I recently noticed that the oriental trend has been featured in many editorials so I thought I would do a post on it. Now, this trend can be interpreted in many ways. You could take it really literally and wear a kimono inspired top or you could take elements from the style such as satin material or cherry blossom prints for a more subtle look...
There are several key ingredients you need to pull off this oriental look:
1. Satin material
2. Oriental floral prints such as cherry blossoms
3. Kimonos - you know those tops/dresses that look kinda like bathrobes but a million times more elegant
4. Either intense or pastel colours
Here are some oriental inspired pieces on the high street...
