Spring Trends Guide 2013: COLOR and PRINTS

Nothing signifies Spring more that bright pops of color and mind boggling prints! Enter this Duro Olowu for JC Penney top that I picked up during NYFW! It soooooo perfect. Its bright, and incorporates not only a cool print but stripes as well! Paired with a bright flouncy skirt (invest in one or three!) and we have another spring outfit! Make sure to check out the other Spring Trends Guide Posts HERE and HERE.

this skirt is so comfortable and I love the shape of it! red is another hot color for spring! this white beaded necklace is one of my favorites although I can't remember where I got it. I have a feeling I will be wearing white a lot this spring and summer.

Spring Trends Guide 2013: Sweatshirts, Neons and Lace

I'm not looking forward to the time springing ahead (I love all my hours of sleep). But I am excited for Spring...although it seems it will never be here in NYC! We supposedly have some major snow storm on the way and I am not in the least impressed with mother nature at the moment. anywho a girl can dream right? So I'm bringing you another Spring Trends post...you can check out the first of the series HERE.

So for now we are going to cover: Sweatshirts (yes...they are still making a comeback), neons (more solid color only neons), and of course nothing says spring like a little lace!

 GET THE LOOK

when I saw this neon orange sweatshirt at Zara I immediately bought it even though orange isn't really in my forte of favorite colors. I loved the brightness and how cozy it is. It's a great stand out peice and something about it screams Kenzo Paris to me. I paired it with this amazing lace flouncy skirt (yes flounce is in for Spring) from Lulus.com and neutral accessories. You can always tone down a loud outfit with a nude shoe! Trust me people are gonna rock the sweatshirt trend right up until summer.

beaded blazer

Well it isn't actually studded but it has that studded look with the use of beading. I love love love this beaded blazer from Lulus.com. Its eye catching and unique and the perfect topper to any outfit. I wanted to let the jacket shine so I went with a basic all black look with my new H&M jeans and also a great eye popping pair of red pumps from Lulus.com as well.

I'm so glad I got this blazer in time for all the holiday parties coming up. it will be perfect over sequin dresses or over a nice full skirt and top. These are a pair of jeans I bought from H&M after doing my True to Size denim trial. They fit great and I love the distressed look too.
