Spring trend to try now - Pastels
Usually when I think of pastel clothing, I think of Easter and frilly girly girl styles. Not this year - pastels are out in full force - and by adding an edgy touch, you can take them from "Easter Sunday" to "Night on the town." These looks are great for everything from date night to daytime fun. The key to pulling off this trend is to always have one "neutral" or "grounding" piece (such as clean-cut jeans, a black bag, or a simple top) to keep it from looking completely sporadic.
