La España

As you all know I recently took un vieja to Spain (you should've paid attention in Spanish I). I had such a fabulous time exploring the local style. There were 3 reoccurring trends that Spain was in abundance of:


1. Harem pants (AKA Hammer pants)
I love these cool free flowing pantalones but the women in Spain wear every single style, variation, and fabric imaginable. I saw jumpsuits with Harem pant bottoms (no!), denim Harem pants (hell no!)...silk, fleece...you name it, they had it! I can't ladies...keep it simple with these styles.

2. Glasses
As I strolled the streets of Barcelona I noticed that most of the women wore glasses. I interviewed a women and asked in my broken Spanglish if it was a local trend. She answered back, "No, we wear them because we really need them!" So apparently they're up on their optometry appointments.

3. Bangs!
I too am a "bang" girl....but seems as though I was amongst the masses while abroad. They wore them heavy and precisely cut. There is nothing worse than a girl who needs her bangs trimmed...or the bang is too skimpy. Don't try these at home!
