Spring has Sprung and our Spring & Summer Buying has Begun!
Here are some trends we are loving this season:
1. Cut off shorts
The essential summer staple, denim cut off shorts, are no stranger to anyone. This trendy, cool and comfy look is a fashion trend alert for this spring and summer. Whether you're headed to the beach or a rooftop city soiree, cut off shorts can be experimented and layered with to create a multitude of chic and casual looks.
2. Cropped Tops
Either boxy, sheer, or fitted, these abbreviated tops are one of our favourite trends for spring. Opting for high-waisted bottoms is a strategic and slightly more demure way to pull off this fashion-forward trend.
3. Cutouts
Summers are the season for skin-baring looks, but for those who prefer the subtle side of sexiness, cutouts are perfect. Aside from cutout dresses, cutouts are popular on sandals, swimsuits, tops, and just about on any popular spring and summer pieces. Opt for small cutouts at the shoulders or necklines if you aren't comfortable with showing your waist, stomach or back!
4. Floral Prints
Fashion's love affair with florals continue into Spring and Summer 2014. Embrace your inner lady with feminine floral prints offered by designers such as Dolce and Gabbana, Ralph Lauren and Agnes B.
5. Pop Art Prints
Pop art is popping off walls and onto clothes! Be it on sweaters, dresses, or t-shirts, this year's runway shows have been compiled with vibrant colours, exaggerated patterns and bold art. Pair your art piece with something minimal to really make it pop!
6. Stacked Heel Sandal
The chunky heel is back, but with a twist! These stacked and chunky heels are the perfect blend of fashion and function.
7. Festival Inspired Looks
Every year, once the weather turns warm and clear, thousands of music lovers prepare themselves for weekend-long celebrations of music, love and fashion. These music festivals like Coachella and Osheaga are trend-rearing grounds for designers. So invest in a few floral pieces, denim vests, maxi dresses, and a good pair of sunglasses for festival season!
8. Pleats
These precisely folded tops, bottoms, and dresses are a statement of elegance and sophistication that goes beyond the prep-school uniforms. Pleats give you a lightweight, romantic look, perfect for breezy summer days.
9. Luxury Handbags
Luxury Handbags never go out of style! For spring we love bags in pastel and neutral hues.
10. Midi Skirts
Just a bit below the knee and just shorter than a mixi, this year you need to make sure you are midskirting. The midi skirts give a feminine twist and a demure charm to any of your outfits.
11. Metallic Accents and Bright Colours
What better represents spring and summer than playful finishes and bold colours? Use metallics, neons, and brights to modernize any ensemble!
