Spring 2012 Trend: “Aztec, Zig-Zag and Tribal Prints”
I know that I’ve been bombarding my blog with posts this week but I happened to go through my rough drafts and found a few that I had forgotten to post, lol. Since today is the official first day of spring, my next trend to feature is the ‘Tribal/Aztec’ trend. Actually, this is no new fashion statement and has been popular for a few seasons now. The tribal trend consists of strong, graphic prints (usually black and white graphics mixed with darker prints is a recognizable element) combined with warm, earthy tones (black, browns, deep reds and oranges) and natural accents (straw, wood). Here are a few new items in the tribal/aztec print:
Asos CURVE Bodycon Dress in Aztec Print, $44.76, Sizes UK 20-26
Remain Belted Maxi Dress from Nordstrom, $98, Sizes 1X-3X
Tribal Heel Pump from Barefeet Shoes, $29.99, Sizes 6.5-10
(This dress isn’t a tribal print but would look great with the above pumps) Jessica London Maxi Dress from One Stop Plus, $69.99-$79.99, Sizes 12-28
Then add these Gold Lighting Bolt Earrings from Curvaceous Boutique to complete the above look, $24.99
