February 20th, 2020Bringing the Drama with Dramatic Sleeves
If there’s one common thread in the trends taking off in the new decade, it’s that bigger is better. Fashion is moving away from the minimalist essence that dominated the runways through the mid-2010s and embracing the drama. Bags are getting bigger, pant legs are getting wider, and sleeves are getting ever more dramatic, too. Fashion is channelling the 80s and early-00s is a big way. To be honest, those two are my least favorite decades in fashion. But the 2020s take on dramatic sleeves has captured my attention. read more

Trend Tracker: The Pouch by Bottega Veneta
If there’s one bag that’s been taking both the blogs and celebrity candids by storm, it’s the Pouch by Bottega Veneta. The bag is almost genius in its simplicity: supple leather gathered into a pouch shape that allows for the materials to speak for themselves. The OG bag comes in calf leather, but Bottega Veneta has also released a $20,000 version in crocodile skin. Despite the laid back nature of both the bag’s name and silhouette, its luxury is undeniable. read more

Lime Green Takeover: Summer’s Latest Color Trend
Welcome back, Style of a Gemini readers! I’ve been MIA lately because real life has taken over, leaving me very little time for posts. Since my last post in January, I’ve gotten engaged (!!), got a new job, performed in my dance studio’s largest show of the year, and started wedding planning! It’s been a lot of fun but hard work that left me little energy for creating content. But when I saw lime green starting to pop up everywhere as the color of the summer, I knew I had to come out of hibernation to share it with you all! read more

Best and Worst Trends of 2018
2018 is drawing to a close, and it’s the perfect time to reflect on our year in fashion. 2018 brought much bigger changes to the fashion landscape than we’ve seen in years, largely due to the death of minimalism in high fashion. Personally, I thought it was a change more than overdue–you can only see a nude-colored head-to-toe look so many times before it feels uninspired. The trends of 2018 definitely took fun and fantasy to another level. read more

3 Fall Trends I’m Crazy For
Summer is coming to a close, and although summer is my favorite season, I’m looking forward to the start of fall and fall’s new trends. It marks the change of seasons the way back-to-school shopping used to do before I graduated. I used to spend hours trying to decide what I was going to wear on the first day of school—you had to stunt as hard as possible to set yourself up for the rest of the school year. And even though there isn’t a day like that in the working world, you can still stunt on your coworkers with these three fall trends. read more
