Crochet Obsession



Ok... so your probably looking at this saying to yourself...crochet really? But YES really! Crochet is currently one of the hottest trends is summer! So many fabrics and textures... The beautiful handmade designs are hitting the runway for this Spring/Summer 2011.  The look can definitely be dressed up or down (as shown below) and offers a Bohemian /low key chic vibe!

On a lazy Saturday or Sunday afternoon you can even hit your local thrift store to search for cute inexpensive pieces.  I have a few tips on how you can put together the perfect summer outfit! 


ON THE RUNWAY

HOW YOU CAN WEAR IT

Wear ONE crochet piece, whether it be a top or dress...it should be the main focus of the look

Pop a crochet piece over a bikini or wear it over a similar colored camisole

Pair a crochet top or dress with some short cut off shorts

Keep accessories minimal to keep the outfit looking fresh and modern

Pair it with some cute flats or heels




So let me know what  you think about this trend! : )
