The Word on Fashion
by Brieanna Setterholm

This month the word on fashion is about what is coming up in spring. The final shows for spring and summer were finished up by January 20th in L.A. It looks like the new trends are the continuation of bright's, neon's, and candy colors. Whites will be replacing blacks. Greens, oranges, and yellows seem to have become the favorites.

The styles are shown as sporty casuals with white being the basic color from NASCAR to surf inspired. The dresses go from an ultra feminine 50's classics to a sheer bohemian goddess look. Print dresses go form a soft look to a very bold look, and metallics are staying.

For pants this spring you aren't going to need much. You will need a pair or two of Capri's, you will need a cute pair of cargo's (Kasil are making some cute new cargos).You will need a cute pair of jeans, like always. The sailor pant is coming back into style, to go with those you will need a pair of cute flats, and a nice jacket.

For shoes this spring we have bright colored havaianas and kitten heeled thongs. NM70 shoes are showing the floatie from last year in a heel form with bright contrasts, it is cute, sexy, and comfortable. Ballet slippers are still here, along with the pastel uggs (if you can ever find them). To go with the 50's look you are going to need a round toed heel. To go with your Capri's which are the must pant of spring I recommend one of the sporty new athletic looking mules (check out the KLX brand).

Your accessories section is going to be filled with color this spring. For purses you will want a leather satchel in green, red, or pink. Beaded necklaces are going to be a big must this spring, to go with that you will want your basic bangle bracelets(along with the pearls), your beaded glass earrings, and of course your big ring. Spring watches are going to be fun and funky and fun in red, beige, and pink.

That is the word on fashion for spring.
