Trend 1 Focus On the Hip
Trend 2 ’90s Grunge
Trend 3 It’s Okay to Be (Cobalt) Blue
Bring out your feminine side with the peplum style Kate Middleton brought back. It can be a top, skirt, or a dress. The choice is all yours and you will undoubtedly look fabulous.
The ’90s trend is here to stay for yet another season. If you haven’t already, it’s time to bring out the ’90s kid inside you and strut the streets in this grunge style. Try out distressed denim dresses and leather boots from your favorite designer.
A sign that spring has sprung and summer is coming is the sudden popping of colors on the streets. This season, a favorite color among designers and customers is cobalt blue. This is a perfect color to wear, either as a whole outfit or through accessories.
