Once I started daydreaming about Spring,sun,and warmth I couldn't stop. I took a look at my closet with the knee high boots I couldn't wait to put on few shorts months ago, my long sweaters, and skinny jeans and I suddenly was tired of them all. I am ready for light flowing fabrics, showing my toes, and layering tees and tanks instead of scarves and jackets. So I went a step farther and took a look at what fashion trends are heading our way for Spring 2010. There is some good, some frightening for a mother of three like myself, and some that I can't wait to get my hands on. . . Here is what I found:
The Good. . .
The palette for spring is light, romantic, although somewhat reserved it is a welcome change from the bold jeweled tones of last year that not all of us can really pull off and can easily look cheap on the low end of clothing lines. This palette reflects the state of the economy as well the mood of the people;soft nuetral tones with a romantic vision of time past. So for me this is good, maybe not wow-me-fantastic, but certainly not bad.
Now for the bad. . .
Short, shorts are back. I don't mean the finger tip length, or even what I would consider a fairly short short. I mean SHORT, non-existent, shorts. You may think, "is that a bathing suit?", but no, they are shorts. They are everywhere. Tan legs go a long way with this look but cant take a Mother of Three all the way. Even if I do work out four times a week and lay of the cupcakes this is just not going to work. They are super cute on the right figure but having two daughters keep me from loving them all the way. We will just have to see as this plays out. I was so happy when bermuda shorts came into fashion I have the distinct feeling that this year they will be labeled mom-shorts and I will be hopelessly dated.
A saving grace? If you have a good figure, want to embrace this trend, but dont want to bare your backside, try an up-to-there split. Long dress with eye raising split that show off the front of your legs (which look infinately better than backs of my legs) are also in high demand this year.
Finally, what I can't wait to get my hands on!
The boyfriend blazer, feathered headbands, and all natural makeup. Love, Love, and Love. I am so glad the boyfriend blazer is stickng with us this Spring. This great relaxed jacket completes so many outfits. It adds sophistication without stuffiness and really helps bridge the gap between warm days and cool nights (that is the Mother in me talking).
The feathered headband. This is a little out there for mom in me but soooo cute. I especially love it with short hair. A great way to add a little fun and youth to a evening outfit.
The No-Make-up, Make-up Look. LOVE this. Celebrate the natural beauty that comes with Spring. I am not advocating not wearing make-up but rather keeping it light, soft, and romantic. LOVE THIS LOOK!
Most importantly, have fun! It is Spring after all.
