We are conscious about the importance of festivals as the great source of street style and fashion during the summer. We all get inspired by their assistants and sometimes we criticize them for showing too much drama in their outfits. Coachella is always the very first fest of the year, where celebrities dance among fringes, ripped shorts and cowboy booties. But now is our turn, ¡season of music festivals has already started! So, take notes from trendsetters and get inspired by your own style.
Do you remember the 90s? The time when we added platforms to our sneakers and to any other shoe possible, when Spice Girls fell off their own shoes and sprained their ankles. What a time! If you thought that platforms would never strike again, be ready for a new wave of high sneakers. This trend started with Isabel Marant's wedges and now extends to platforms. But wait! here's the latest scoop: Chanel have just introduced this kinds of shoes in their cruise collection 2013. So, now is the right time to choose from 13 models that we simply love. Get elevated!
Jackets season is almost ending with warmest days and summer approaching, but we didn't want to end "mid-season" without mentioning one of the most popular jackets by now, the army green parka. It started being cool some time ago, when it girls like Alexa Chung wore it in her daily outfits, but this year has become a must have, joining denim and leather jackets. We really love parkas, specially because they are very versatile and combine with long or short dresses, jeans... The combinations are uncountable but we can see some good examples of how to wear them, here they go!
When the weather turns warmer, we start to wear more jewellery than usual, and if it is shiny and colourfull even better. For the last two summers the main fashionable items were the bracelets (like friendship ones), but this time we focus on necklaces and collars.

These trendy necklaces have catched fashion blogger's attention. You can try to build one if you are good at crafts but if not, here you have 12 beautiful models you will like, go for them!

If you want to change your style for a while and forget your skinnys, boyfriend jeans are a good alternative, mainly because they are in fashion this spring. You may or may not agree, but it seems that boyfriend jeans go better with ballerinas or sandals, although combined with booties or Converse sneakers also look pretty good -it's up to you-. Ripped and rolled up are almost essential features for these jeans. The combinations? Infinite. So take notes and get your own pair or steal them from your boyfriend's wardrobe. But don't forget to fasten your belt.
