Spring is Near

Spring is near! The weather has been warming up here in NYC, and I couldn't be more excited. I've been anticipating the moment of putting away my winter coats and snow boots.

With yesterday's gorgeous weather (and of course knowing that spring is approaching) here are a few Spring trends straight from the runway that we'll be seeing in stores.

Layering all white

Prabal Gurung, Nonoo, BCBG Max Azria

Lately, the rules of "when" to wear white has turned more into "how" to wear white. Layering multiple pieces and mixing textures were huge on the runway. What I love about wearing white is that it creates a clean and fresh look. 

Shirt Dresses

Rebecca Minkoff, Altuzarra

A variety of shirt dresses were sent down the runway creating this perfect trend for Spring. There are so many styling options for the shirt dress which makes it an easy choice for many occasions. The dress can be paired with flats or wedges for a casual look, or with strappy sandals for a dressier look. 

Gingham

Lela Rose, Diane von Furstenberg 

Gingham check was all over the runway. Although I'm normally not a fan of gingham, I do like that many designers used the print in a modern way. When used incorrectly, it could read "picnic table" really quickly. Pairing the print with solid colors, cut outs, and sheer panels, gives it a more fashionable approach. 

Although these looks are from high end designers, I'm looking forward to seeing stores like Forever 21 and H&M's take on these trends as they are known for providing consumers with fashion at extremely affordable prices.

Sincerely,

Lyasia
