Fashion Challenge: Wear Something Crocheted

                                                         Rihanna Wearing Crocheted!!!:)
In tune with this season’s emerging ’70s-inspired fashion trends, crocheted tops, vests, and dresses are popping up everywhere. Though crochet might have earned a reputation as an old lady favorite, there’s an easy way to pull off this trend and still look edgy and cool. With spring weather upon us, there’s no better time to try out this lightweight sweater material.       
Some Tips and Tricks for Wearing Crocheted Items:
*  Don’t pair crocheted clothing with too other many “hippie” trends, such as wooden platforms, bell bottoms, a hippie headband, or a peasant top. One other hippie-esque item is fine, but rock too many, and you risk looking like you’re wearing a costume.
* For a risk-free way to try this trend without going all-out, look for dresses with crocheted embellishments. Since crochet is already part of the outfit, it’ll be a no-brainer to style.
* To keep from looking Grandma-esque, pair crochet pieces with tougher items like leather, denim, or boots. Floral print can sometimes look too delicate and girly with crochet for most people’s taste.
* Look for crocheted scarves, beanies, and other accessories for just a pop of the trend.
That's all I have for now but knowing me I'll keep you guy's updated on the hottest styles and trends.
