“Spring” into Fashion with Florals and Cutoffs!
March 18th, 2011Alright, it’s time to wake up and smell the roses, literally! There’s no denying that Spring and Summer are right around the corner and we all know what that means, right?
“Uh oh… it’s bikini season!?”
Well, yes, but not exactly the direction I was heading in. Actually, with warmer weather approaching, pants are getting drastically shorter and your frumpy sweater is no longer needed! Hallelujah, here comes the sun!
Recent styles that have been popping up are the ever so classic denim cutoffs! That’s right ladies, your daisy dukes will never have to see the darkness of your closet. What is so great about denim cutoffs is that they’re so versatile– You can wear them with a white tank, throw on a fringe vest, and some vintage boots, maybe some gold, chunky accessories and you’re ready to take on the day. Dress them down or dress them up with a sexy top and heels for a night on the down, either way, denim cutoffs will always be a ‘DO’ when it comes to picking out the ideal summer wardrobe.
“Ohhh, tell me more!”
Alright, alright. How about floral? Everybody loves floral! What could possibly be better than floral? How about sexy, flirty floral. I kid you not. What used to be considered a print only to be seen on your grandmothers davenport is now being used in a wide variety of styles along with girlie and flirty twists. Floral is most popular amongst dresses, however, have no fear, most of these dresses would have your grandmother speechless! We’re talking lots of ruffles and plenty of leg! Lines such as Costa Blanca and Urban Behavior are having a good ol’ time experimenting with this latest print. They’ve got dresses, shirts, blouses, you name it, they’ve got it! Personally, I think floral will be around for quite some time. It can be classy and elegant with a string of pearls or funky and chic with some wedges and a studded clutch! Celebrities like Miley Cyrus and Vanessa Hudgens have recently been spotted wearing floral in both flirty dresses and sexy tops!
Other hot trends floating around this Spring:
Pastel and Neutral mani/pedi’s- It’s out with the dark and in with the light! Wear a Lavender or Mint Green to brighten up any outfit or keep it simple with a nude manicure. Whatever color you choose, you definitely won’t be left in a cloud of dust come Fashion Week!
Gold- Jewelry, sandals, heels, purses, whatever you can imagine! Gold accents on clothes or even your accessories add a subtle hint of glam without you even trying! Layer on the necklaces and bangles with a Maxi dress for that perfect Chic meets Boho vibe! Or, spice up a sultry party dress with gold, sky high stilettos and some sparkly chandelier earrings!
Equestrian Riding Boots- These boots add a flair of sophistication to any outfit! Wear them with dark skinny jeans and an A-line top to give your outfit an English Polo Club feel or wear them with a pair of tailored shorts and a classic, button-down Oxford shirt to show off that European fashion sense you’ve been hiding!
