Spring 2009 Fashion

Thanks for voting everyone!  It looks like the majority of you voted that your hair 'do of the summer would be braids.  Now on to fashion!  Here are the spring fashion trends.

1. Sparkle & Shine

Sequins are not just for evening anymore.  Sequins and metallics were all over the spring runways.  The last picture depicts the ready to wear version of this trend. Not wanting to draw ALL the attention? Try a metallic purse or shoe. More about accessories later. . .





2. Bohemian Chic

This style is a bit more laid back and the flowy fabrics are perfect for hot Arizona days. Did you notice the long hair in this picture?


3. Black on White Graphic Prints



4. One Shoulder 

This look shows the versatility of the spring looks.  I'm loving the idea of this look for a swimsuit!


Michelle Obama's inauguration ballgown
5. Ruffles and Bows

You might be asking yourself how to wear this trend without being too over the top.  But let's be honest, I am the wrong girl to ask.  When it comes to ruffles and bows, there's no such thing as over the top!    ;-)

Ok, so in all seriousness, here's an example have how to make this trend a little more wearable.

I would kill for these dresses!

6. Sheers- This look will be perfect over a plain top to avoid potential scandalous-ness



7. Brights- Candy poppin' colors!


8. Neutrals- A great option to pair with brights or worn alone.
