As you have probably noticed, punk and grunge styles are coming back next season. Tartan shirts are a key trend for Fall/Winter 2013-2014, but so are leather, ripped jeans, biker jackets and black&red colours. You can wear the trend before Fall thank you to low-cost stores such as Zara or Mango. I've chosen the best items for you! ;)

Como ya os habréis dado cuenta, los estilos punk y grunge vuelven a estar de moda. Las camisas con estampado tartán (cuadros) son una de las principales tendencias para este otoño/invierno de 2013-2014, como también lo son el cuero, los pantalones con rotos, las cazadoras tipo biker y la combinación de negro+rojo. Podemos llevar la tendencia antes de que llegue el otoño gracias a tiendas low-cost como Zara o Mango. ¡He seleccionado las mejores piezas para vosotras!

1. Rihanna for River Island tied shirt denim shorts
2. Pull&Bear ripped jeans / Vaqueros con rotos de Pull&Bear
3. Pull&Bear vest / Chaleco de Pull&Bear
4. Bershka plaid shirt / Camisa de cuadros de Bershka

I'm already wearing the grunge/punk trend, as you have seen in my outfits with my boyfriend's plaid shirt and my new Topshop boots with buckles. A coat like the ones designed by Phoebe Philo or Stella McCartney would be beyond amazing... (I hope Zara copy that!). And you, are you wearing this trend too?

Yo ya estoy llevando la tendencia grunge/punk, como habéis visto en mi outfit con la camisa de cuadros de mi chico y con mis nuevos botines con hebillas de Topshop. Un abrigo como los que han diseñado Phoebe Philo o Stella McCartney sería espectacular... (esperemos que Zara los copie!!). Y vosotras, ¿os animáis con esta tendencia?

Some days ago, I posted about the showroom held by Arnotts Dublin in their press event to show the Fall/Winter 2013 collections. After the gorgeous welcome breakfast, we sat to enjoy a fashion show in which we could see the three key trends for next season: New Grunge, Femme Fatale and Flirtatious 50's.

Hace poco os enseñaba el showroom del evento de prensa que organizó Arnotts en Dublín para mostrar sus colecciones de otoño/invierno 2012-2013. Después del magnífico desayuno de bienvenida, tomamos asiento para disfrutar de un desfile en el que pudimos ver las tres grandes tendencias para la próxima temporada: el estilo Grunge, el look Femme Fatale y los años 50.

Arnotts claims that the key trend for Fall 2013 is the Femme Fatale look, in a feminine and glamurous 40's style. This tailored trend emphasises the waist with fitted skirt suits and long slim pencil skirts

Arnotts afirma que la principal tendencia para el otoño de 2013 es el look Femme Fatale, en un estilo años 40 muy femenino y glamuroso. Esta tendencia realza la cintura con trajes con faldas ajustadas y largas faldas entubadas.

Finally, as you probably already know, Grunge is back! Punk-inspired style is hevaily street influenced where laid back slouchy styling is crucial. Plaid shirts (a plus point if you wrap your shirt around your hips), mini kilts, biker jackets and leather pants are essential.

Finalmente, como seguramente ya sabréis, vuelve el grunge! Este estilo junto al punk recibe influencias de la calle, donde un estilo relajado y desgarbado es crucial. Las camisas con estampado a cuadros (ganaréis un punto más si las colocáis alrededor de vuestras caderas), minifaldas, chaquetas tipo biker y pantalones de cuero son esenciales.
