Trends to Love this Season

Although it was so beautiful this weekend in Massachusetts I spent most of my time indoors at the mall. Do you ever get an urge to spend a generous portion of your pay check on re-vamping your wardrobe? I had that feeling this weekend and I acted on it without an ounce of guilt which is greatly needed from time to time. Some trends I saw in every store I went into were; tunic length shirts, ruffles and rosettes, and denim galore!

Tunic length shirts are great to wear with leggings or skinny jeans. A couple of my favorite tunics from Chadwicks are the Linen Blend Tie-Front Tunic and the Pintuck Tunic. Wear these tunics belted to add an extra touch of style or unbelted for a more casual comfy look.

Ruffles and rosettes are also big trends for the spring and summer this season. The Ruffle Wrap Shaper Dress is a slimming dress that provides just the right amount of style with a ruffled neckline that carries on throughout the length of the dress. The Rosette-Trim Pointelle Sweater is a babydoll style sweater with a rosette detail on the neck line. Rosettes turn a plain sweater or knit top into a dressier top for work or even for a night out!

Finally, denim is a big trend that has expanded beyond denim bottoms and into denim shirts, jackets and dresses. Our Oversize Denim Shirt is a great basic item to have. Tunic length, it looks great with a pair of black leggings and flats.

I have tried to incorporate all of these trends into my wardrobe this season. Fortunately it is has been easy to do so because many of these items are versatile and can also be worn dressed up or down. The ruffles and rosettes add a touch of detail that turns basic into unique while tunics and denim styles are comfortable and casual for relaxing summer weekends and nights. What trend do you like best this season?
