The sun is shining today in Chicago, and they are expecting temps to reach near 50 degrees next week. So it is time to start thinking Spring! I can honestly say I am so sick of my heavy winter clothes, even the ones I haven't worn. Boots, yuck! I need sandals! I need tank tops! I may even break down and buy a new swimsuit this year…
As is my usual practice, I will break the Spring trends post into several posts over the next couple weeks as I get my groove back on and visit my favorite Chicago area suburban stores.
Trend 1: Floral
It has been big for awhile both in spring and fall, and it is back with a vengeance, according to my sources.
If you are not into prints, which I haven't been until lately, you must find a floral top or even pant for spring. It is hot!!!!
Check out these floral leggings from Payton Rose (Northbrook, IL):
and...for those not so daring, these are a more subtle black and white floral from Alice B. (Buffalo Grove, IL).
Trend 2: Romantic White Lace
Also, another returning trend. Check out this cute top from Alice B.:
And while we are on the subject of white…
Cute white top from Payton Rose:
I am seeing lots of white tops, which are great because they go with everything.
Trend 3: A Little Boho
The boho trend is big too, from suedes to fringes and peasant blouses.
Top above from Payton Rose.
Also, along with the boho trend is tassels…they are popping up everywhere:
They can be dressy or funky:

Trend 4: A Leather Jacket
Not really a new trend, but I am anxious to wear something lighter than a North Face down coat:
Payton Rose had these two great jackets:
The first is such a soft material, and the second is a muted pink…so pretty!
Trend 5: A Little Gingham
This is big, and I loved these Hue leggings I found at Alice B. Check them out styled two different ways. Possibly a future purchase?
I think that's enough for now. I promise to blog more often than twice a year and be a part of your life again. Thanks for sticking with me!
