No matter where you live, what your profession is, or how old you are, trends are something that everyone hears about on a daily basis. Everything is in constant motion and trends are no different. What is considered trendy one day, may be out the next. While we, at Amanda's House of Elegance, certainly don't recommend changing up your style every time a trend changes, getting a few new pieces every once in a while certainly won't hurt! We want you to be on-trend all year round! Here are the top 5 biggest trends of 2018 and how you can be part of the trend by coming down to Amanda's House of Elegance in downtown Kingston.
Bright and Clear Colours
Gone are the days of beige, white and neutrals, and in are the days of clear and bold colours. Adding a pop of bold colour through a bright rug or a couple of throw pillows is the perfect way to take on this trend. You no longer need to be afraid of colour overload, colour is officially in.
