Spring has finally arrived, which means, we are only a hop, skip and a twirl away from packing closets with spring's latest trends. So get your fashion diaries out, check off items on your wish list and let's get to the trends!
LWD
Due to it's slimming effect, the little black dress is still the best staple for day and night, but the little white dress (lwd) is this season favorite choice and helps you to stand out in a sea of muted earth toned colors. Like the black dress, the white dress can be worn in many different styles. Ruffles, lace, sheer or constructed, slip on the white dress and get ready to be noticed!
COLOR
Blue Hues and Yellow Coloring You can not be in spring and not wear something that is bright and full of color. This year's colors are blue and yellow, to be worn together or separately. The blue hues help to bring out any eye color. And yellow looks brilliant on brown, tanned skin.
BLACK AND WHITE PRINTS
Black and White prints are as close and as cool as Stevie Wonder and Frank Sinatra's hit Ebony and Ivory. Most of the prints stay in breezy, flowery shapes. And because of the stark contrast any shape will most definitely pop!
SHUT UP AND BE PRETTY
Feel pretty, be pretty and have this season's biggest trend, the pretty dress. What makes these dresses so delightful are the flowers that adorn them, which can make one feel as if they are in a botanical garden. Tulle is shaped and formed like flowers, big huge flower prints cover simple dresses and flower beds and silk blossoms make any constructed dress or gown much softer.
METALICA
Metallic, silver bronze or gold, is one trend that Style Spotter believes will forever come and go. When buying metallic please try not to buy a bright metallic that will burn others' eyes as you walk down the street in the spring sun. Soften the glare by wearing a muted metallic.
VOLUME
Volume is no longer just for your hair but for dresses, skirts, shirts and even pants! Tiers of fabrics make any clothing item appear to have volumes and with pants think MC Hammer pants or Egyptian pants with lots of volume between your legs.
LIKE, TOTALLY AWESOME
Style-Spotter has infinity for anything 80s. And this season the 80's once again makes a come back. Bandage minis, fluorescent dresses and anything punk rock will do!
FUTURISTIC
Funny how the 80's and the futuristic clothing are two big trends in one season. This season seems as if designers studied Star Wars. C-3PO gold leggings, Darth Vader-esque patent leather coats and capes and plastic card cut out formed into a cocktail dress keep you light years ahead of the rest.
SKINNY OUT - CHUNKY IN
Skinny heels are so not necessary for this spring. Chunky thick heals, platforms, wedges are so great and comfortable.
So have fun with the pretty, far out, totally awesome big trends of spring!

Thanks for the spring fashion info. Since I am dark skinned, White and Yellow will defnately be in my Closet for this season. Trust. And I sooooo happy skinny heels are put waaaay back int the closet for a few years. sexy as the want to be but painful after a few hours. Even a seasoned stiletto pro as myself needs a break.
Wow, so London's getting the skinny-minnie bug, huh? Did you observe any differences between the Black fashionistas' style and their white counterparts' style? I know there are many Africans in Europe. Did you notice an integratation of their native style with the magazine trends? Just wondering. Also, do the boys dress hip-hop-ish their as well? Sagging pants and oversized shirts, for example.
