Maxi dresses have been a fashion trend for quite some time. They’re cool and effortless and a great way to beat the summer heat.

The new summer dress breakout trend for 2012? Hi Low dresses.
A Hi Low dress seamlessly blends the sexiness of a mini dress with the flowing elegance of a maxi dress. You’ll turn heads even in the most basic Hi Low dress; its uneven hemline is an instant attention getter. You can also dress them up or down with ease by switching out accessories.

From our friends at thefind.com:
Animal prints have made their way back onto the style scene after a few decades of being exiled to the realm of tacky extinguished fads, and now it’s time for animal graphics to get another chance in the style spotlight! Forget what you know about animal motifs and cheesy knit sweaters – these modernized, ironic takes on knitwear may be partly inspired by the horrendous gifts our grandmothers used to create for us every Christmas, but they’ve got a much better sense of humor. Cute, quirky, and perfectly cozy for the nippy fall weather ahead, animal motif sweaters are a fun way to add flair and character to an otherwise boring work ensemble. Tuck in to a pencil skirt for a silly meets sophisticated look, or rock with leather-effect coated jeans and some combat boots for a sweet-yet-edgy contrasting ensemble.
