Three Fashion Trends for Spring/Summer 2012!

Rejoice! Warmer weather, and summer break, is right around the corner! Which means it’s almost time to pull out your favourite shorts, tanks and sandals. For those wanting to update their wardrobe with a few stylish new pieces for the season, 2012 is serving up plenty of Spring and Summer-friendly trends, from neon, to chunky heels!




Neon
The go-to color palette for Spring/Summer ‘12 is neon -- especially shades of neon yellow and coral. Neon skinnies or capris are a must-have for cooler weather, but for those only wanting to add a splash of this eye catching trend to each outfit, neon colored tennis shoes are a fun and trend-forward way to do it. When wearing such bright, bold colors, keep it simple with clean lines and solid colors. A pair of neon green jeans look great with nude flats, and a neon pink top color blocked with camel is the perfect compliment. 


                              Chunky Platform Heels
 There’s no footwear trend more fun than chunky platform heels. These strappy  Mary Jane-style sandals come in many bold colours and girlish prints, making them almost too much fun to play with in your wardrobe. The best part is that the high platform makes them more comfortable to wear than regular heels, without sacrificing height. Make an everyday jeans and t-shirt outfit pop with a pair of chunky red suede platform wedges, or dress up your favourite sun dress with a wooden heeled floral print pair.



 Flyaway Floral Cardigans
Perfect for transition weather and colder climates, flyaway floral cardigans are as cute as they are comfy. These boxy cropped jackets are always cut in an open cardigan style, generally have short or three-quarter length sleeves, and are almost always made in a light, sheer fabric that’s perfect for Spring. They surprisingly look great in traditionally fall colors like navy blue, brown or cream, and match well with a cami,  jeggings and boots.
