Trend Spotting: Pleats

Spring is just around the corner and I'm already starting to covet some new spring items for my closet! One trend that has been cropping up in stores for this spring and summer is pleats. Mini pleats, pleated skirts, pleated shorts, dresses and blouses.

Guest Post, Coco & Vera: Ruby Red Trench


Hi! I'm Cee from Coco and Vera. I'm a Vancouver-based style blogger with a passion for all things Parisian. I'm so excited to be guest blogging for Bellissima this month. I paid a visit to their South Granville boutique in Vancouver to see their spring collections and the first thing that caught my eye was a ruby red trench coat from Solo Moda.

Time for a confession: When I was little, I watched Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? every day after school. Carmen Sandiego was a glamourous, enigmatic heroine, so elusive that she was almost never seen except from behind, as she was escaping capture. She inspired my fascination with travel, and she inspired my style; I've had a fondness for red trench coats and fedoras ever since. I think I could almost convincingly pull off a career as an international criminal mastermind in this coat. Not that I would want to - at least, not forever :)

In all seriousness, when it comes to glamour, you can't top this trench.

For those of you that travel you will find this a perfect addition to your wardrobe due to it's wash ability and wrinkle resiliency....not to mention the great value at $79.00.
