Lots of black leggings but only with tunic length tops.
As it has warmed up here, camel is the new neutral. Also more beige and brown.
In the stores for the young: a lot of ivory and dusty pastels. Don't really like the dusty colors and haven't seen many wearing them.
Very few ear buds, almost everyone wears headsets, many in cool colors.
We were in a different neighborhood yesterday and all the men were wearing grey or black suits with light blue or lavender shirts. Suits were not as expensive looking. We think it was a government building area.
Except for children and young teenagers, no one wears t-shirts with writing or graphics.
Almost no one wears hats except for some eccentric looking guys who appear to be part of the art scene (e.g., also wearing red velvet jackets).
Many more people wear glasses but only cool, trendy glasses, even the 70 year olds. The frames of my glasses are from France and that seems to be enough for storekeepers to assume I am French and start talking to me non-stop in French. Never happened to me before given my blond hair.
One strange trend: pants with harem trouser bottoms. These are made out of every imaginable fabric, including what you would use for a pin stripe suit. And being worn by stylish looking women of all ages. They aren't everywhere but around enough to be noticeable.
Have been busy shopping. Clothes still very expensive here and hard to find my size. Found some good discount shopping areas so all is not lost. Haven't bought harem pants so not to worry.
