The REAL Look of Innocence

Summer is so close I can feel the sand fall in and out of my flip flops. In light of the fabulous sunny, sandy season ahead I’ve decided to share with you one of the trends I adore most. It is the look of “innocence” that highlights romantic, layered ruffles, flowing, sheer fabrics and delicate but intricate details. While endlessly parusing the online fashion empire during the wee hours of the morning I stumbled across the perfect prototype of this theme. Pieces that flawlessly coordinate can be found on one of our most coveted websites, asos.com, where they are featuring the look at the moment. The color palette is delicate and includes petal pink, sky blue, soft white, beige, and champagne (woo, yes please!). The occasional metallic or black is thrown into the mix to keep the look grounded and a little edgy.
The light and airy feel of the layers and ruffles is absolutely ja’dore and allows the clothing to respond in the beach breeze. The sheer fabrics create a subtly sexy style that is both sophisticated and daring. And, metallic accessories and strappy sandals give the look that “just what it’s missing” final touch. However, I must say, I find the inimitable details to be the most darling aspect of the theme. The complex and edgy look of this zipper tiered Phillip Lim dress is stunning and by far one of my favorite pieces.
To get the look for less check out the zip ruffle top for $46.89 or the chiffon petal skirt dress for $132.86. Or slip into innocence mode and dive into your closet head first with a fresh new perspective. Perhaps you’ll see something in a different light that may be a magnificent look for summer!
