SPRING DENIM TRENDS

Spring Denim Trends have a focus on color, prints, and textures.  Bright bold spring colors of yellow, turquoise, coral, and bright pink along with white are haute for spring!  Prints are big and bold, including large floral prints, ombre, and tropical.  

Tips to wearing printed denim:
-Keep your look streamlined and on trend with simple jewelry and accessories.  The denim is bold, what you pair with it shouldn't be.
-Pair with solid colors and pieces.  Neutral and coordinating shades look best to let your denim make the statement.  
-Bold heels, sandals, and embellished flats work well with printed or bright colored denim.  Let your feet seal the deal on a fabulous look.

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!

ROCKIN' THE RED...LADIES & GENTS

As V-Day, aka Valentine's Day, approaches every girl is wanting that perfect look to wear either for a date with their special someone or for a night out with friends.  "Red Dress" parties have become trendy as of late, so don't be last to the style game.  All reds are not the same so be careful if trying to coordinate accessories, shoes, etc. (no matching...that is dated!).  Red is always in style so rock your red look again!

Style Tip:  Accentuate one area of your body, typically chest or legs.  A short, tight-fitted dress with cleavage can look to revealing and cheap.  


Draped neckline and sexy back will grab someone's attention.  BCBG, $198


Perfect to go from the office with a blazer and tights then change into sexy heels and jewels for night.  Mango, $39.99
Wraped dress


The deep V neck enhances your bossom and draws your eye.  Hot way to wear lace! Nightcap Dress, $352


Marciano Emilina Red Dress, $228
 

Betsy & Adam Square Neck Lace Overlay Sheath Dress, $69.75 (size 2-14) at Nordstrom's

For older women or ladies who like a more classic look, this dress is perfect for you.  The belt cinches in your waist yet the dramatic neckline draws attention to your face.  Black Halo Classic Jackie O Dress, $327

Another sexy style for the classic woman.  The ruching is slimming and the neckline shows skin and draws attention to your face.  Diane von Furstenberg Bentley Short Dress, $298

Fit and Flare dresses look great on women who are well-endowed in the chest.  The flowy skirt draws attention away from your hips and tummy area while the gathered waist creates a waist line for you.

Men's Looks:  Plain red can look a bit dated, so add so flare to your look with a cool neckline and cuffs, add a blazer over top, or a long scarf.  You don't have to mix red with black.  Think navy, chocolate brown, or gunmetal gray.


Pair this shirt with a deep gray blazer leaving the neckline unbuttoned.  Try a black blazer with a contrasting thin knit shirt underneath.  Dark denim and cool shoes complete the look. Topman shirt, $60 at Nordstrom's

A fitted red v neck shirt looks great under a blazer as well as a leather jacket. En Avance Shirt, $78


Stripes or patterns with red in them are a great option.  Roll the cuffs up and add a leather cuff or cool watch.  Pair with a blazer or zip neck sweater as well.  Daniel Cremieux Shirt, $42.50
