EQUESTRIAN FASHION S ummer Style with Love Not sure which fashion trends to rock this summer? Equestrian, country and lifestyle PR & Social Marketing agency, MirrorMePR, share three of their favourite catwalk trends for this summer (and even some you can try in the saddle). VINTAGE - OK, we get it. Most of our wardrobe could easily be vintage, given the fact that we all have those wardrobe favourites that we simply can't bear to give up! However, if we are talking fashion trends, then retro styling is back. Last season it was the '70's, and now it's the '80's. So how do you translate this look to your riding wear? We'd say go for pretty pastels and prints and concentrate on taking advantage of the big '80's trend of emphasising the waist. Choose bling belts to team with your breeches for a hot to trot look. For life away from the horse, pick statement jewellery pieces and soft tailoring. Easy to wear and dress up or down, this '80's trend doesn't have to be all Duran Duran, you can tone it down to make this look wearable without it being fancydress! 18 PENCIL THIS Nothing screams 'ladylike' more than a pencil skirt, and these are HUGE for the,summer. Flattering on curves and gorgeous to wear with heels, boots, brogues or sandals we're in love with the tailored tweed versions of these. Choose pretty pastel tones for a summer feel and team with lace for a gorgeous feminine take on this timeless classic. DENIM DELIGHTS Yes, your favourite pair of denim jeans are back on trend (were they ever out we ask?) Wear the double denim look for maximum fashion styling marks or, if you're not feeling hugely brave, keep an eye out for denim dresses and denim tailoring. Wear this look brilliantly as casual or dress it up with heels and a handbag for a look which is set to stay. Oh, and dark denim is the big blues story here. Keep an eye out for denim breeches to ensure your riding wear keeps pace with the fashionistas.
