Fashion, I love it. Unfortunately, I usually don't find out that something was in fashion until after the trend is long gone. Because the current trend will soon be out of fashion again. Or at least only then did I commit myself to buying something new. You hear it already:I'm not really a shopper. And to be honest, not super fashion conscious either. On the other hand, I like to look well-groomed – I'll just remain a woman 😉 . How about you? Are you always well aware of fashion trends, and do you participate in them? Then you probably don't need personal style advice or a personal shopper. Unlike some other people (including me). But how do you keep abreast of fashion trends if you're not a fashionista yourself?

They can be stolen from you, or they can be a guideline in your life. The fashion trends. Are you busy with it a lot, or do you prefer to just walk in your sweatpants? I love to look neat. Don't go out without makeup. But as soon as I'm on holiday again in our farm hole in France, I turn 100%. I walk in wellies, walk the dog in pajama pants. And I really enjoy that too! I will never be a real fashionista. But I still like to stay informed of fashion trends. Only:how on earth do you keep track of those, if you also have a lot of other things to do?
And when you've finally scored those oh-so-hip items:how do you combine them? With which top do you match those trendy new pants? How do you combine your watch with bracelets that also have to match your outfit? Hello!

Do you also have trouble keeping up with the trends? I completely understand you:on an average day I have other things to do than find out which model of trousers is in fashion this season. For all wannabe fashionistas who unfortunately just can't keep up with the trends in fashion (but would like to be informed), we've just listed them. What will be your favourite? And which fashion trend are you going to ignore?
You have to have the figure for it, but it seems to be an absolute trend this summer:the waist belt. Not a belt that should keep your baggy pants around your buttocks, but the belt as a true fashion accessory. And worn a bit higher than we are used to. You can't go crazy enough in terms of color.
A floral motif:it regularly comes back into fashion. So never throw away those floral fashion items! We are secretly very happy with all those floral prints. You too? Then you can read all about the floral print trend of 2017.
My eternal fashion trend for festivals:layers. And now you can wear them all year round. Different layers on top of each other is also one of the trends of this year. If it becomes a really hot summer, we will simply ignore this trend and go for one (or even better:no) layer.
Clothing is subject to fashion trends, but so are your accessories. And what is the most important accessory of the average lady? Exactly:her bag. How big is your collection? . This summer the trend in the bag area is nice and minimalist. In any case, in size! Small but nice is the norm. So if you don't have a tiny bag yet, you have another good reason to shop!
We'll have to wait and see if it really becomes a trend. The romphim:can you see your husband walking in it yet? And above all:does he see himself walking in it? . In any case, the whole country has an opinion about it. What do you think:hot, or an absolute not?
Well, we're up to date with the fashion trends for this summer. But then! How good are you at combining clothes? Even if you know what's in fashion, your look can still go completely wrong – I know all about it. For all those people who like to go with fashion just like me, but don't know how, there is a 'last resort' 😉 . Personal style advice, preferably in combination with a personal shopper. Unfortunately, you almost have to be a celebrity to afford that… Or don't you?
Good news for all (wannabe) fashionistas! There are several styling box sites where you can go for your own style expert. However, the majority is aimed at men, in fact, until recently I did not know one who also thought of women. Until I spotted Zalon while surfing the internet, the styling box that is also for women. Here you can order your own clothing box, but then completely personalized to your style profile. And composed by style experts with expertise 😉 . Super handy if you're not exactly an expert in the field of fashion, but you do like to look fashionable.

How it works? Very simple. You first create your style profile. You choose 3 styles that appeal to you. For example, business, sporty, playful or minimalist. Then you indicate which brands you like to wear. Then you choose which types of clothing you like to wear. Long Sleeves? dresses? Or absolutely no bare legs? And do you like fitted, or rather loose-fitting clothing? Your style advice is made based on the choices you indicate. You can even express your preference in terms of material.
Style profile filled in? Then you can send a photo of yourself. The style experts are very happy with that! If you wish, you can also have a telephone conversation with the stylist to clarify your wishes. And then it will get to work for you! You can choose from a clothing box with 1 or 2 outfits, which you can try on at home. If you don't like something, just send it back free of charge. Very happy with your new must-haves? Let your personal stylist know, that will make him or her happy again. And if you want to shop at ze again next time, you can simply choose your favorite stylist again.

In addition, you indicate per item how much you normally spend on it. That way, your style advice will always fit within your budget, which is a nice bonus!
Shop till you drop? I don't have time for that at all! So we leave that to our personal shopper. Sounds pretty 'Gooisch' but something tells me I'm a lot more fashionable then too 😉 . Fashion trends for the summer? Bring it on!
