Women’s fashion trends for spring bring you lots of looks to choose from. If you like a clean, crisp look, here are some great ideas for you.
1. Stripes are big: Strips are everywhere this spring, from casual to dressy tops, to skirts and pants.
How to wear them: With both vertical and horizontal strips to choose from, go for the stripes that suit your body type. Remember that vertical stripes draw the eye up and down, while horizontal stripes draw the eye sideways. So if you want to appear taller and slimmer, go for the vertical stripes. Needless to say, if you don’t want to appear wider, stay away from the horizontals.
Layer a striped jacket or sweater over a simple top and skirt. Or, if you don’t want to overdo the stripes, wear thin stripes in a blouse or top, and pop a jacket on top. This is a great business look!
Match your other wardrobe elements to the color of the stripes, for a chic look. Stick to simple, classic pieces, and snappy dress shoes, to complete your office look.
2. Safari is hot: Safari styles are comfy and chic for work or for play. Basic khaki can be practical and smart for the office. For a new look, buy a khaki coat, and add a belt. Snazz up a safari dress with an ethnic belt, some metallic shoes or a simple tote bag. Slip a few bangles or cuffs on your wrist for the look of the moment.
Tip: Don’t go overboard with any accessory, such as too many bangles, at the office. Keep it simple for work, and save the added bangles for the weekend.
