According to fashion week, there are ten fashion trends that we are going to love this Spring. As styles tend to repeat themselves about every 20 years,  you can probably look in your closet to find some of these 70′s inspired looks.

1. THE RETURN OF THE WIDE LEG PANT
For some of us the wide leg pant is a must to create balance and proportion and should never go out out style. It’s more important to wear what works for your body style rather than what’s in style. You can always add the accessories or color of the season to update your look.

If you tend to have your volume at the base, the wider leg will be more flattering than last seasons skinny jeans. If you tend to have fullness at your shoulder and bust line, this pant will do wonders in creating the illusion of an hour glass figure. The key is to balance the width of the pant with the right top and heels.

What shoes to Wear.  Wear a heel unless you are very tall, then you can get away with flats. Oxfords, mary janes and shoe boots are the newest looks. Wide trousers look great when the tip of the shoe peeps out.

2. THE RE-RETURN OF THE HIGH-WAIST PANT
This is a great pant to help tuck you in and eliminate the very unattractive “muffin top”.  It will also help to accent a small waist. Tuck your shirt into high-rise pants to elongate your legs and give the appearance of a longer waist line. Be careful with pockets. Side pockets will add volume to a fuller hips.

3. MILITARY LOOK
Although fashion repeats itself, the designers always add a new twist to give you a reason to buy new. This Spring’s military look is more futuristic with straps and harnesses for a more abstract look.  Adding white will keep it light and delicate looking.

4. ORANGE ZEST
A fresh slice of citrus. Bold orange, rich mango or pumpkin, will take the place of the corals this Spring. Always best worn with white but if you can’t wear white on the bottom, khaki, brown or navy can be an alternative to black. Black and orange remind me too much of Halloween.

5. LONGER SKIRTS AND DRESSES
Easily worn by all sizes and ages, longer skirts and dresses are paving the runways. Unless you are wearing one that skims the floor, choose a length that flatters you. Think curvy. Find the point between your ankle and your mid calf that best shows off your legs. If the skirt is too long, it will tend to make skinny ankles look even thinner and wider ankles look wider. If you are petite, lengths worn too long will tend to make you look shorter.

6. PAJAMA PANT
Please don’t mistake this pant for something you would wear to bed, like the ones with the little clouds on them. Think slouchy, comfortable, unconstructed, but still glamorous. Pair them with a more fitted or shorter top and add volume and style by using chunky accessories.

7. HALTER NECK LINES
Halter necks with necklace-like cinching are feminine and fabulous. Picture yourself on vacation in the south of Spain or the Caribbean. You’ll see this look on short dresses but it looks sensational on longer relaxed dresses. Sheer soft fabrics look awesome with this neckline. Great for reducing a fuller shoulder line.

8. NEUTRALS
No stranger to warm summer days, neutrals simplify palettes and give a soft clean look. Structured styles in sand, camel, ivory with a hint of black look classic with an added twist. Great with gold sandals even for day time.

9. CHARTREUSE
A pale green or yellow like the liqueur made from brandy which was discovered in France. This color is not very flattering on many but does look great if you are tan. You don’t need a lot of it but just a hint introduced as a color blend or an accessory, which will look chic.

10. DOLMAN SLEEVES
The classic dolman sleeve is back. This sleeve with a large armhole and tight cuff is seen on fuller, boxier, shorter cut tops. These fuller silhouettes help balance and offset a fuller bottom or can create a long leggy look with a narrower pant. But this style will not flatter a fuller shoulder or bust line. Also, if you have rounded shoulders, add a slight shoulder pad for better balance. From surf hoodies to evening wear, dolman sleeves are comfortable and stylish.
