What’s “In” for Spring 2010

Monday, April 5th, 2010

Denim is back in a big way in jackets, dresses, shirts, rompers, and shoes, mixed with neutrals, whites, and brights. Pair with wood or turquoise accessories.

Cage shoes (updated gladiator- casual or dress, flat, or high heel), wedges, and ankle boots (with leggings & shorter skirts) are really making a statement this Spring so be sure not to wear your pants too long and show them off.

Coral, soft oranges, or peach, depending on what works for your skin, paired with neutrals and whites, blues, and gold and silver metallic.

Army jackets, military looks, camp shirts, fitted (for a more feminine look) a trend that will work for many women. Khakis and olive green look fresh but if these are not colors that suit you, keep them at the bottom away from your face.

Shirt dresses in soft fabric or military styles looks great on the working girl in a knee length or shorter for any figure.

Bermudas, walking shorts, that hit around the knee.

New leggings in crazy prints and fresh fabrics as opposed to just plain black, provided you have thinner thighs. Acid wash, tie dye, khaki, zip ankle details, and don’t forget denim leggings.

Mixed & matched plaids can be formal or sporty depending on the print, fabric, and scale. Be careful as it usually doesn’t work so play it safe with a neutral top or pick out a color in the plaid as an accent.

Very wide legged pant suits, with short jackets or slim tops (not a good combo for bottom heavy figures).

Fringe and tassels on handbags add a western, hobo feel, especially when paired with denim,
