Spring Forward

Aside from my crazy allergies, I’m so excited that spring is here! Finally time to put up the big coats and scarves, and bring out the flowy dresses and skirts. Spring means beautiful weather and new and exciting fashion trends, and this spring is no different.

TROUSER JEANS
Forget about skinny jeans this season. Spring is all about trouser jeans. These 70s inspired high-waisted, wide-legged jeans are back. A great way to wear these jeans is with a pair of wedges for a long and lean look.

LACE
Lace was huge in the fall and winter seasons, and is staying for the spring months! However this lady-like fabric has taken a different twist to a more antique-looking lace. This transparent fabric has a more sturdier and more variation of patterns that come in different colors. Lace will be a big trend seen in summer dresses, but will also be found in tops and skirts.

COLOR BLOCKS

This season it is all about mixing solid colored pieces together and takes out the guess work of mixing and matching. This looks is easy to achieve with bright colored pieces.

I can't wait to see how these fun trends make their way off the runway and to the streets!
