Summertime means bright colors, flip flops by the pool, and a sunny disposition. One brand that totally embodies that? Trina Turk<\/a>! We chatted with Trina herself to pick her brain about mixing prints, trends, and what\u2019s in her FabFitFun x Trina Turk Tote!<\/p>\n

How did your fashion brand come to be? Did you always know that you wanted to be a designer?<\/em>
\n<\/strong>My mom taught me to sew when I was 11, and later demonstrated how paper patterns could be manipulated to create variations on a style. I fell in love with fabric, fashion magazines, and sewing. In high school, I decided that I wanted to be a fashion designer (although at the time I didn\u2019t really know what that meant).<\/p>\n

You\u2019re known for your fun, vibrant prints. What are your thoughts on mixing prints?<\/strong><\/em>
\nI\u2019m all for it! It usually works best when there is a color in common between the prints, and when they\u2019re of varying scales and complexity. For example: if one print is two-tone and the other is multicolor, and they both contain indigo and white,
\nit will probably work. The easiest pattern mix is a two-color stripe with a print.<\/p>\n

What fashion and accessory trends are you expecting to see this summer?<\/em><\/strong>
\nVibrant colors and graphic print, of course! My team and I also love texture and pattern mixing, and fanciful details like fringe, pom poms, and tassels.<\/p>\n

What made you want to partner with FabFitFun on this adorable tote bag?!<\/strong><\/em>
\nWe\u2019re on the same wavelength! My team and I thought we could say hi to those who already know us, and introduce Trina Turk to new friends through FabFitFun.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re a California local, so what\u2019s in your beach tote?<\/strong> <\/em>
\nA printed Trina Turk beach towel and \u201cShade\u201d hat, Neutrogena sunscreen, big sunglasses, a magazine or two, my iPhone, an apple, some almonds, and a bottle of water.<\/p>\n
