What is a summer of life if not what lies within the details? Summer fashion excels with its contrasting details and clashes of materials, so I’ve compiled some trendy details summer 2017! Chic materials, current trends and style ideas that never grows old.
Courtsey of Valentino (resort 2017)
Patent Leather And Denim
Patent leather has yet to grow as a trend ย (it’ll probably hit big during fall, let’s make it happen), before that though, there are ways you can work the material of statement though it’s not a practical choice for summer. How? By accessories! Accessories are something you’ll work nevertheless so why not do them in patent leather? Going for a chic pair of boots in patent leather and contrast them to your denim shorts or skirt. ย The match is striking!
Tropical and straw
Not everyone’s summer consist of tropical islands and vacations. But that’s not an excuse for not bringing the summer vibe to you. Do a tropical print as in palm leaves or a floral one and add straw accessories. The combo is ultimate when going for that classic summer vibe! Straw accessories are going more and more popular too, so you’ll stay on the trendy side undoubtedly. Not to forget, straw to anything blue/white striped is fashion magic!
Midi length and high shoes
There are plenty of style options on colder summer days. They are after all another version of spring weather (or fall weather if you so may). A really chic combo that is for the fashion bold is to do a midi length (culottes, skirt or dress is your choice) and pair with knee-high shoes! Preferably shoes that shows some skin as in lace up or gladiator sandals. It creates a bit of an over the top feeling but in a fun way. ย Regular OTK boots are fun too as they work as tights or pants!
Socks and Shoes
So this trend has been around for quite some time now, but I still think it has a lot left to give. The trend is ultimate when your new shoes are uncomfortable as socks softens the friction. Do your flats or sandals and cute socks in a contrasting color or style. Easy as that!
Pink and yellow (or anything)
This trend never really happened. It was mainly the designers and fashion brands that thought it was a good idea (and me perhaps). I still think pink is a genius alternative to start with as base when you want to mix different colors. Pink with red is a classic, pink and yellow is a bold one and pink and blue is a matter of style!
Folks! What trendy details summer 2017 are you weeeerking? Let me know in the comments!
Nice and perfect looking outfit..

It’s a gorgeous combo!! Xx
Socks and shoes has a very thin, fine line in between looking sophisticated chic and horrifying! I will never attempt the trend mainly because I will never be able to pull it off. LOL!

Hahah I sort of hear you on that one though. Hahah, I think you’ve been courageous within other areas though, so I’ll let you pass ๐ ๐

Thank you love! Xx
Now that I live in Florida, I especially love tropical prints and straw. The sock trend is hard for me here because of how humid it is. I love the blush tone ones though, so I might have to do that once it cools down towards the end of summer. ๐

Oh Florida and the tropical/straw combo sounds like the perfect combo itself! Can’t wait to see you work more of it babe, Xx
I love the way patent leather and denim sound, I can’t wait to give it a go come fall when I can actually fit into my leather pants and chambray top I’ve been eyeing for most of the winter season, haha! I think it makes for such a nice, edgy contrast, one that’s different. Speaking of different, you and me both love the pink and yellow duo, I’m surprised I didn’t see much of it on the streets this season though. I think it’s because it can be a bit intimidating and some may not know which shades may compliment the other best, so they avoid it at all costs? One trend I’ve noticed everyone embracing, including myself, is the palm print, I mean how can you not?! It screams summer, like florals do spring, beyond perfect for the season! Thanks for sharing, gorgeous, and I hope you’re having a great week so far!

Hahah I know, it seems to be you and me and perahps one or two other bloggers that are rooting for the pink and yellow combo?! Hahah, forever alone huh? Palm print seems to be more okey though, so happy that people dare to wear more print at least. Can’t wait to see your daily style again Jalisa, not long now!! Xx
I love this post!
Have a lovely day,

I totally want to pair something midi with high shoes! I need to pick up some new laceup gladiators. Unfortunately I’m currently on a shopping ban as I went a little crazy in Europe lol. I mean when it Rome right and quite literally =P.

Hahah oh my Rina!?! Can’t wait to see everything you bought though haha, love your style! Xx
I don’t know if I can get on board the socks and shoes train, but I love straw and tropical print items!
Hahah it seems to be a do or don’t to people, either you love it or hate it! Xx
I think I need to incorporate a little more pink and yellow into my outfit mix!
Do so! The combo is so cute! Xx
Loving these trends- so fresh for summer! ๐

Fresh is definitely the word! Xx
Tropical print and straw is probably my current favorite combo. It just screams summer to me.

They’re so much fun though, so many chic ones to choose from! Xx
Hahaha I don’t think I could ever get on board with the socks and sandals trend. It looks fab on others but on me I feel like I look confused!

Hahah oh no! Perhaps you haven’t found the right combo yet?! Xx
Oooh, I do hope Fall brings patent leather back. It’s been a minute. I think it will. The new resort collections have been featuring it enough. Midi lengths and heels, and socks and shoes will never go out of style! Both are always perfect combinations, at least in my opinion.

I think patent leather will come back too, haha I have a long list of clothes I want to see the material in. Haha perhaps it’ll only be you and me Amber, but hey! Xx
Absolute love the tropical look. And straw bags are so lovely and sweet…

Straw bags are too cute, love their vintage vibe! Xx
I love these trend ideas! Patent leather accessories are the best!

They’re so good huh?! Love the edge they’re bringing! Xx
I’m definitely digging the tropical and straw vibes this summer! I think palm and banana leaves are a forever kinda love for me and straw is always cute! It’s funny you should mention socks and shoes as I have some cute socks but haven’t been daring enough to try this still… I’ll see what I can do over the next few weeks ๐ As for me, I’m into anything with Pinapples ;p xxx
Banana leaves and straw is just a match made in heaven. Love the duo! And I would love to see your cute socks, so you have to style them! Xx
Gosh summer is my favorite time of the year,
all those different and eyecatchy Trends, Details and clothes.
Lovely. Thanks for this Inspiration.
with love your AMELY ROSE
Right? So many fund and chic looks to work. Fashion gets way easier! Xx
Tropical and straw go together like nutella and pancakes! That is such a beautiful fail proof combination, makes me want to find a tropical printed piece ASAP. As for the rest, I really love patent, but I only got a pair of OTK boots in that garment, and they wouldn’t be the smartest choice for summer, haha. Wishing you a great day! xx

Hahah so true though!! I know you’ll work it so well. Hahah perhaps not, but a low pair would surely do haha, so chic! Xx
I have been seeing all these trends everywhere and have been loving them all! This summer will be a good fashion season.

Thank you so much! Xx
I like the tropical + straw combo–that one shouts “Summer!!!” for sure. I am with you on liking pink as a base–blush pink especially works surprisingly well with so many other colors. I have yet to pair it with yellow, but maybe I’ll get there!
Oh you can do it, no doubt! You’re so well with colors! Xx
Excellent post!! Leather and denim is one of my favourite combinations for sure!

It’s a classic, love the edge it has! Xx
Mia,
I totally agree that even if you are not going anywhere tropical, that doesn’t mean you can’t embrace the patterns and accessories! Straw accessories are SO on trend right now! Love them!

It’s a lovely trend period atm! Xx
I am so happy that I found your website, really like it. The theme and the way it’s organised. Regarding trends for this summer, I am usually adopting the socks and shoes one and patent leather and denim so far. Thanks for the tips:)

Thank you so much love! That makes me so happy to hear <3 Patent leather and denim is a great combo indeed, love it! Xx
I love all the summer details, but honestly I think that I tend to gravitate towards winter/autumn style and colours all year round. I did get a few tropical prints this year though for our holiday, which was definitely a first for me – it made me feel so adventurous! I also love the idea of pink and yellow combos – it’s something that you don’t see very often but it’s just so summery and girly. Thanks for sharing your lovely ideas as always, hun! Hope you’re having a lovely week so far xoxo

I am currently trying to work the ‘midi length and high shoes,’ so I feel super proud this morning ๐ Love all of these trends – although, I’m going to challenge myself to try the patent leather and denim because I haven’t. Happy Wednesday!
