Trend Alert

PASTELS This spring/summer fashion decides to take a softer and airier approach according to colour and fabric. We finally move away from the bright reds and harsh yellows that came with colour blocking and opt for demure colour schemes whether combined together or used as a single garment in an outfit. On the runways we saw high end designers like Louis Vuitton apply pastels to a 1920's inspired theme which consisted of dainty lace details, organza and silk. On the other hand we saw edgy designers like 3.1Phillip Lim sticking to their edgy tom boyish rebellious aesthetic we're accustomed to using pastels, and still being effective without compromising the brand, this just goes to show how versatile this trend is and how any type of fashionista can invest in it this spring/summer.                      Louis Vuitton spring/summer collection 2012              3.1 Phillip Lim spring/summer collection 2012 FEMIN

  EDITORS NOTE… It just seems every time we put together an issue for our readers we are slowly but surely getting closer to the vision we want and a little better each time. I know this might sound forward on our part because we haven’t even heard what you have to say about this new post   but we feel as if when the inspiration for your spreads slowly starts to translate and become clearer you know you’re getting somewhere(We as the Pose team pride ourselves a lot when it comes to our spreads), with that said there is still tons of space for improvement in other aspects of the blog that is. In this Post we enjoyed exploring some of the many options of Public transportation in Cape Town despite of the freezing weather and stares from curious people that use public transport when we shot our fashion spread; in the end we were pleased with the results. We also took a brief look at one of the special market in Loop Street that happens once a month on Saturday morning
