Whether you’re a fashion queen or mildly interested in the latest trends, chances are you’ll want to be a part of this season’s must-have looks. However, such trends can be intimidating or leave you wondering exactly how to wear it and what to wear with it. Luckily for you, the following guide will give you all the insider info on this season’s newest threads and how to properly wear them.

Even if you’ve never been to Africa, you can bring the spirit of the safari home by sporting safari prints. Fashion designers have taken an exceptional liking to such prints and they are currently gracing the catwalks all over the world. For the everyday woman, you can also enjoy a beautiful safari outfit with little to no effort. You can find dresses, blouses, and skirts inspired by Africa and colonial India in a variety of delicate fabrics and styles, including animal and block prints, contrasting earth tones, and intricate wooden beads. When wearing such styles, pair them with open toed shoes or sandals that are basic in color and design in order to put a modern twist on it. Safari outfits also look great with a tan or on naturally brown/dark skin.

Also in style this year are printed blouses. While this fashion item may seem easy to build an outfit around, there are some tips you’ll want to take note of. Jeans are the easiest way to wear printed blouses but if you want to upgrade your fashion sense, try wearing your printed blouse in place of your regular camisole, especially under a tailored jacket. This creates an ultra feminine look. Avoid wearing this type of printed blouse with loose pants, or else you’ll disappear behind all the fabric.

Want to show off your legs this season? Then you’ll want to do so in a full mini skirt. Unlike the traditional mini, full minis aren’t skin tight and often come with pleats or tiers so you don’t have to built like a supermodel in order to pull this look off. What you will want to do, however, is pair your full mini with a structured or fitted top to create a contrast between the pleats or tiers. Colors work for this outfit, so feel free to rock those heeled booties. Avoid slingbacks, pumps or closed flats, since these styles don’t mesh. Another great way to bring attention to your legs this season is by sporting soft shorts. The great thing about this new take on shorts is that the fabric and style allow it to be worn virtually anywhere, including a dinner date or at a party. Be sure to pair your soft shorts with a belted or tailored jacket and a tucked in shirt. Finish off your look by adding heels or open, strappy sandals.

To keep things simple, there is also the option of wearing silk. This delicate fabric is becoming quite popular with designers and allows for a simpler way to dress without looking underdone. The key to pulling off a silk outfit is to keep it simple. Avoid over accessorizing and feel free to play up your eyes with a smoky eye look but keep lips nude or softer in color.
