Happening Street Tips
All over the globe we are seeing some really interesting street fashions.
For instance in Manhattan and Chicago it is a big trend to wear bright purples with black tight fitting tights. A good example would be a purple trench against black tights.
In New York everything is giving a little black edgy extra. Everything from denim to tan leather to hair bands is trimmed with black leather or black patent leather.
Another big trend in big U.S. cities is Frye boots. The old seventies style with the flat heel is back. The good news about this is that it is so comfortable. The most popular colors are black and dark brown but that old light caramel tan color is also popular around. You also see women toting around large purses made out of this type of leather.
At the other end of the scale is gold leather beatle boots or running shoes. Gold sandals are likely to be big again this summer. Last year the golds had a bit of bronze red or brown in them. Sandals with big feathers on them are trendy for evening wear.
In Paris it is chic to wear tacky tropical prints all year round with sleek black tights. Vivid black and white stripes or polkadots with bright red accents also make a striking statement. Of course because it is happening in France there are very high patent leather high heels involved.
Also in Paris and London you see women trading in the usual matching fabric belt on a wool or light trench coat for a large glamorous leather one.
Just about everywhere it looks like stitching is back on leather goods. Even the most glamorous of purses look great with some stitches on them.
In Russia the street style is to throw a little Chanel on. There is nothing more fashionable then wearing a bright red Chanel scarf with the Chanel logo on it paired with some high heel shoes.
In Canada one of the nicest trends is inky blue suede leather. The idea is to find this unusual indigo color in a pea coat that or shorter jacket that is draped with hanging fringes.
Another big trend in Canada, the U.K. and also the Southern United States is wearing shredded nylons and caring purses studded with metal. This is a throwback to the old punk rock days.
