Spring Fashion A to Z : Part IV

Q

is for…

Queen of Hearts

Alice in Wonderland opened last weekend, and add this to the LOST frenzy (it’s all about the White Rabbit, y’all!) and you’ve got a recipe for whimsy.

R

is for…

Rihanna

She’s always stylish and pushes the envelope when it comes to trying new things in fashion!

Obsessed with this diffusion line. Most Macy*s don’t sell the entire collection but I managed to find a good bit of it at the Macy*s in Tyson’s Corner and a decent selection at the one at Lenox…but for the full range, visit the section at the Herald Square store. (Bonus, it’s right next to the “designer” stuff at Macy*s…did you know that they now sell Anna Sui, Betsey Johnson, and See By Chloe?!)

 

S

is for…

Sportswear

The revival of separates and sportswear has been music to my ears – it just makes so much sense. Instead of head to toe dressing, style yourself! I’ve thrown in here references to All-American sportswear because it’s my favorite kind – crisp, cool classics that never go out of style.

 

T

is for…

Turquoise

Tap pants

Dance influences always abound, but this time it’s the tap pant that takes center stage. Keep it interesting with crisper pieces on top – a white button down, a structured blazer – anything to balance out the sexy boudoir bottom.

U

is for…

Utilitarian

Mix these hard, wartime pieces with khaki and softer elements as Marc does in this runway shot to get the #1 trend for Spring. Experiment with layers, texture, volume, and color – put those separates to use!
