street style 2

We have a bit of fetish for S/S11 and Charlotte seems to have used her inspiration from Haute Couture and embezzled it into street style. 

Galliano is just one of the fashion players whose designs have been setting our eyes alight with bold brights, graphic prints and frivolous couture. Michael Kors's label - known for it's clean elegance has too been parading down the catwalks. As we watch the fashion shows on Vogue T.V, I can only imagine that we all claw our stomaches, in hope that our gob-smacked expression will not make us look like more of the homebound dog than the fashion lover.

So as soon as I saw this outfit, it became apparent to me that Charlotte had deviated away from being a devoted couture girl. Instead, she had brought her own high-street twist to couture. She teams a trusty leather jacket with a faux fur collar, while celebrating the key trend for summer/spring 2011 with her bold printed, safari-detailed blouse.

Charlotte wears her denim hot pants well with opaque tights to dissemble her from showing off too much flesh. She seems to be working several key trends here in just the one outfit.

So while many people have upped the ante by deviating away from the norm and wearing faux fur coats pre spring, (me, haha), others have stayed true to form in the exact way Charlotte has. Her outfit is on trend with a concoction of graphic prints - and she works the 70s trend revival with the wedged open-toe sandals.

Her stachel yet again keeps her fashion forward as it is both stylish and on-trend. The brown colour sits well with her camel wedges and the safari prints on her blouse.

Whether her style choice was thought up subconsciously or not, it appears that the stylista paid specific detail to layers mid getting ready. Her bright spring/Summer has been ravamped with a biker-chick jacket. All-in-all she accentuates the beauty of mixing clothing pieces together which would on any normal occasion fill up two separate shelves. She creates a rebellious outfit which is far from offending.

Thanks for reading beauties
