Patched Up

Patches, which were once a 90’s staple has recycled itself here in 2016. This trend has been  done in different styles such as leather, denim, and your ever so popular bomber jacket. Not only does this showcase fashion but also leads the way for person expression and customization. This style can be easily obtained but can go wrong if not done right. Due to the clutter of patches on a particular item, styling is key, keeping in mind that less is best. The jacket should be the staple piece and the rest of the outfit to be built around it. This trend has been seen in several collections this year including Gucci’s summer collection that showcased a variety of patched denim jackets, jeans, shoes, and leather jackets. As well as brands like Zara and Asos. Photo’d here is the Lip stick Leather patch jacket from Sisters Unique Boutique where you can find fashionable finds for a reasonable price.
