I know I am not alone. For veteran fashion bloggers, this wouldn’t be a racking brain terms for you. But for amateurs and aspirants like me… this might help you a bit especially when you’re planning to start your fashion blog. 

These are my Top Eight 2012 Fashion Trend Encounters.

8. Arm Candy 

Stack of colorful bracelets in your arms.

You can buy it as a set or you can just choose from your collection of bracelets, be creative with the combination of colors and voila, a great addition to your eye catching outfit…  ARM CANDY!

7. Harem Pants

Also known as parachute pants[citation needed], are baggy, long pants tapered at the ankle, with side flaps on the hip that button at the waist area. –Wikipedia

Ask me, ask my closest friends… I never really liked wearing pants. But I fell in love with these and to be honest, I got one and it is the only pants in my closet. 

6. Sheer Fabric 

Fabrics that’s so thin that makes your top or dress a see-through. 

This trend will make your corporate look seductive yet still classy. 

5. Oxford Shoes

An Oxford is a style of laced shoe characterized by shoelace eyelet tabs that are stitched underneath the vamp, a construction method that is also sometimes referred to as "closed lacing" – Wikipedia

Who would think this would trend? And who would think this will be on top of my wish list? But these shoes that I don’t really find so adorable before now comes in different patterns.

4. Mullet Skirts

Also known as High-Low skirts are skirts with a hem that is higher in the front, or side, than in the back. – 

Wikipedia

I just found out that there have been a lot of bashes towards this skirt. I don’t know why but I think mullet skirts are just as fashionable as any other trending fashion designs out there. I like wearing it honestly. How about you? What do you think of Mullet Skirts?

3. Aztec Prints

Aztec is an ethnic group in central Mexico.

So you see, I can’t give you a definition of what Aztec is. I can’t even describe it to you.  So I’ll just show you what it is.

This is simply one of the best trends in 2012. The patterns are cool in the eyes. Surely it’s an eye candy. 

2. Detachable Collars

A detachable collar is a shirt collar separate from the shirt, fastened to it by studs. – Wikipedia

Whether you use it just on a plain t-shirt or on a sexy camisole, tube top or dress, or just even as your accessory! You can wear it in whatever way you like, just get on with your creativity and fashionista ideas and you will stun.

1. Satchel Bags

a bag, often with a strap.[1] The strap is often worn so that it diagonally crosses the body, with the bag hanging on the opposite hip, rather than hanging directly down from the shoulder. They are traditionally used for carrying books.[2] - Wikipedia

I’ve been eyeing on this even way back Dec. 2011. Also called The Messenger Bag, caught my attention because of it’s simple yet classy design. I’ve always wanted the Candy Pink colored satchel. Some stores online offers customizations and I’ve been drooling for Studio Boheme Bags for a year now.  I need to make more money.

I know there are still lots out there! I hope 2013 will surprise us with more fashionable and trendy ideas.
