Edit
According to Elle Decor and Stella McCartney there's a fruit print trend coming. I swear, it reminiscent of the 70's & a bit of Orla Kiely.
I mean come on....platforms with a fruit design?!! Would I wear those? Not at this moment. But then again ..... I always like TRENDS after they've been worn & worn and about to go out of style.
Anyone out there do the same thing? Wear it or place it in your home after it's been said & done? Judging from Stella McCartney's Fruit print dresses & jumpsuits her spring 2011 line are all the rave on the runways. Who knew?!
However, if you're just NOT feeling citrus-sy (more than likely not a word) then just skip this trend all together & wait for the next. Enjoy!

Jen, I am so with you! I am always waiting for a trend to pass by and then I proudly wear it! But I actually love patterns in general, so flowers, fruits and anything that is colorful and specially 70s inspired is just up my alley...

I love fruits...on my plate! haha, this reminds me of my great-grandma's kitchen. Here in Costa Rica that fruit trend came in about 10 years later than in the US, so that is soo 80's for me. Haha. I do like the apple throw pillows. :)
ReplyDeleteI like the colors enough, but I can't seem to get into wearing fruit on my clothes. It feels too much like a cheesy tourist trap tee from Florida to me! The very last dress is cute, though! I think I would actually wear that.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Want those shoes!
ReplyDeletejen! this is such a fun post! I have been quite obsessed with these colors (wearing them) for awhile now... guess it's "on trend " now?!! ok by me;))
ReplyDeleteThese do have a very 70's vibe. I'm not sure whether or not I would wear this style, but it's very cute and bright!

just saw those fruity glasses recently and fell in love - so darling! and perfect for summer, right?
ReplyDeleteKATIE: ha! I thought the same thing too..reminds me also of tourist gear...But i do like the first outfit at the top...even though its more flowery than fruity!
ReplyDeleteLoving the fruit prints. Not sure I could pull it off head to toe, but one of those tops would be fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI generally love prints but this wasn't my favourite Stella McCartney collection and I am usually very into her looks and designs
ReplyDeleteLove your blog by the way! :)

Yes & YES!! I totally hate things and swear it's not my thing and then sure enough, months later- LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteThe funny thing about this trend is that some people still have it in their homes from when it was "in" last time!
ReplyDeleteSo with that, I don't think I could do it :-)
JESSICA: i would say that is sooo true haha
ReplyDeleteI love your fun moodboards! I'm not too sure I can pull off the giant fruit look, but I am loving the '70s inspiration.

oh no, I don't think there is any way I will be wearing fruits, I don't want to look like I have an apron on all day! I think I'm passing on this one...But I do like flowers, so skip the fruits, get on with the flowers! ;)
ReplyDeleteClothing is one thing...but shoes I don't think I will ever be into that trend!
ReplyDeleteI like the shoes & the drinking glasses are okay, but don't think I could ever wear head to toe fruit! Some trends are good in small pieces...
ReplyDeletegood to know! i am so out of it when it comes to fashion lately. although i am thinking there is an age cutoff for this trend...and i think i may be above the cutoff ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't think I will be jumping on this trend anytime soon! I like to eat fruit and maybe once in a while decorate with real fruit... but not wearing it on my clothes!!

I kinda like it, it all depends on the garment and print I guess.
ReplyDeleteI would rock that apple tank now that my baby weight is gone!
ReplyDeleteI loved your blog!

Actually, some of this is not bad! I swear we had similar fruit glasses at my childhood home in the 70's. It always comes back around!
ReplyDeletehehe I love the "I am so trendy" cloud,, that cracked me up. Yes fruit are definitely on the horizon. :) To me it's all about the colors ,, I'm not into the faded look yet things to change with time.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely Thursday!!

I'm not so sure about the fruit trend but definetely I loooove the 70's trend and the first look is sooo pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteJen I'm ALL about the 70s so it makes me happy!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun color palette. Not sure if you'd catch me wearing fruit, but I love this print for a beach bag or something like that. xoxo, chrissy.
ReplyDeletehmmm...I've got to be honest. I'm not so sure about this trend. I'm pretty sure I won't be participating. Nobody looks good with a massive orange on your butt.

Where are those baby blue shoes from??? Love them.
ReplyDeleteBRI: they're from TopShop.com :)
ReplyDeleteLOL Jen, I am the same way, always late to the party! However, I love those banana heels!
ReplyDeleteCute! I'm so into prints lately. I'm always so sad when I think back at the bohemian tops I used to have years ago, they're back in! Thanks for putting this together, I'm loving the fruit prints. And thanks for visiting and commenting last week. xo
ReplyDeleteThat's funny that you mention liking something after it's about to go out of style. I found myself doing that often and didn't think there were others that did it too!
