A little romance...underwear as outerwear
Underwear as outerwear is one of Spring's biggest trends - no, theres no need to bear all - think of it as more of a seductive layering affair
This is a trend with varying degrees of dare; begin with pieces edged in lace or sweaters with boned bra cups – all will hint at the lingerie look
Avoid red and black, instead embrace spring’s neutral and pastel palette for a more romantic take on this trend
Too exposed? Play with sheer chiffon and tulle layers
Cover up in one of two ways: with a fine knit cardigan or a mannish tuxedo jacket
Army Jackets
Replace your leather biker with a super functional, weathered flak jacket- the official outerwear of off duty models
Sexy surplus: cinch a ballooning men’s jacket with a thick belt and wear with micro leather shorts
Look for the more dressed-up takes on uniform dressing: Balmain mixed army jackets with sequin cargo pants
Sleeves rolled up and buttons undone - 2010’s style soldiers stand at ease
Spring BLING
Think chic, not showy. These party pieces have an elegance and glamour that offsets the glitz
Find respite from the recession with lashings of gold, gloss, glitter and crystals
Don't be afraid to pile on the accessories - make this look your own
White...
A summer favourite, yes, but this season white's excitement lies in shape, form and fabric
Go for prairie styles, architectural shifts or sweet macramé slips
The white blazer returns thanks to slouchy tailoring at Michael Kors and Calvin Klein
Shirt dressing is back at the fore; from frilly and feminine to sleekly starched, make sure you buy a white shirt
Denim Everything...
Head to toe is the newest way to wear denim this season
