SPRING 2013 TREND: LASER CUT

Cut outs have been a prevalent trend in evening wear, showing lots of skin.  For spring 2013 designers went with a sexy take on that look, Laser Cutouts.  This intricate detailing is less revealing yet trendy way to show some flare with minimal amounts of skin.  Look for it in dresses, skirts, jackets, and tops.  This style is perfect for layering too.  Add a cardigan, blazer or cropped jacket and once inside take it off and looking sizzling.  Not ready to jump into this trend...then try it in handbags and heels!

STRAPPY FLATS...CHIC STYLES FOR SPRING

Ladies, your feet do the walking but your style makes a statement about you!  Strappy flats are the "it shoe" for women for want to be chic and sexy but be able to stand all day.  Strappy flats add a luxurious detail to an  otherwise plain jane flat.  Add embellishment to the flat and you are set for spring!  I'm loving the look of studs, bows, architectural waves, or any type of embellishment on the toe and heel of the shoe.  This spring look for neutral colors, such as taupe, white, gray, and tan along with bold spring colors such as yellow, coral, and fuchsia.

Here are some of spring's statement strappy flats.

Love the yellow/blue combination or the neutral with the pop of pink!
