Fringe
Whether it’s bags, boots or anything in between, you are guaranteed to bring the ‘it’ factor to your outfit with this 70’s inspired trend.
Warning: use with caution. No more than one item in your ensemble should have a fringe embellishment.
Unless you’re attending a rodeo, of course, in which case fringe away. Yeehaw!
Lace
A little lace goes a long way.
Classic, romantic or boho, the versatility of the texture is what makes it one of the hottest trends of the summer season and beyond.
You can add your own unique twist with accessories, pair it with some leather for an edgy look or linen for a relaxed ensemble.

Bucket bags
The swinging silhouette of these purses give a bucolic allure to your look.
They’ve quickly become a blogger favourite – plus they give you lots of room to put all your stuff.
Wide-brimmed hats
Well, it seems the days of floral crowns are numbered.
Meet the new accessory du jour: the hat.
Bonus: it provides portable shade with sun protection, giving you a head start both in the beauty and fashion departments.
Raffia soles
Raffia-soled shoes put a rustic spring in your step.
These classic kicks take on different forms: sandals, espadrilles, flatforms – the list goes on, but the result is always classy chic.
As earthy as it gets, the shoes are made out of processed African raffia palms.
