Pretty pastels were the colors of 2014 which were easy to fit in any style and shape. Tea-length skirts combined with short shirts and fitted jackets were just suitable for casual as well as formal wear. Wide-legged trousers have also been hot in 2014 giving a slimmer and taller look.
Long coats with buttons but without collars were also in fashion. Be it shirt or jackets, buttons were everywhere in all designs, hence button-downs were also in fashion. Bright tangerine lipstick and light airy fabric were also the highlights of 2014.

Fashion freaks have started looking around for the upcoming fashion trends in 2015. Skinny jeans have been around for quite a time. The new trend might be for pants that are slim towards the waist, hips, and butt and slightly loose around the knees and calves.
Overskirts and jeans with patched designs are also being predicted to be in fashion in 2015. Embroidered denim and denim skirts are also to be seen in fashion in the upcoming year. Softer and subtle colors are considered to be the colors of 2015. Padlock necklaces are said to be coming back in fashion too, and you might see small padlocks hanging around the necks soon.
Is Wearing White After Labor Day Still an Issue?
Fashion etiquette, if that exists, has long followed the rule of not wearing white after Labor Day, which is on the first Monday of September.
With so many revolutions in the fashion world, the rule has since been forgotten but still heard by some traditional followers every now and then. The rule was initially confine
d to the prohibition of wearing white dress pumps and later on applied on entire clothing.
Wearing white in winters is typically not suitable and therefore many didn’t care whatever the reason was. Nowadays you can find many ways to wear white all year round as you please.
