Sheer Lace: Sheer lace is timeless look. It is important to remember to leave a little to the imagination when wearing this trend.

Tie Dye: It is easy for tie dye fashion to look cheap and homemade. Go for a pattern that looks more intricate and in turn it will look more expensive. 

Tiny Pleats: This trend it’s a great way to implement pops of color for spring. Usually this trend is sported with a solid color, so go for a color that will standout. 

Wide Legged Pant: This trend is groovy it takes us back in time. The overall shape and cut of the pants are slimming, and very comfortable!

Asymmetric Neckline: This trend is very interesting. An asymmetrical neckline could be anything from a one shoulder dress, to a wacky cut out in a shirt. It creates interest to the typical outfit. 

 

Long Dramatic Earrings: Last spring what all about the studs. This year the runway was full of models wearing attention grabbing earrings.

Block Heeled Sandals: This trend made its debut last Spring, and baby it’s back! Thank goodness, this trend is and easy way to dress up chino shorts and a white tee. 

The Slip Dress: The easy silky slip dress was seen a lot on the runway. It’s sleek, easy to wear, and very 90s!

Off the Shoulder: This Spring is all about the collar bone. Showing of the shoulders is a must, and there are hundreds of options for this trend at all different price ranges. 

Suede: This timeless fabric is going to be a big necessity this spring. Whether it’s a shoe or even a mini skirt, they will be flying of the shelves of department stores everywhere. 

Fringe: Did fringe ever go out of style? Whether it is a trend setting skirt or a fun cross body bag, this is a great way to add interest to any look. 

Ruffles: This trend was all over the runway. It featured, flowing fabrics and ruffled textures. 

Shoulder Cut Outs: Not to be confused with the off the shoulder trend, this is a totally different look. This trend features a high neckline silhouette and sleeves that go off the shoulder.
