Long time no fashion friday! Sheesh this blog started to look like a beauty ONLY blog and in my opinion its a disgrace seeing that fashion runs in my blood and I have to research clothing and textiles all day and make clothes. See how I get off topic as always? Now to chill with my rambling and let me tell you about the recent trend that’s been seen in every store/online store, celebrities and fashion bloggers OOTD.

As you might have picked up from the title of this post, today I’m talking Tartan. The perfect trend setting the tone for Autumn and transcending into Winter. To me this trend just captures AW14 perfectly. With garments that gives off a hint of tartan or garments that goes full on tartan crazy, there’s definitely something for everyone.

Today I’ve put together a list of my ultimate tartan pieces that I’ve been spotting and it just shows how one can slightly incorporate the trend into one’s outfit or go bold. I’m totally loving the hint of tartan in the Boyfriend Jeans from Legit and I think its an absolute MUST HAVE for the upcoming winter months.

♥Shirt – Foschini. ♥Heels – Zando. ♥Dress – Mr Price. ♥ Cropped Jacket – Mr Price. ♥ Handbag – Spree. ♥ Boyfriend Jeans – Legit. ♥ Leggings – Truworths. ♥ Tear Drop Pumps – Mr Price.

Now of course I had to go celeb scouting for this post and see which celebs have been embracing this trend and as per my good friend Google, Rita Ora seems to be queen of tartan. She’s just about worn this trend in every way possible from Chic to laid back “gangster”. This chick knows her stuff. I’m totally adoring her wearing the tartan trend.

Best of all is you don’t have to be a fashionista to rock this trend, its been around since forever. So will Tartan be making an appearance in your AW2014 wardrobe? Gimme a YAY or a NAY!
