Back to School

by Anna BONTHOUX

Now is the perfect time for parents to get their kids fashionably ‘cool for school’ come September.

Current style trends cannot be ignored; they are bold, colorful, well put together but have an air of “individuality” and “anything goes”. We’re seeing the Creative Girls in spike-studded ballet flats, the Candy Lovers in neon-on-neon, and denim and backpacks in every print and color.

Texty tees have quirky statements like “I mustache you a question” and “I <3 Haters”. We are also seeing tons of scarves and accessories that give kids, especially the Glam Girls, a chance to define their own style.

Jeans for boys are still a narrowish straight leg to a skinny, but several brands have issued an ultra-skinny that Hipsters love. Meanwhile, the girls have never had a wider range of colors to choose from. This season you will see hints of tangerines, hot pinks, ultramarines to dusty roses.

There are also plenty of soft cotton jean leggings in all kinds of tribal and animal prints. Baggier boyfriend cuts are super cute rolled up with ballet flats. Hey girls, just remember skinnier cuts look best with looser tops but the boyfriend cuts look great with both loose and fitted tops.

Footwear is always a great way to mark your personal style. The Olympic Athletes sported a ton of neon trainers and we are seeing everything from the classic slip-on Vans on the Skater Boys to patten leather and neon Adidas high-tops. Ballet flats are out in everything from sequins to Navajo prints and nautical to leopard. Desert boots and beaded moccasins are everywhere too.

Layers and pattern mixing is always cool. The Prep Boys are leaning towards their favorite jeans with a plaid button-up over a striped tee with a denim or varsity jackets and a pair of slip-on Vans or Converse. The Techy Boys have replaced last year’s bold and colorful stripes with a more understated super-thin stripe and bowties, yes bowties! The Social Butterflies are loving looks; like flirty floral skirts mixed with denim button-up boyfriend shirts, wrists full of friendship bracelets and army jackets. These girls never forget their phones or their printed scarves.

Trends are all about personality and individuality. There are almost no rules to break as long as you are wearing what you like with confidence. So wear your heart on your jean jacket, your message on your t-shirt, your friends on your wrists and your personality on your feet.

Anna Bonthoux has been working in some facet of the fashion and entertainment industry since high school. Raised in the Fraser Valley this former Model, turned Model Scout, turned Model Agent, turned Artist Agent & Print Producer has recently launched yet another project called Rad Kids. Rad Kid is a street casted modeling division of non-conventional models. Anna’s career has given her the opportunity to work with top Creative Directors, Photographers, Models, Fashion Stylists, Makeup Artists and Hairstylists.
