Lust for Life’s Olivia Lopez: 5 Hot Trends for Summer

Olivia Lopez has got a Lust for Life.

Olivia is a Filipino-Chinese-Spanish American 18-year-old fashion blogger from Southern California. Recognized in the blog world for her free spirited and experimental style, it’s crazy to think that all this creativity comes from someone so young. As of right now, Olivia has 14,073 fans, and 153 looks on Lookbook.nu, not to mention a cult following on her blog site. With a spot as a guest blogger for Olsenboye as well as the numerous modeling gigs she has under her belt (she is the face of the latest Pain de Sucre lookbook shot by Harper’s Bazaar photographer Sylvie Malfray), she is definitely a face to look out for.

Just for Audrey, Olivia has put together a list of five hot trends for this upcoming summer season. Check it out after the jump.

1. White-on-white

“It’s clean, fresh, and there’s no better compliment to summer skin.”

2. Crochet knit dresses

“Whether it be mini or maxi, crochet knits paired with high-waisted/lace lingerie or thin slips are perfect for summer not only because of its air ventilation but due to its versatility. It can be worn with pretty much everything.”

3. Orange lipstick

“I’ve been an advocate of this for ages, but there is no better hue than orange to suit warm colors and loud summer prints.”

4. Gold accessories/gold watch

“Perfect accents to everything from a bikini to a sun dress, I wear mine all day from beach meandering, pool side lounging, brunch, to night dancing.”

5. Sheer maxi dresses

“So, so pretty and feminine. I’m really into this trend — it’s so comfortable to wear on breezy warm days and is so chic when it’s paired with gladiator sandals or high wedges. This is a MUST, and a versatile piece that can be dressed up or down for both day and night.”

There you have it. Lots of white, sheer, orange lips and gold accessories. Maybe you’re not going to bold enough to try all five trends at once, but sneak a little into your everyday wardrobe to set the trend for summer ’11 fashion.
