut your plus size style & have a fantastic summer!
