A 10 Days to Spring Trend-a-thon, Day One

Has this been the longest winter ever? The few days when it has been slightly warm and had a hint of sun I felt like skipping down the street.

I thought it would be fun to take a look at the TOP 10 spring fashion trends in the 10 days leading up to the actual first day of spring. The day when we get to hopefully shed a few layers and add some bright colours to the daily mix.

So lets get started with my favourite trend this season, 70’s Boho Chic. Bring on the bell-bottoms! What can I say I am a relaxed style kinda gal. You will find a ton of tunics, peasant tops, jumpsuits, maxi dresses, with fabrics being sheer and silky.

Accessories feature crochet, tassels, leather, lace, feathers and dare I say it… fringes.

What I love about this trend is the mix of patterns, colours, relaxed style and the fact is a lot of the cuts are flattering to the plus size body.

 Here are a couple examples to get you started:

 
1. Alloy - Akira Kimono Dress $46.90
2. eShakti - Flutter sleeve print tunic $42.95
3. Old Navy - Women's Plus Crochet-Trim Gauze Tops On Sale $24.50
4. Old Navy - Women's Plus Tie-Belt Chambray Trousers $42.50
5. eShakti - Pleated yoke chiffon print dress $64.95
6. Miss Phit - Crochet Charm (cream) $36
7. Alloy - Gardenia Chiffon $31.90

Stores that I found featured alot of Boho Chic styles were:

Miss Phit
Torrid
Alight


So it is time to dust off those clogs and decide what your style for Spring 2011 will be?
