Spring Trends: Mix, Don’t Match

mixdontmatch

While color blocking may have been all the rage to make a bold statement a couple of years ago, mixing prints is definitely the new daring. Before you dive into this fashion-forward trend, just heed a few pieces of advice to make sure you pull off a hot look and not a hot mess.

outfit1

When you have a printed top and bottom, bring in some neutral accessories to avoid overdoing it. The woven bag in this outfit gives the clothing center stage but has it’s own subtle detail that makes the complete look very chic.

Leaf Print Tunic (Topshop $90) | Striped Midi Skirt (Topshop $60) | Alexander Wang Sandals (Saks Fifth Avenue $525) | Bottega Veneta Bag (Saks Fifth Avenue $3,750)

Stripes in any color are perhaps the easiest print with which to pair. Plus, they can be dressed up or down. This outfit is breezy and chic with printed joggers, chunky wedges and an oversized tote.

Billabong Turn Away Pant (Backcountry $44.95) | Hurley Tank Top (Backcountry $29.95) | Steve Madden Wedges (Onlineshoes.com $79.95) | Oversize Tote (Karen Millen $499)

outfit3

When you’ve got a large area of print going on and you want to play it down for daytime, a sleek black or neutral blazer is your go-to. Plus, printed shoes are always an easy way to experiment with prints.

Nieve Dress (Reiss $320) | American Vintage Blazer (The Hut $199.95) | Bella Vita Leona Heels (ShoeBuy $99.95) | Soho Bracelet Set (Macy’s $58)

Ebates Fall Fashion Guide

Boots, scarves, sweaters, oh my!

With NYFW in full swing, the Ebates team is sharing their favorite fall fashion trends. We have an excellent Double Cash Back sale featuring amazing deals at fashion forward stores so that you can have a fashionable fall without breaking the bank.

Below are some of our favorite trends that we are looking forward to enjoying through the colder months.

embellishedboots_2

 

Add a little sparkle to your step with some embellished boots. These natural boots have the tinniest cap toe – adding the perfect embellishment to carry these boots from daytime to night. The studs on these boots scream rocker chic and can add a fun edginess to any outfit. These sleek black booties are the epitome of city chic – smooth leather, great sole, shiny detail. These trendy boots bring the embellishment to a whole new place – part of the heel. With unique details like that, these will surely turn heads.

graphics_2

 

We can all rejoice that comfort appears to be in season, but with a fun twist. Graphic tees and sweatshirts appear to be having a fashionable moment. This flirtatious shirt would look awesome with a variety or pants and skirts. Throw a white button down or chambray shirt under this foxy sweater – instant preppy chic! Pair this ferocious tee with a statement necklace and black skinny jeans for a polished, rockin look. This versatile tiger sweater can be styled in any of the aforementioned way for a look that is trendy and classic.

leatheraccents

 

One of the trends that we are most excited about is leather or faux leather accents. They add an element of surprise to classic shapes and pieces. This jacket combines two classic coat fabrics, leather and denim, to make one amazing piece of outerwear. This blouse is full of beautiful contradictions – preppy tweed meets rocking leather. This gray vegan option takes colorblocking to a new level. A striped boyfriend cardigan gets taken to a whole new level with leather sleaves.

military_2

 

Another trend we are loving is military inspired. Not just camouflage printed items, but all sorts of military inspired cuts are gracing the storefronts this season. The shoulders of this blouse give a subtle military feel. This blouse is much more bold in its inspiration. It surely will make a statement paired with neutral pieces. This Old Navy coat brings some military inspired colors and shapes at a great price. This vest would make an awesome layering piece as the season changes.

sneakers_2

These high top embellished kicks create a great contrast between glam and comfort. The neutral colors make them easy to pair. They may be a bit flashy, but the gold+red accents give these sneakers a rose gold look, a unique hue. These high top denim sneakers are super versatile – easily pair them with black jeans, light jeans, skirts or dresses. In one of the Fall’s hottest hues, these burgundy sneakers have some great bling contrasting laces.

 

olive_2

 

While it overlaps with the military inspired pieces, olive seems to warrant a mention of its own. The dark green color scream cool and chic. This studded sweater is a great statement piece. This colorblock coat is as chic as it comes – the olive is holding its own next to the black and gray. Commit to olive with this comfortable and classic shirtdress.  Olive makes for a great alternative to other neutrals when it comes to booties.
