Do you follow seasonal trends?

Beautiful with brains says: not really. I wear what I like and feel comfortable in. If I like a trend, then I’ll wear it, but I’ll keep doing so all year round.

Not really, no, but there are some things I’m drawn to during a certain season, and some colours simply look better in the sun/in artificial lighting.

Ana, I agree. It’s the same for me too. I don’t think that’s following the trends though as we do it because we like it/looks better in certain conditions as opposed to wearing something just because it’s fashionable at the moment. :)

This year’s makeup trend is more about skin so I tend to apply foundation more carefully whenever I wear it. Otherwise, I just keep it simple :)

Dao, that’s true. It’s all about good skin this season and that’s something we all want. :)

I always end on following seasonal trends in makeup, not all, not sistematically, but always. For instance now I’m obsessioned by berry lipsticks. It’s not because I have to be like the others but it’s because they often suggest me new and beautiful looks as I’m not very creative ;)

Fiamma, seasonal trends can be very inspiring and if you like them, then why not? ;)

Sometimes, but not always. Currently I am spotting the dark lip trend often for fall.

Vonvon, I’ve noticed that too. I guess that’s always a very popular trend for fall. :)

More or less.

When in kimono, it is all about the seasons… and while there are generally 12 months, each with their own colours and symbols, there are 72 seasons on the old Japanese calendar. So then, I try to work with them.

In Western clothing, heck no. I’ll wear whatever I feel like that day! Sometimes purples and browns, sometimes reds and blacks, whatever I like. Today, I think metallic gold, turquoise, royal blue, + gunmetal glitter.

BebeTaian, wow, 72 seasons? That’s fascinating!

And I love your look for today. That would be such a pretty colour combination!

I rarely do. I prefer to go with what works for me. If some trendy colors or items suit me, fine but if not I’d rather skip. I don’t think this makes me less fashionable, just smarter in my choices. Still, I do enjoy seeing those who do follow them and can pull it off.

Icaria, that’s a smart thing to do. There’s no point in following a trend if it doesn’t suit is. :)

most of the time no, unless i really like it and suits me then I’ll follow :P

money doesn’t come by easily, so I rather stick to the basics and classics, though that’s kinda boring ahahaha

Plue, it may be considered boring, I guess, but some looks are timeless and always work so why not?

Nope! I do wear darker colors during the winter and brighter in the summer but I wear whatever I feel like. :]

Janessa, I agree. We should wear whatever we feel like. Sometimes that coincides with a trend and sometimes not, but the important thing is that we like it and feel comfortable in it.
