“Fashion is something that goes in one year and out the other.” – Denise Klahn
Everyone knows that fashions change. Every season there’s a new look, and so it’s no surprise that many people just give up and stick with the “jeans and t-shirt”, safe outfit. That’s why Today’s Teen is here! In this article, we’ve listed the first two trends we’ll see in this back-to-school season.
Print Bottoms
No, don’t go tattooing your butt – one of this season’s hottest looks is printed skirts, jeans, and tights. It’s a trend to approach with caution, as it will be easy to over-do this look. When it comes to big patterns, remember: less is more!
Bohemian. Look 1.
The first look has a bohemian, casual feel that would be perfect for a long day sitting in class followed by an afternoon with the girls.
Floral pants ($25), Denim top (38 Euros), Heart belt ($24), Oxfords ($30)
Classic. Look 2.
The second outfit is a more classic, vintage look that is dressy enough for a date or dinner.
Floral leggings ($25), Dress ($25), Kitten heels ($23)
Back-to-School. Look 3.
The last look has a back-to-school feel with a fun and colorful twist.
Tiered skirt ($30), Blouse ($40), Knee-high socks ($14), Red oxfords ($38)

Military
The military look comes and goes frequently, but this season it seems to be everywhere! This is an easy look to grab because so many lower-priced stores are carrying it (ex. Delia*s, Wet Seal, Alloy).
Basic. Look 1.
The first look has a typical military feel, yet is given an edge with its fun, pink colors.
Military jacket ($62), Cargo pants ($50), Whistle necklace ($16), Dr. Marten’s boots ($115)
Army Feel. Look 2.
For the second look, I tried to convey a vintage, WW2 army feel. It has more classic lines, and isn’t that belted pouch awesome?
Dress ($25), Pouch belt ($30), Military hat ($16), Boots ($60)
Casual Cadet
The third look as a very wearable feel. Its touch of military is enough to complete the look without looking like you signed up for boot camp.
Faux leather jacket ($36), Cropped top ($20), Brown skirt ($18),Taupe Converse ($86)
Which trend would you wear? Which outfit was your favorite? Is there a piece you already have that would work with this look? Let me know!
I absolutely love the last outfit in the first category. But I have to say everything else you have showed isn’t as impressive. For the Military look category just because when your on the site it says military doesn’t mean that thats something you should showcase just because it’s “Military.” Show something that is style worthy. It would be more appreciated by your public viewers.
