trnd Travel // The New It Spots

In an age where mainstream is decreasing in popularity, lesser known travel spots are beginning to seem more enticing to tourists. The concept of traveling in general is leaning more towards "getting away from it all" rather than visiting well known, crowded hot spots. According to The Venue Report, here are a few off the beaten path locations to consider for your next trip!

1. Borneo Instead Of Thailand

2. Valle de Guadalupe Instead Of Napa

3. Cappadocia Instead Of Istanbul

4. St. John Instead Of St. Barts 

5. Islamorada Instead Of Tulum

SS 17 Validation Report // Dressing In Primary Colors

We're back again with a fun trend we predicted in our Spring/Summer 2017 Contemporary Market forecasts.

We saw dressing in primary colors as a recurring theme on the runway, from designers like Lisa Perry, to Adam Selman, to DSquared2. 

Now that Spring 2017 has rolled around, we're seeing it everywhere from on the streets, in magazines, in social media and much more. Check out our side by side below, which features our original prediction in our trnd forecast as well as our favorite current examples of fashionistas dressing in primary colors!

Mini CRSSD Fashion Show at El Camino

We joined Stroll Boutique, Child of Wild, and Hyde Edwards Salon and Spa Thursday night at El Camino. They came together to present a mini fashion show inspired by festival season before CRSSD Festival comes to San Diego next weekend. 

Not only did they show off head to toe festival looks, but they also featured an in-event pop up shop and raffled off tickets to CRSSD Fest to one lucky winner.
