Tribal Council
Let your animal instincts take over with this
season’s tribal- and safari-inspired pieces. Your inner lioness will be on the
prowl for belted safari jackets and animal prints in a wide array of colors and
fabrics. Take note now: batik print
dresses paired with strappy sandals and wooden accessories will be a stand out
look for spring.

Leg Room
Your legs can breathe again! The skinny leg look will continue its strong

look for a new wider-leg trouser, in both slacks and denim, making its way onto
this season’s must-have lists.

Neon Lights
It’s hard to miss some of the
bright colors bursting onto the spring scene.
Neon shades of green, orange, yellow and pink have made their way into a
multitude of this season’s collections.
But please, for the sake of retinas everywhere, keep it simple! Overdoing these bright colors might cause temporary
blindness.

For the boys
Although trends for the everyday guy tend to
remain relatively standard from season to season, there are a few key pieces that
will freshen up your wardrobe for spring.
Skinny-leg pants and v-neck t-shirts still play a major role, but to spice
things up, be on the look out for these basics in bright colors. Also look for perfectly
fitted shirts and sweaters.
