What’s IT for Spring?

April 6th, 2010

Furla Corniola Bag in Turquoise

Last year was ruled by the maxi dress and the fedora (even worn together sometimes).
The romper came in third.
The year before is was the gladiator sandal, which carried into last year.

But this year, is there one piece that each of us must have?

Is it a color?
Turquoise has been seen everywhere. Or perhaps the neutral look is the palette of the year.

Is is a shoe?
The cuffed sandal is definitely being promoted by editors, although I haven’t seen many people wearing it. (Maybe because of the weather yet). Personally a completely flat shoe is uncomfortable to me, and the cuff can make some people look like they have cankles.

The clog is an option that is coming on strong. Chanel certainly set the stage for this to be big. My favorite clog is this sandal version by Bloom coming soon to Kindred Sole.

Is it shorts?
Shorts have been scarce the past few years, but now we are seeing some wearable versions from almost every designer.
There are the 50s inspired, loose fitting shoes in floral prints that are forgiving on most figures. There are bubble shorts, and there are shorts with an “apron” panel – aka. “skorts.”

And then there are the 80s-style, shorter cuffed shorts that look fantastic with tights.
(Caution is advised with this look, it definitely for the young-at-heart).

Is it cat-eye sunglasses?
I think they pair so perfectly with the floral prints and vintage looks right now. But the allure of the big frames is still there.

Is it sequins?
I have to admit I love seeing just a touch of sequins on an otherwise casual tee. And you can find them anywhere right now.

So what’s your choice for this season’s most important trend?

Work Hard and Stay in Style.

Oasis Ponte Cut Away Sheath in Turquoise

You are very busy at work these days. And sadly that means no time for shopping – at least not when stores are open.
So you’ve been online at odd hours looking at the new collections. Some things are easy to buy online: Shoes, Accessories, Make-Up, etc.
But clothes are all about the fit, so you need to see them in person.

You need to check out the Worth Collection.
It’s perfect for working women – especially ones with hectic schedules. Having been around since 1991, The Worth Collection has ironed out the details to make shopping effortless.

Convenience is the first thing the Worth Collection tackled. You shop when it’s right for you. Once a new collection is introduced (4 times a year), a Worth Representative sets up a trunk show for clients to view the new line. You make an appointment with your Rep at a time that works into your schedule – before work, after work, on your lunch hour, whenever.

Second, you’ll get personal attention. No waiting to find a salesperson that is working with other busy women trying to cram shopping into their lunch hour. And your rep will also help you with overall looks. It’s like having a stylists/personal shopper in one.

And finally when it comes to quality, one turn through a Worth Collection trunk show and you’ll know that these clothes are the highest materials and fit. The attention the designers pay to style detailing (buttons, stitching, etc) is a major reason for Worth’s growing popularity. It’s all so well thought out.

Then after you find the looks you love, you place the order in your size – Worth carries sizes 0 – 20, plus Petites 0 – 14. There is no wondering if your size will be available, because it always is attainable. Then in two to four weeks, you new looks arrive.

Why? Because Worth understands that you work long hours, and lunch time is way too rushed for you to go to a store. The weekends, well those are for catch-up and giving much needed attention to a boyfriend or husband or yourself.

My Worth Representative in Chicago is Beth Prew – email her bprew@worthcollection.com to view the current collection.
