I've got my eye on...

Crochet

Crochet is likely familiar to you in some sense; you've probably seen it on ship's ropes or your grandmother’s blanket. Whatever the case may be, you will see it all over the fashion runways as well. However, as far as fashion is concerned... forget the homemade craft feel. The current crochet trend is all about a great quality, intricacy, and a luxury edge. Wearing crochet gives off the perfect carefree vibe and can be worn with a variety of different pieces. The best part? It can be found at all price ranges!

5 ways to Rock the Crochet Trend

Dress up with a form-fitting camel blazer and black ankle boots to give a crochet dress a more sophisticated feel. This style is so effortless chic... it will make everyone turn heads.
 




Layer crochet over a tight dress, leather boots, cross-body purse, hippie headband, big sunglasses, and lots and lots of bracelets to create a more casual look.





Spice up any outfit with a crochet scarf. Make the scarf the center of attention by wearing one overall contrasting color. The contrasting colors with be visually appealing and make the crochet scarf pop.





Look effortlessly beautiful by wearing a loose crochet top over cut-off jean shorts. It's the perfect cover-up for a day at the beach or anytime you want to have fun in the sun.





Make any crochet dress look trendy by pairing it with a leather jacket, peace flare necklace and tribal head wrap. Bright red lips are a bonus!
