New Year, Same Trends

Happy New Year my Mod Little Melanins!

This week on The Mod Little Melanin, I'll be highlighting trends that will be making an appearance in 2018! First up is the Sports Luxe trend!

This trend has been popular since 2016, and is a favorite trend of well-known celebrities like Kim Kardashian-West, Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner. To rock the Sports Luxe trend, you'll need to incorporate several pieces into your wardrobe; faux fur, metallic pieces such as harem pants or a metallic top, and a pair of neutral tennis shoes.

I based my entire look around my taupe, Fenty-inspired tennis shoes that I received as a Christmas gift. You can find these shoes in a variety of colors, including pink and black on sale now at Rue 21. The trick to pulling off a Sports Luxe inspired look is to make one article of clothing your focal point, while keeping the remainder of your look simple and crisp.

For my look, I choose my faux fur coat from Forever 21 to be my focal point. Underneath my coat, I wore a pair of high-waisted jeans from Old Navy and a athleisure style top from Forever 21. All sale items are currently buy one, get one free at Forever 21!

I completed the look by adding at a dark lip, this color is from Forever 21, and a silver hoop earring.

Have a Happy New Year!
