Time to break out your spring clothes!
Spring is almost here (at least for some who arent experiencing terrible weather) and it is time to start wearing those shorts and sweaters again while we are experiencing the transitional weather from winter to spring. This is usually called the transitional clothing or pre-spring (or pre-fall) fashion. Even though it is not that warm yet, it is time to hide those thick wool coats and boots and start wearing lighter coats and booties. Here are some quick tips on how you can wear some summer clothes during this transition weather!
- Lightweight sneakers
Time to break out those canvas sneakers again but at this time, you cant exactly wear it with shorts or dresses yet. Wear it with ankle length trousers and oversized sweaters.
- Cropped camis
This is the ultimate must have for summer but during this transition weather, wear it with high waist pants or pair it with a leather jacket or sweater.
- Romper
It practically looks like a dress sometimes so for this kind of weather, wear it with a nice leather jacket and some boots.
- Colourful jacket
Gone are the days where dreary colours are worn. Choose a light jacket with a nice spring pattern to brighten up your day!
- Wide leg shorts
This spring, these wide leg shorts are coming back and it is very easy to use it. Wear it with a lazy comfortable sweatshirt.

Milan Fashion Week Fall 2013 Top Trends
More and more fur

This is always a given for fall but this time the fur was given different textures and patterns. Time to update your fur collection with these new ones!
Flowy skirts

The comfy and flirty skirts are back again and the fashion world is loving it! Pair it up with a tight top and you would look totally classic.
Menswear for Women

Androgyny is still a huge trend for fall as seen in Milan runways. These suits and tuxedos for women are softer and a little slouchy though compared to last year’s tailored look.
Kickass pair of boots

Thigh highs, knee length or ankle boots, they are all awesome.

London Fashion Week Fall 2013 Top Trends
From brilliant prints to new favourite hues, London fashion week has taken us by storm and left us with a lot of trends. Here are some of the top trends seen on the fall 2013 runways from London.

Leopard and zebra prints are making a come back this season. Let every woman who loves these print rejoice!

Metallics are also a huge trend for fall 2013. Comes in classic silhouettes like pencil skirts, dresses and coats.

Love pink? Lucky cos shades of this girly colour was all over the runway for fall 2013. From the softest hues to the brightest one, expect to see a lot of women rocking this colour come fall.

You would think that there would be lots of layering and coats on the fall 2013 runways but surprisingly, a lot of sheer details showed up.

Prints worth wearing are the ones that can capture attention. That is one statement this fall 2013 that you should remember. Intricate patterns and designs are a big trend this season so start shopping for dresses, coats, pants and tops with bold statements!
