Tuesday Trend : Folk

Hi Folks (yeah my jokes get worse every week) following on from the gorgeous bohemian Coachella looks that I featured earlier in the week (Thanks for your lovely comments btw!) today I'm bringing you a trend that is pretty similar but with a slightly more ecclectic and unique edge - Folk. 

Folk is slowly becoming one of my favourite looks for summer, to me it just encompasses all that is summer - gorgeous colour, earthy fabrics and a little bit of whimsy and fun.

As you can imagine quite a few Hollywood 'fashionistas' have championed this trend and here are a few of my favourite looks: 

Firstly gorgeous 'Gossip Girl' Jessica Szohr

 Jessicas beautiul patterned skirt adds a blast of colour to her otherwise classic outfits and keeps it looking fresh and funky instead of boring and dull.

Then we have the ever casual/glam Mary-Kate and Ashley

 

The girls add a folky element to their outfit with ecclectic fabrics and that beautiful patterned scarf!

 Lastly we have one of the champions of casual cool - Vanessa Hudgens

 

Vanessa's  pretty patterned sundress and fringed bag add a real unique twist to her laid back California style.

So now you've feasted your eyes on some great celeb style here's how you can get the look for yourselves:

 Firstly there's this simple patterned blouse which teamed with some denim cuttoffs and gladiators would have you festival ready in seconds.
Topshop £24.00

 Then we have these super cute shorts which with their subtle patterning add a real twist to over-done denim cuttofs and give you a far more unique look.Toshop £32.00

 Then there's this funky patterned play-suit which teams a classic neutral colour with playful patterning

River Island £19.99

Then finally we have this lovely coloured sundress, which teamed with tanned skin, some celeb worthy shades and super comfy gladiators would equal a fabulous holiday look.

Miss Selfridge £26.00

So there we are FOLKS (couldn't resist sorry!)
I think this trend is so versatile that everyone can find a way to make it work for them.
Special effort this week has gone into finding super affordable items too as I'm really making it my aim to find fashion forward items that are accessable to all of you budgeting babes too!

Hope you like!
