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!

Wovens – Plaid and Stripe Play

We came across this great shot from the Sartorialist and we were instantly inspired by the experimental use of mixing a large neutral balanced plaid, against a bias striped tie!

We love that this look isn’t too over the top… It still has a classic appeal, but keeps the blazer style from looking too boring or traditional, especially with a little subtle color in the stripes!

Check out our inspired plaid & bias stripe combo board to download them.

Lumberjacks need not apply for Fall/Winter, because Jane has arrived with her plaid in tow. This traditional tartan was seen carried throughout the runways in dresses, pantsuits, top, bottoms, you name it. We loved that this classic lumberjack style tartan is being brought back again… You know you can’t go wrong with this colorway.
