Keeping it Natural and Hot for July

Earlier this year we covered some of the HoTTest trends for Spring and Summer 2011. 
One of those trends featured Tribal prints, wedge heels, and of course nature inspired accessories (wooden bracelets, metal inspired earrings, etc.) 
For July 2011 it looks like all of those trends are colliding to one look. .Natural and Beautiful.

Colors:
 July's fashion trend tends to be white or light in neutrals and naturals, with linen or cotton featured as a favorite fashion fabric. 

Tips on how to keep Sophisticated and Fly:
Choose clothing that's White or light in color to reflect the sun's rays.
Opt for cotton or linen fabrics to keep cool.


To keep wrinkles at a minimum, choose cotton or linen blends.


Great choices for natural summer style include jewelry with wooden beads, shoes with cork heels, and handbags made of straw. It's all about an easy, breezy month, with a light neutral color palette ruling the day.
