LIVING THE LEXUS LIFE WITH HOT SPRING TRENDS


HOT SPRING TRENDS


For Spring/ Summer 2012 designers created lots of wonderful collections from which we have traced a number of fashion trends for the season. These trends aren’t limited to a certain style. They are very diverse and reflect the state of modern fashion. And we say - we can't wait to try them!




                             





                                                                 Watches

Watches have become a very trendy fashion accessory -- you'll be seeing a variety of styles, colors, and shapes this coming season. STAMPS brand has been a big hit in Europe and can now be found at select US locations. This brand is very fashion forward and fun - allowing the wearer an easy and very affordable style 'change' with a variety of bands and hundreds of watch faces....HOT HOT HOT...a must have for 2012.









Handbags

The absence of which accessory will make even the well-thought-out image incomplete? Of course, it’s a handbag – stylish and fashionable, luxurious or simple, elegant or slouchy, each will perfectly finish your bright and unique look. Deep and varying shades of orange/tangerine, green/lime, purples, blue/turquoise and yellow/gold are the big fashion hits for spring and summer 2012.

This coming season, you'll be seeing unique novelty bags, as well as handbags with exotic shell and beadwork embellishments.

Handbags are the perfect affordable accessory to modernize your wardrobe from spring and summer. 









Other trends: To help you decide what pieces to keep and what to shelve for the coming spring and summer season, here are a few pieces that trended on the fall 2011 runways, possibly made their way into your wardrobe, and are still hot for spring.


 
                                              
 

   
Animal prints

Designers love exotic, and animal prints remain hot. Just pair your fall and winter zebra prints with summer white, or your leopard print with tan -- a perfect and trendy look for both spring and summer!









Bling

Bling is here to say as long as its done with restraint. A girl can't go wrong when she adds sparkle to her wardrobe, regardless of the season. Swarovski crystals are the choice of top designers, and add more sparkle than real diamonds. Embellished on bags, watches, bracelets belts, and caps, they are a hot item on runways from New York to Milan. Pair that bling accessory from the previous season with all the great bold colors for spring and summer, you will look terrific.




                                                                                     Wide leg pant

Of course heavy wool are not ideal for spring and summer, wide legged pants in lightweight fabrics or denim will easily make the transition to spring. Lighten up darker colored pants for the warmer months by pairing them with a white or light color top – and swap the boots for wedges or high heeled sandals.













Slit dress

While the runways for both seasons have seen plenty of evening wear and dress style options, you should work a casual slit into your wardrobe come spring. Pair a slit skirt with a cotton tank and casual jacket for an effortless spring look.





 

Hot New Hair Trends: from New York Fashion Week

Its quite apparent hairstyles are moving to 'easy elegance' for spring. The sporting life was a popular theme with styles that looked fresh from the ocean or outdoors. Classic American glamour had a big moment with polished ponytails, graceful braids, and bouncy blowouts. Still, nothing was too perfect or impeccable—deconstructed waves and undone knots and twists proved that having a bit of an edge is as chic as ever








Of course we think THIS is just about the hottest thing on the runway right now:)
