Women of Milan are widely known for their ability to make up stylish yet effortless outfits. This particular look embraces the hot neon trend though the electric yellow shoes and bright-colored hat, which are teamed with the leather skirt ensemble and coffee-colored trench. This look is a perfect example of introducing the key trend of the season without going over the boards. Looking for the inspiration on wearing the casual look? Consider this London street look, where the trendy bomber jacket is teamed with the printed pants and running shoes. Besides being utterly athletic, this look still has a chic vibe owing to the pants with feminine print in soft pastel palette. Beauty of this outfit is in simplicity. The monochrome ensemble is a safe way to pull out an elegant, but yet effortless look. Moreover, monochrome is one of the key trends of this year. This outfit consists of the black cropped trousers and white top that were accessorized with the white court shoes, Chanel chain bag and collar necklace. We used to associate the fluorescent pink with the baby girls and princesses, however when worn right, this color can add style and elegance to your look. In this outfit the pastel-colored cropped pants meet with neon trench and it seems like it is a winning combination. The look was accessorized with gold shoes, cobalt blue box clutch and retro-styled sunglasses. Combination of the warm winter garments with sandals is not a new thing in the street fashion, which was once again demonstrated in this Parisian look. It includes an oversized ankle-length skirt in emerald green and mohair sweater in midnight blue, which were styled with platform sandals, blue clutch and retro-styled eyewear. The best way to add an edgy vibe to your utterly feminine look is spicing it up with leather garments like this girl, who teamed the soft skirt and shirt ensemble with delicate floral print with the studded leather jacket and statement sandals with lacing. The simplest way to obtain a typical New York look is throwing on the trendy parka jacket, but this girl decided to bring a fresh approach to spring outfit, which definitely allowed her to stand out. Though combining the few plaid garments is risky, she managed to compose a harmonious look, which was styled with suede ankle boots, rectangular bag, oversized eyewear and a unique hairstyle.↧

Last year's bikini post definitely went more viral than others. That definitely became associated with my brand, and so Swimsuits for All approached me a few months ago to see if I was interested in designing...I thought it was a great opportunity.Although Gabi doesn't have a background in fashion design, she was aware of the huge gap between the swimming suit trends and the sizes that they are available in. She had various sketches of bathing suits that she liked and would love to see in her size, so the designing collaboration went really easy.
