Today I’m going to introduce one hot trend making waves in the fashion world at the moment—the food-inspired looks and some tips on how to incorporate elements of food into your everyday summer look.

Among other “it” summer fashion trends, food-inspired looks are trending at the moment. Food-inspired printed summer wardrobe staples as well as accessories were seen all over the runways for Summer 2014, and it’s time to try out the trend for yourself. First up, summer tops featuring food-inspired prints are super popular this season. Pull out those printed shirts long buried in the back of your closet and see if you have any top featuring food-inspired designs. To glam up your office wear, ditch your everyday white button-down for a cool summer tee featuring anything and all things tasty. This season, food-inspired t-shirts, lightweight seasonal sweaters, sweatshirts, and hoodies come in all colors and designs—so choose your favorite style and instantly rock a runway look. For instance, you can do a little mix and match of formal and casual items and put together a chic office outfit. Swap the usual white button-down for a lightweight grey sweatshirt featuring dessert-inspired prints like giant cupcakes or plush ice cream cones. Team up the sweatshirt with a pencil skirt or formal pants and create an unexpected twist to the outfit.

If you find the big bold prints to be a little in your face, choose summer tops featuring smaller and more subtle food-inspired prints. For the office, opt for a white elegant sleeveless silk top featuring small prints of strawberries. Team up the top with a pair of simple high-waisted black slacks and complete the look by adding a pair of silver stilettos. Remember, food-inspired prints come in every color, style, and size—ice-cream-themed designs like cookies and cream, mint and chip, sherbet as well as cupcakes, pancakes, along with a variety of candy and fruit-themed designs are among the popular designs this season.

If you are not a big fan of rocking printed tops, you can always start with accessories. Incorporate food-inspired summer accessories—everything from food inspired phone cases to jewelries into your everyday look. Mix and match food-inspired jewelry like necklaces and earrings with ice-cream, cookie, waffle, cupcake, or hamburger pendants and also play with food-inspired bags like a watermelon clutch and instantly juice up your outfit.
