Timeless Fashion Trend: Crochet

By Elma B.



Whether wearing dresses, skirts or tops, crochet pieces remain timeless. You can be romantic, boho, or just effortlessly chic in crochet. Crochet is light and comfortable especially during warm spring and summer days. It is up to you how to combine it with the rest of your ensemble, i.e., how you accessorize and what color combinations you choose. Personally, I like neutral crochet pieces, mainly black, white and beige, which you can combine with almost any outfit. 

Here are a five styling tips on how you can wear crochet pieces:

1. Wrap. Wear a crochet wrap over whenever you are waring something tight, e.g., a dress, skirt or a top, to loosen-up your look and make it look more natural and effortless.

4. Crochet cover over your bikini. 


5. Crochet bikini. (Personally, I would not suggest wearing a crochet bikini because it is not elastic at all so it does not dry very well after dipping into the water.
