Spring's fashion runways showcased clean-cut and demure
collections with feminine embellishments and silhouettes.
Designers favour nude and natural tones such as taupe, moss
and ivory, while paying tribute to traditional spring pastels such as lilac and
mint.
Chadwick's, a popular online fashion resource for career and
casual clothing offers tips on how to update your wardrobe as the air gets
balmier:
Ladylike Silhouettes
Jackets elevate an outfit in both career and casual
occasions and are cut shorter this season.
Fashion brands like Chadwick's offer a variety of stylish
features such as 3/4 sleeves, peplum skirting, wide lapels and stand-up
collars.
Try pairing a shrunken linen blazer in a soothing earth tone
with a pair of white jeans for a sophisticated yet casual look that is straight
off the runways.
After lingering right above the knee for the past several
seasons, hemlines have dipped down to midcalf this spring.
Pack mid-calf-length skirts in a wide array of colours,
prints and fabrics for business trips and weekend getaways alike. Denim Bermuda
shorts cut just above the knee are a stylish way to enjoy sunny days.
Frilly and Feminine Details
Move over, winter wools and tweeds! This spring, lacy shirts
will flatter suits, pom-poms and ruffles will adorn dresses and chiffon will
softly drape bare arms. This feminine trend translates into delicate lace trims
at necklines and hems on camisoles and long-sleeve tees.
If you've always longed to wear crochet-this is the season
to do it.
Embellished Footwear
The stiletto, fall's ever-popular staple, steps aside this
spring for playful espadrilles, wedges and platforms. Metallic sandals in
silver and bronze are cosmopolitan yet surprisingly easy to pull off. Try
playful touches of macramé and eyelet this season.
Crochet espadrilles have a vintage appeal when paired with
sundresses and make a simple, feminine statement when worn with denim.
