Trend and Anti-Trend of the week!


Hey everyone! Welcome to my first trend and anti-trend segment, I'll be showing you what's in and what's out. These could include - Hairstyle, clothes, suites, dolls, accessories - general trends, you name it! This time I'm going to choose clothes. Let's start on a good note with the trends, shall we? This week's trend is...

TURTLENECKS!



Now, stardoll doesn't really have many turtlenecks, downer right? But trust me, there are a few on the site and can be found in shops such as Fallen Angel, Pretty in Pink, and Rio! Those in the picture above are just a few, and as you can see, they're quite simple, which is great.

__________________________________________________

And now, the anti-trend. FLORAL CLOTHING. Come on people, it's almost Autumn/Fall, why are you still stuck in Spring? Florals are out.


__________________________________________________

Remember to tell me in my guestbook if you're wearing a turtleneck and I'll update this post with you in it, cool, huh?! What do you guys think of the chosen trend and anti-trend?



P.S. These are just MY opinions, you don't need to follow them if you don't want to, I'm not really a fashion critic or anything like that. :)

  9. I like to see turtleneck on my doll or on the runaway but I just can't wear them in real life. I feel the urge for gasps of air. It's like I can't breathe. I love florals very very much and they were my favorite trend this summer but.. eeek! I can't wear them in fall! It just seems so strange!

  10. I lovelovelove floral! :O

    And I hate turtlenecks. Possibly the ugliest things ever.. :/

    But even so I won't wear floral in Fall, I'm making the most of this last week of summer by wearing my floral top to a party :L

  16. I dont like hiding neck with sweater. Btw, such sweaters lead to fasten old skin on neck. So think twice, before wearing these in real. Therefore we have scarfs and other attributes to wear outside in cold weather.
    About floral, I agree, but there are many flowers in autum too, but colors are more to brown, orange, red.

    Just a question to author. Do u have cold weather in your country? I would love to keep this warm weather as longer as possible :D

  27. @Nojo-Looks like a turtleneck though, don't you think?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Sorry, but why do you assume that everywhere is like where you live? Don't you know that when it's fall in the North, it's spring in the South?

    So, while turtlenecks may be trendy in northern countries this time of year, floral-print clothes may be all the rage in southern countries.

    And in places like Central America (where I live), there are only two discernible seasons: dry and wet. And the weather is warm even when it rains. Turtlenecks will never be popular here.

    It's not my intention to be rude, and it's really not your fault to make such assumptions and generalizations. It just goes to show how powerful trends are. In this case, not a fashion trend, but the centuries-old trend of domination of the North over the South.

    Anyway, there are really no seasons in Stardoll world...at least, not in my suite and not for my MeDoll. ;)

    Cheers,

  30. Florals are not out, and will not be for a while. They are still in, but are getting a makeover for fall in orange, brown, nude and bourdon tones.

    And turtlenecks are great, especially with short puffy sleeves.

  31. I kind of disagree.
    Florals are the opposite of out.
    They're in a lot of fall/winter shows, including Louis Vuitton, Dries van Noten (Omg I love that collection!), Prada (Just a small part), No. 21, Fendi (Some of the skirts) and Nina Ricci.

  32. I dont like so much florals . :D
    But I agree with others.

  33. wooooooohooo!!! turtlenecks!! im getting some (when i get more stardollars :O)

    ReplyDelete
  34. Serveti gets 5/5 from me!

  35. I'm kinda traumatized with tight turtlenecks, 'cause it was part of the ugly school uniform when I was young and innocent LOL - but loose turtlenecks are so classy and cool. Specially, turtleneck dresses - very sexy. Don't you think?

    ReplyDelete
  36. I like this post although i still <3 my florals :D

    ReplyDelete
  37. I don't necessarily think Floral Prints are out. Only the pastel florals for me.

    Also I was wearing A turtleneck the other day! I'm too late. :|

    ReplyDelete
  38. **Only the Pastel florals are out for me. I like the more rustic darker ones for fall. :]

    ReplyDelete
  39. Im sorry but florals are forever..no matter the season :P

    ReplyDelete
  40. I have to disagree completely. I think turtle necks are hideous and remind me of the 90's and I love florals! I think you can wear them in winter too, just tone down the colours. It's also going in to summer in the southern hemisphere so I think it's a bit of an assumption to say that 'we' are going into autumn.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Hmmm.. I dunno.. the ones you picked out are cute but I love bright and happy FLOWERS :) :P

    ReplyDelete
  42. Yep, as I said guys, you don't have to follow my opinion. :)

    ReplyDelete
  43. I love the detail on the white Turtleneck,I will be buying! :]

    ReplyDelete
  44. I Only Like 1 Of The Turtleneck Tops,
    But For Some People They Might Still Be Wearing Floral Because It Reminds Them Of Summer, Which They Don`t Want To End!

  47. Great first post! :D

    And I totaly agree with you about the floral print. It's kindda over -.-

    ReplyDelete
  48. Oh! One more thing: Will you also post real life trends?

    ReplyDelete
  49. I know Jillz, I had bad memories of those too tight and itchy turtle necks.^.^ They don't look good on everyone, but some love it. I guess it works for smaller chest ladies better. I like the cowl, asymmetrical, and mandarin neck better.

    Florals are still in, it's always hot where I live. So I can't wear too hot things.
