Fruit & Flower Print Trend...(Via Made By Girl)

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!

  1. 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...

    Hugs & kisses from Rio!

  2. 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. :)

  3. I 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.

  5. These 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!

  11. The funny thing about this trend is that some people still have it in their homes from when it was "in" last time!

    So with that, I don't think I could do it :-)

  14. 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! ;)

  15. Clothing is one thing...but shoes I don't think I will ever be into that trend!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I 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...

  17. good 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 ;)

    ReplyDelete
  18. I 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!!

  33. hmmm...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.

  37. Cute! 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

  38. That'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!
