Today I am exploring some of the up and coming trends for winter 2017. One trend that really surprised me was the 80’s comeback and how luxurious it looks with the fancy fabrics to put a new touch on the neon colors and puffy shoulders. Can you picture that? It seems as though 80’s fashion will never be there same; in a good way of course.

Patent leather is here too, with a bang. From the shoes to the pants to the jacket, get used to seeing your lady pals with shiny, beautiful material that stands out fast. Another unique material that made it out this year is velvet. It’s everywhere, even purses have it.

It turns out the puffer jacket is finally cool. Instead of just the usual down feathers and winter savvy details, you will find it with less gadgets in metallic materials to give a more versatile wear. Perhaps a night out on the town or a football game with friends, the puffer will have you covered and looking good. But if you’re looking for something a bit more neutral, the over sized navy (military) coat is probably your number one choice. No matter what you choose, you’re guaranteed to be warm and cozy this season.
