I know January seems a bit early to be thinking about your Spring wardrobe, but let's face it... all the stores are now selling shorts and bathing suits that make you cringe after a weight-gaining Holiday season. I am not saying summer is here so please do NOT go wearing your khaki shorts and tank tops around just because the temperature has reached a whopping 50 degrees. But since the stores are selling the upcoming season, it is a great time to be thinking about what you want to buy and what look you want to project this Spring.
The hottest craziest trend is actually being carried over from Fall and Winter 2009 which is the sky high platform heels. These may be nonfunctional for many of you but if you can find it in your budget to buy at least one pair for hot date nights or lunch with the ladies, do it becasue you will instantly look so now.
Other peices to look for would be skinny pants, voluminous jackets, chunky necklaces, more metallics, and fun flirty fabrics such as lace, tulle, silk, or anything with ruffles.
The colors are the biggest difference from last Spring and Summer. Yellow is still popular but it is a greenier yellow, red is still huge but it is an orangey red that we like to call tomato... it is just about the hottest color this season and we have not seen it for years! Neutrals play an even larger part in this spring and summer and you will see khakis, beige, tans, and all shades of earthy neutrals as this seasons basics. Pink is still strong in both the hot pink color and the newer light pink shade. Turquoise, which has been in style for a couple years now, stays strong.
