back-to-school (clothing) trends: from glamchix


More from Courtney’s post on Glamchix.com  on what to to wear this fall as you return to school.  Today she shares what’s cool in print pants and hi-low dresses

Prints are in: Bold colors, polka dots, psychedelic paisleys, graphic prints, everything. Plain old blue jeans just won’t do. Instead of the usual black skinny jeans, stand out in a pair of floral print jeans. Printed pants make it easy to keep your outfit interesting and exciting even when you don’t have the energy to put any effort into getting dressed in the morning. Throw on some printed jeans with a t-shirt or over-sized sweater and you automatically look fashion-forward. It’s as easy as that.

Hi-low Dresses

Maxi dresses were really popular for a while, but this year try out something a little more interesting. Hi-low hems (long in back, shorter in front) have an easy sophistication about them. They have movement and fluidity that you don’t get with maxi-length dresses. They’re also better for late summer and early fall, because they’re long enough to wear to school but short enough to keep you from getting too warm or bogged down by fabric. Put on a cute dress with a hi-low hem and a cardigan and you’re ready for school.
