Trend – Prep for Spring

Chunky knits and layered styles seem to be a trend of the past as Spring takes over!

Start your Spring collection right with one of the dominating trends this season, the preppy look. Using patterns such as plaids, stripes and subtle foulard motifs help define this trend in basic silhouettes such as fit blazers, light sweaters, and simple dresses. Include a strong color palette of soft pastels and neutrals, then clash them with bold saturated hues of electric blues and yellows for a different approach!

There is more than one way to interpret this trend, so start by using the collection we made for you!

Trending – Ripe Stripes

According to this recent Stylecaster report, stripes are a major trend for Spring 2011.

Runway shows had everything from your typical horizontal symmetrical stripe to stripes in varying weights and sizes, even find stripes in vertical layouts. For Spring, think technicolor and 70’s prep style…no more boring pastels and muted stripes here!

Go bold with our stripe inspired board!
