What was 'in' for your summer

I am sure I asked this last year, cant find post now though.

I am trying to work out if we are a season ahead or behind Europe when it comes to what's in for the summer, winter etc...

We are coming into summer now, and its just tassles!! Seems to be the thing this year. Everything has tassles on, leather waistcoats, tshirts with the tassels the bottom, tassles on the sides, tassles on shoes. Handbags. I was just looking for plain t-shirts, seems like its near on impossible!

And these poufy skirts. Below knee length, and so wide. They look just awful on some I am sorry to say. I was convinced that the shop assistant was about to give birth as she looked so heavily pregnant. She bent down and then could see it was just all skirt....

Not that I will be wearing either of the above, it just seems to be ridiculous that plain simple things are nearly non existent.

Sounds awful! Leather waiscoats with tassles Hmm
Apart from a few t-shirts I didn't buy any summer clothes this year, summer has been hit and miss, so glad I didn't waste any money. I've worn ankle boots more often than flip flops and sandals so far.

I wore loads of colour. So bright Saltwater sandals, bright tops etc.
