Unwind Your Mind: Final Trend Boards

After weeks of work, my trend boards are finished. There are 7 in total: theme, mood, color, looks, accessories, fabrics, and non fashion. My overall theme for the boards is "Unwind your mind: comfort in a concrete jungle."

Living in a city gets hectic sometimes, and my trend focuses on the need for peace within chaos. Sometimes we need to turn inward and recenter ourselves before we get back to our crazy lives. Unwind your mind's looks are about loose and luxurious fabrics and shapes reminiscent of bed time. The colors are soothing and peaceful, no neons here.

As you follow the journey of the boards, consider that because more people are living in cities than ever before unwinding your mind now and then becomes ever more important. Naps are on the rise, and nap pods have cropped up in some cities to give worker bees a brief escape from the office. Being stressed is horrible for your skin, heart, and overall health. As stress levels of city dwellers rise, I really see finding inner peace catching on in metropolises across the globe more important than ever. Enjoy
