♥ Fashion week is near… how to stay ahead with the catwalk trends? I’m spilling all my secrets.
There’s also a really cool editorial online, which you nééd to see ♥
Hi Lovelies, Amsterdam Fashion Week is near and I can’t wait to see all the new collections again! (And show them to you via sneak peeks) Also the preparations for Fashionweek are so much fun. Because of all the new trends, it might be hard sometimes to stay ahead. So, today: my simple steps to stay ahead on the Catwalk Trends ánd I’m showing you my trend outfit as well of course.
New Catwalk Trends
There’s always something new to be excited about. If it is an older trend coming back or a new bold item that is introduced. But, how do we get ahead of them, stay on top of the trends when they’re changing so often? It’s not easy, but it doesn’t have to be difficult. In fact, staying ahead of the catwalk trends is a lot easier than you would think. Every season there is a new trend. Whether you love them or hate them, trends can be something we want to stay ahead of each and every year.
Online details
One of the most traditional ways to keep ahead in the fashion industry is to go online. You can read online magazines such as fashion news online and read up on the details in paper-magazines too. By doing so, you can find a lot of information that will help to update your wardrobe for the next few months. You can also look at some older trends too to see what influences they used and what inspiration you can take from them as well.
Stay Social
A great way to stay on trend is regular checking of your social media. You can see impressions from catwalk shows, minutes after they appeared live. Also you can look at posts from the great designers such as Dior, Valentino and Dolce and Cabana. Also the celebs they usually set the trends. Of course you should check the leading fashion influencers and how they style the trends.
Edit through the noise
To get ahead on the trends is to take note of what is trending. After reading magazines and being active on social media, you have to be able to edit through the noise. There are a lot of trends each season, but not all of them will apply to you. You need to be able to take note of the new season items and figure out what works for you.
Stay True to you
After research and while editing, you need to remember to stay true to your own personal style. Yes, one trend might be dominating the catwalks and celebrities may love it. But the only way you can truly be fashion forward is to only wear what suits you. Not every trend will work for you.
Watch The Shows
Many of the shows now let you watch live. The live streams do allow you to edit the trends as you see them and work out what you might want to style when the season begins.


While shopping, I always keep in mind the latest trends. The ones above I kept in mind, while picking out my statement jacket from vanTilburgOnline. The puffy shoulders and stripes are going to be big this season and I absolutely love it. More and more, you’re it’s becoming a trend to just wear whatever you want and combine multiple prints and colors. I must say, it really makes the street more fun to look at this way.

As I said above.. I’m wearing this super cool jacket from Rinascimento, bought online by vanTilburgonline.nl . It’s really that statement jacket you need to have, to spice up your warderobe. No matter how you style it, it always looks cool. Style it off with some classy boots and you’re ready to go!
Via the fantastic Kleding.nl (by whom I was interviewed a little while ago, check it out on my press-page), I found out about Van Tilburg Online. They are the the biggest Fashionshop in the Netherlands. They have the most amazing brands online all on one site such as Calvin Klein, Diesel, G-star, JoshV, Kocca, Michael Kors, Nikkie, Only, the list goes on and on. Whether you have a big budget, or a not so big one.. you’ll always find something trendy. After reading about these catwalk trends tips, you’re probably thrilled to go shopping. Well, good news: they have an online January sale! Go check it out and score those musthaves.

I’ll be really honest with you- I’m not too into trends at all. I love them on other people but I tend to stick with what I know- vintage and color. I think once and a while it’s great to edit and find a trend that suits you! Good tips 🙂
These tips are so helpful! Especially because New York fashion week is around the corner! It’s definitely hard to keep up with all the news especially when you are attending the shows – all we have is to try, right?
Love your fashion week outfit so much!
Thank you love!
This is the true definition of taking a trend and making it your own. You are wearing that striped bomber. It is perfect on you!
So cute. I loving this outfit. I definitely need to keep up with the trends this spring.
I’ve always wanted to attend NYFW. You are so lucky! Can’t wait to hear about the events.
xo, Maryam
Such great tips! Attending or watching shows makes such a difference I think in your ability to pull your own ideas of trends and turn them into your own before they’ve been reproduced everywhere else! That’s awesome you’ll be attending! Love your look! Those pants fit you like a dream!

Love your bomber! I’m so excited for NYFW – I really have to finish sending out my show requests ASAP!

That’s so lucky!! I always wanted to attend a fashion show. I can’t wait to see your next blog post about the event.
Also you are SLAYINGG in that outfit!

Catwalk trends are a bit tricky as it’s meant for a show most of the time. I would definitely pick pieces from the collection, but I wouldn’t copy an exact outfit unless it was super stunning. I also want to explore my own creativity by styling things differently than the runway. 🙂
great tips dear, i really interested to hear about local designers.
That’s so cool that you’ll be attending Amsterdam Fashion Week! I can’t wait to hear your thoughts about it and perhaps some photos? I still haven’t attended Fashion week yet, so I wonder what it must be like. 🙂 I’m sure you’ll get a sneak peek of what will be trending for 2017.
Hello dear!
It’s so exciting hear about fahion tips and trends. I love Fendi looks and accessories.
Great inspiring with your similar jacket. keep us updated thanks 🙂

This is a lovley outfit <3 Also i love yout blog <3
and so happy to find you here
I really love this outfit. 🙂 Just perfect.
Wow these are seriously some great tips! Looks like you will be having a lot of fun babe 🙂
Fashion Weeks sure are fun and a good way to stay inspired. Just don’t let following trends be your main objective, but creating and following your own style! I love fashion shows, but would probably never wear an entire outfit as it is shown on the catwalk as that would be too much.
Keep us updated with Amsterdam FW! 🙂

I love this statement jacket you are wearing! so perfect for when you attend the shows 🙂 Thanks for sharing your tips on staying up to date on the trends, they were helpful!
Seriously love the bomber jacket and that Kate Spade bag. I always try to watch the shows either live or taped. Either that or I’ll go on Vogue and look at all the photos from my favorite designers.
