Five WEARABLE Spring Trends

Yes, I’m doing the unthinkable.  As I write, I’m looking through a window that shows at least four inches of snow on the ground, along with a continuous flurry that’s lasted two weeks.  I’ve been delaying this post because it JUST DIDN’T FEEL RIGHT.  It still doesn’t.  But it’s at this time each year, when SAD has officially kicked in, that dreams of new spring outfits create that happy bridge to the other side.

One of the main goals of this blog is to help you keep your wardrobe updated, but also wearable.  Sometimes great looks come down that runway, and they’re just not all that practical for our personal lifestyles.  This season?  PVC Plastic looks from head-to-toe (I’m sweating just thinking about it).  Or… Daytime Sequins (maybe for lunch at Cantina with my four boys?)  How about the “Transparent” trend?  (It’s possible I could get some very strange looks around here if I ventured out while exposing nipple.  Not sure about where you live.)  Fortunately, there are plenty of spring trends that can be worn by ALL women, and I’m happy to share my five favorites, along with some great seasonal finds.  Links are under each trend.
