THE STYLE TRIBE HAS SPOKEN

Ethnic print has been one of  seasons and the previous seasons growing trends. The fashion savvy individuals has made these prints as their new checks or stripes for the summer season. Whether it's the native inspiration of the Navajo Indians and Mayan or Aztec prints, this indigenously chic  look is really enigmatic and unique.

On the high fashion end of the rector scale of this print you saw in various international fashion brands (the likes of Missoni, Etro, Burberry to name a few) all played around with tribal prints for their Spring/Summer 2011 collections. There have been great efforts to reinvent the American Indian's look. Making  it tough, modern, elegant and super chic. Their interpretation of the native American  style is so appealing. Delivering wonderful abstract patterns which bring  touch of worldliness and mystery of far away places that anyone would love to discover. Just recently while surfing the net I discovered these amazing shirts from ASOS (is the UK's largest online-only fashion and beauty store). Here, let me show you boys & gals what I've been drooling over lately.

The most excellent way to add a dash of pattern and a jolt of color to our style ensembles is through ethnic prints.   Try to keep it simple, concentrating on assembling specific ethnic items such as a  traditional Navajo print shirt/Aztec print shirt and more. Learn to pair 'em with  neutrals (white, creams, tans, black) or denim, for a bit of rock n’ roll edge. The last option – and possibly the most difficult – is to team your print with a contrasting print. It might not be your cup of tea but yes, it can be done! Bear in mind that while you might be taking cues from an exotic tribe, you've still got to fit in with your own style tribe.
