Now is the time to start shopping for next season's trends. From
Bermuda shorts to boxy tops and sportswear, spring style is all about
casual chic. Forget the drabness of winter, and embrace the colors of
next season, including bright blue, stunning red, and sea foam. Make
this year's trends all your own.
Knee-length shorts are going to
be a big hit next season. For inspiration, check out the Nike Golf
Classic Rise Short (Zappos, $75). Pair with a box top (BCB Generation
Pleated Sleeve Box Top, 6pm, $30) or a crop top (ASOS Crop Top with Polo
Neck in Stripe, ASOS, $21.11). Pair Bermuda shorts with a blazer, since
short suits are in. Sportswear separates, think Circuit Hoodie
(Athleta, $84) and Revelation Pan (Athleta, $98), are no longer just for
working out.
The style of the 60s is still very much alive.
ModCloth is a great avenue for 60s-inspired apparel. Check out the Black
Tie Optimal Dress ($139.99), the Demure So Chic Dress ($44.99), and the
Presentation Day Dress ($49.99).
Look for clothing featuring
animal print, stripes, oversized ruffles, and sheer panels. My One and
Only Body Suit in Stripes (ModCloth, $24.99) or the ASOS Swing Playsuit
with Sheer Panels (ASOS, $61.57) are prime examples of current trends.
Wear a fun animal print blouse with black dress slacks at the office or a
striped shirt with a long black skirt. You may just start a trend all
your own.
The Intergalactic Trend is out of this world. From
jewelry to skirts, intergalactic designs can give your everyday style
renewed vigor. Pair the Topshop New Cosmic Print Tube Skirt (Nordstrom,
$56) with a white blouse to create a workday ensemble sure to leave an
impression.
Other trends to watch out for include exaggerated
volume (baggy, oversized jackets, shirts, and dresses), Japanese Dress
(think Geisha), Le Nouvelle Smoking (sexy menswear for women), and the
90s (grunge). Shop stores that stay up-to-date on all the latest fashion
trends. ModCloth, ASOS, Macy's, Nordstrom, J.C. Penny, Kohl's,
Piperlime, the Gap, Banana Republic, and Target are some of the best
stores for fashionistas - and they offer fashions for far less than
high-end retailers.
When following fashion trends, it's important
to remember to apply trends that flatter your figure and style. Not
every fashion trend is going to work for every woman. With that in mind,
get shopping and get ready for next season
