** Fashion addict: Crazy about fashion, always follows and knows the latest trends.~ Layering Or Layers. In simple terms, dressing in layers. This refers to a dressing technique that we usually follow during the colder seasons. It's what we call "dressed like an onion," meaning several layers of clothes one on top of the other. Particularly convenient when the temperature fluctuates and you're cold one minute, hot the next. To better understand the term, in the following look in the photo, which could easily be an #ootd (*outfit of the day), you start with a sleeveless top (if it's warm), combined with a shirt (for a little coolness but also extra style) and if the temperature drops further, you add the cardigan. Similarly, when the temperature rises, you start removing layers.
** ootd – outfit of the day: The outfit of the day, meaning a nice appearance. It is also the most popular hashtag on Instagram, widely used by fashion bloggers!

~ Statement Statement jewelry, accessories, clothes. A fashion term you encounter very often. It refers to pieces that "make a statement," that stand out. Either because they have an impressive design, a special color or style, or because their print is distinctive and unique – for example, large and bold prints are also called statement prints. Even a logo on a t-shirt can be considered a statement when it stands out from the rest (e.g., it's metallic colored or makes a statement). We picked out animal prints*, impressive ruffled sleeves, and bold prints. Many times, statement pieces are also must-haves* for your wardrobe!** Animal prints: A general term used to encompass all prints that resemble an animal's fur.
** Must-Have: Essential, a piece you must have. Used to emphasize how special or versatile a piece is, which you essentially need no matter what!

~ Off-Shoulder / Cold-Shoulder / Cut-offs Words that have been a hit in recent years and we encounter them in many clothing designs! Off-Shoulder tops and dresses are those that have an elastic neckline and fully reveal the shoulders. They are called off-the-shoulder but are not strapless* as they have sleeves and no straps. Cold-Shoulder refers to cut-outs on the shoulders. That is, blouses or dresses that may have straps and sleeves but have an opening at the shoulders, leaving that part exposed (hence the name, "cold shoulder"). Cut-offs, meaning openings or cuts that leave a certain area uncovered. It is common on sleeves near the shoulders but can also be found on trousers or a top with an opening on the bust.**Strapless: The so-called strapless, meaning, without straps. It leaves the shoulders uncovered and has no sleeves or straps.

~ High-Low Or Hi-Lo in jargon. It is the asymmetry created when a blouse, shirt, or cardigan has a longer back compared to the front. In some cases, this asymmetry has such a large difference between the back and front that it gives the impression of a tail. In any case, such designs are particularly flattering to the silhouette and exude an airy feel and grace in movement.

~ Boho It is the abbreviation of Bohemian. The look originated in 1970s Paris and includes earthy tones, folklore elements, prints based on paisley or intricate florals. In an outfit, boho marries different textures and colors, creating a unique canvas that moves away from monochrome or minimalism. The prevailing trend is boho chic, the more refined side of boho.
