Graphic techno prints are becoming increasingly popular, and printed pants are a must-have this season. Designers from Stella McCartney to Gucci are all over this look.

The Knife Pleat Skirt

Razor sharp pleats are where it’s at when it comes to fashions spring. From mini to maxi lengths, make sure your skirt has plenty of pleating. Add whimsical accessories to lighten up this look. Team it with silk blouses, ladylike framed bags (no messenger styles), feminine heels or boyish flats. Generally avoid wearing knife pleat skirts with tiered tops, ruffled high neck blouses, and platform shoes.

The Boxy Jacket

Boxy jackets are all over the catwalks lately. In the spring, you’ll want one made from a lightweight fabric. They key to pulling off this fashion for spring is to wear it with fitted bottoms – think high waisted shorts or skinny leg jeans. Avoid wearing the boxy jacket with knee length full skirts or flared pants.

The Tangerine Something

Tangerine has been named the colour of the year, so adding that something tangerine to your look is a must. It could be as simple as a pair of earrings or a clutch, or as out-there and eye catching as a head to toe tangerine outfit. The key to this fashion for spring is to offset the brightness of the tangerine with a neutral colour palette.

The Statement Earring

Put away your statement necklaces for now, because supersized cocktail earrings are the must-have accessory this spring. From chandelier to tassel styles, this season’s earrings are all about being bigger and better. Colourful styles are a funky option, while classic gold and silvers are still super chic.
