pick of the best: fringing

Welcome to a new item for the blog; pick of the best! Each week I will choose a key trend, or a style that I'm particularly admiring at the moment, and share some of my favourite items with you.

Everybody knows that this summer the 1970's are making a huge comeback; this means bright colours, denim flares and festival chic - which leads me, of course, to fringing! The high street is already going mad for this trend, with plenty of fringed bags, tassled loafers and distressed tees having hit the stores in time for Spring, so here are some of the items I'm currently lusting over.


Leather Fringe Backpac, £60 (Sales), Urban Outfitters

Coral Lace Fringed Crop Vest, £26, Topshop

Sand Fringed Side Denim Shorts by Unique, £70, Topshop

Brown Fringed Flat Loafer Shoes, £39.99, River Island

House of Holland Dress with Fringe Strap, £485, ASOS


Eleven Paris Fringed T-Shirt, £65, ASOS

Okay, the House of Holland dress is slightly expensive but I love it so much that I just had to include it! It's nice to dream anyway.

What do you all think about the fringed trend? Is it the ultimate addition for boho chic, or too try-hard festival fashionista?

    They're great aren't they?! I have a similar pair in patent black from Topshop, but the River Island pair would be so perfect for summer!

    Yeah I agree, I think I'll definitely be sticking to fringed accessories...rather than denim hotpants!

    The loafers seem to be a popular choice with everyone! They are really lovely!

    I went to Primark recently and couldn't find anything decent :( Usually I think they're really great for bags and accessories...I might risk the giant Oxford Street one this week
