FASHION WEEK REIMAGINED

Here we are over six months into a pandemic, but the world must go on. The fashion world, like everyone else, knows full well that now more than ever the masses need, crave actually, fresh designs and the runways with which to introduce them, even if it’s mostly the live streaming version. Who better than True Fashionista creative design types to come up with a way for Fashion Month to still somehow happen? All that quarantined creative spark has had to go somewhere, and from what we’ve heard and seen from the initial party, aka New York Fashion Week, the new fashion normal did not disappoint.

TEEN FASHION REPORT

We’re focusing on the younger set for this edition, because c’mon, they’ve got their social media finger on the pulse of all that is True Fashionista fashion, be it on TikTok, Instagram or occasionally donning a facial covering to venture back out into the real world. They’re paying attention, and designers are paying it right back. Check out HerStyleCode as a convenient one-stop idea shop for your fall and winter outfits, accessories included. Then read on for more hip ideas so sick (Maybe that’s not the best hip teen adjective at the moment!) you’ll be perusing Teen Vogue all season long.

SO MANY SKIRTS! |  truefashionistas | Women’s Fashion and Clothing

SO MANY SKIRTS!

It’s not a question of when, but how, will you be wearing a skirt? Today’s selection? Tomorrow? Not to mention as always, who will you be wearing? After so many months of sheltering and zoom meetings, we’re ready to make our lower halves important once again, and what better way to accomplish that  than by donning a stunning, True Fashionista skirt to strut your stuff into a socially distanced, sanitized setting this fall and winter?

HISTORY OF LULULEMON

Have you unfurled your mat, popped a video on and found your state of vinyasa in a solid yoga session or two lately? Gone for a socially distanced run around the neighborhood? Whatever your choice of athletic activity, we’re going to take a wild guess it was while wearing at least one True Fashionista piece of Lululemon Athletica attire.

HOW WE LOVE JEANS |  truefashionistas | Women’s Fashion and Clothing

HOW WE LOVE JEANS

"I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: the most spectacular, the most practical, the most relaxed and nonchalant. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity — all I hope for in my clothes."

FALL/WINTER TRENDS – 2020 |  truefashionistas | Women’s Fashion and Clothing

FALL/WINTER TRENDS – 2020

We’re taking our educated guess to predict what is going to be on your back, and our racks, through the new year. Maybe by One One Twenty-One (We said it first, mark that!) we won’t even have to match the mask to the ensemble. It could also be said that all this mega-quarantining may have inspired designers to come up with this year’s fresh looks.

HISTORY OF BETSEY JOHNSON

“I like the everyday process and the people, the pressure, the surprise of seeing the work come alive walking and dancing around on strangers. Like red lipstick on the mouth, my products wake up and brighten and bring the wearer to life.”

LEGGINGS – THE OFFICIAL WFH UNIFORM

We’re going to close our eyes, look deep into your True Fashionista socially-distanced life, and see LEGGINGS. You’re wearing them right now, aren’t you? Yeah, we thought so. Since working from home became the norm, living and working in comfortable clothing have become synonymous, and the fashion-conscious multitudes agree: leggings are at the top of the list of clothing necessities.

OUR NEW FAVORITE FACE MASKS |  truefashionistas | Women’s Fashion and Clothing

OUR NEW FAVORITE FACE MASKS

Face it, they’re here to stay for a long time. OMG out of the gate did we make a pandemic funny? We’ve been cooped up way too long. Yes, we’re talking about that hotly debated grim necessity, the face mask. Wouldn’t it just like the fashion world, though, to make the most of it and offer us some swank, True Fashionista choices? As it goes, in between the last time we discussed face masks and this moment, designers have been making the most of their quarantine time to come up with some pretty fashion-forward versions of that cloth covering we all have to deal with if we want to, you know, live healthy. At least now we can enjoy it just a smidge.

HISTORY OF LILLY PULITZER

Let’s bring it on home to our roots here in Florida for one of our own, True Fashionista Palm Beach socialite and fashion trendsetter, Lilly Pulitzer. It was around 1959 when Ms. Lilly, the wife of Peter Pulitzer, an owner of numerous citrus groves and member of THAT family, desired a business of her own. At this point, we should fill you in on the backstory.

ACCESSORIZING FOR SUCCESS

When you go out, you may be wearing the cutest outfit in the store, but to really hit it home for the True Fashionista look, accessories are the answer. Yes, we all have our favorites from winning ensembles of past years that hold staying power, but fashion is all about what’s hot now.
