{Trend Alert} Snake Details S/S 2012

Typically sought after as autumn and winter treatment, exotic snake details exude luxury and richness. I see snake like I see leopard, never just a trend but a constant in fashion for anytime of the year. This Summer 2012 exotic snakes take center stage as we see it in bright and pastel hues and multi-colored treatments in fashion across the board.

{Trend Alert} Clutches S/S 2012

Most times when you think of a clutch you think of those small wee ones ladies carry to formal events. For Spring/ Summer 2012 the clutches being sent down the runway are large enough to hold all necessary stuff a woman needs daily. From leather to synthetic, plain and structured to ornamented and slouchy, clutches come both in neutral colors and in brighter hues. Here’s some inspiration for you to drool over:

If you can’t decide on color Phillip Lim’s duo-color clutch does the trick. Lemon yellow on one side and summer white on the flip side. $400, www.ssense.com

One feature I really like on a clutch is a removable strap, like this one by House of Harlow 1960. I’m digging the geometric shapes and the periwinkle color on the clutch as well. $225, www.houseofharlow1960.com

HOH 1960 Riley

Since black and white and color blocking is a S12 trend I think a clutch to match would be logical. This leather clutch from Zara has a full closure top zip and I love how the white graduates into black (we call that an ombre). $99.90, www.zara.com

Snake details typically are sought after as Autumn trends but this Primary New York clutch done up in psychedelic multi-colors screams Spring/Summer. $250, www.primaryny.com

For your everyday casual life I’d go with a clutch that is unstructured. How much do I love Marie Turnor’s “Pinic Bag”? A lot a lot a lot. Reminds me of my brown paper bag lunches my mother use to pack for me in elementary school. It’s brilliant. $180, www.marieturnor.com
