This year’s fashion forecast is bent on minimalism. This is in tune with the world’s economic situation. For glitzy events, clutch handbags are practical and stylish accessories you cannot be seen without. A simple sheath dress can be complemented by one of those clutches for that simple but elegant look.

Remember, simplicity is the key. Like always, simplicity is more of a mainstay in fashion than a fad. Even makeup is low-key and the clean, no-makeup look will be the buzz. Night events, however, will require you to dress up your eyes a little bit. Neutral colors will make a comeback as bright colors go out of style.
