bestofbeehive Spring Fashion Guide

As the ice melts, the temperatures rise, and

flowers bloom for spring, your closet begins to

thaw out and open up too. The varying

temperatures and weather in spring mean

you can mix and match warm and cold weather

pieces to create one-of-a-kind ensembles.

But you can’t jump blindly into the upcoming

season, you need to know what colors, styles

and trends are happening. You also need to

equip yourself with the best accessories

to transition into the upcoming season.

In our 2011 Spring Fashion Guide

you’ll get the necessary guidance

and all the shoes, purses, watches,

and jewelry you need to bring your

style out of hibernation.

❀ Best of Beehive

Winter is in the rear view mirror and spring is right up ahead. And what’s the best part about spring? Spring Break! But you can’t head to the beach, pool, or what-ever your destination without the right stuff. So here are the essentials for the impending break:❀ beeBOPS: You’ll need some sandals to show off those toes after those long months of shutting them up. So go with the best and get a shiny new pair of beeBOPS from www.bestofbeehive.com. My favorite are the purple sequin pair. ❀ Bikini: It might be the most essential part of any spring break suitcase. You’ll be going somewhere warm or going into some body of water and you want to reintroduce your skin to the sun. No bet-ter way to do that, and make the guys pay attention, than with a eye-catching bikini.

❀ Scarf: I know what you’re thinking, but you can use a scarf during all seasons. They can be used to tie up your hair, a loose, light scarf is good with a tank top and they are great at pro-tecting your head from the sun.

❀Sunglasses: How could you forget? You’ll definitely need them not just for spring, but from here on out until fall. The trendy pair are cat eye glasses or big smoky lenses (think 70s), but a nice modern set will do just as good.

❀ Wide leg jeans: You can’t spend every second sunning or in the water, and if you’re taking a trip to the mall, or just hanging with friends, don’t forget your new best friend for spring - wide leg jeans. The 70s revival is HUGE this season and you’ll want a pair of what the old folk call “bell bottoms” to look chic. Pick a pair that are tight in the thigh, loose through the knee and as wide as your feet.

❀ Striped top: A spring trend is naval stripes. So in between trips to the surf, sport a white top with bold, horizontal navy stripes to look fabulous and seasonally appropriate. You’ll look extra fab if you wear it to the pool/beach over your bikini.❀ Leave in conditioner, hair serum: Being outside in the sun at the beach or even walking around town shopping, you’re going to expose your hair to some harmful stuff. Even if you’re just taking a dip in the pool to celebrate warmer temps, you’re getting chlo-rine all in your follicles. So try some leave in conditioner to help protect your locks from getting too dried out. And a little bit of hair serum is great if you want an easy, trendy sleek ponytail.

70s Style:

The one trend that is EVERYWHERE right now is the return of the 70s. Think neon colors, front split dresses, pantsuits and platform wedges.

The essentials you’ll need for this trend are:

❀ Flared jeans

❀ Maxi Dress in floral, paisley, polka dot, or bold single color with a high front split

❀ High waisted wide-leg trousers❀ White tunic

❀ Halter-neck jumpsuit

❀ Maxi skirt with front split, or in a sheer fabric❀ Midi-length A-line skirt

❀ Platform wedges

❀ Floppy brimmed hat

❀ Perspex framed sunglasses

❀ Big handbags

The easiest and go to casual look for the 70s trend is the boho look - flared jeans, billowy top, platform wedges, floppy hat. For a sophisticated 70s look take high-waisted flared pants, accessorized with a narrow belt. Tuck in a sheer billowy top with platform wedges. In both looks, accessorize with tons of jewelry - stacked bangles, pendant necklace, rings with big stones. For evening, go with a jumpsuit or billowy maxi dress with front split and thigh high boots. Hairstyles include the curly bob, messy up do, or very long and straight.

The resurgence of the 70’s will be a fairly large influence on style in 2011. But be careful what you pick out, because the jeans are all about a hem as wide as your foot and loose at the knee. But it’s not all about jeans either, the wide-leg trend has invaded trousers too. The sophisticated, mid-waist look that is tailored and fitted through the thigh are the way to go.

❀ 70’s Style

bestofbeehive Spring Fashion Guide

❀ Naval Stripes

When we say navy, we don’t mean the military trend of t

he current

winter and fall. It’s the traditiona

l boating style of whites, navy, red

and stripes. The stripes need to dominate the outfit a

nd red needs

to be a tertiary color.

And the stripes need to be dominant, but don’t le

t them dominate

your outfit. For example, on those cold

er spring days, wear a navy

and white striped top with a nice

boyfriend navy blazer and a pair

of white trousers. Or work the stripe

s into different outfits like

dresses, accessories, etc. As long as you kee

p the color palate, you

should be fine.

Also, don’t mix stripes with other patterns. For

instance, you wouldn’t

want a bold striped shirt with a p

laid blazer. It’s too busy and

minimizes the impact of the stripes, which is the

whole point of the

trend.

As for accessories with this trend,

a nice bright red is always a

good color for bangles, watches, so

cks, necklaces. A great touch is a

pair of 80’s Ray Bans that give a European feel, and

flats are the

perfect shoes for this informal look.

❀ 60s FashionIt’s not a new trend, having caught on last year, but 60s dress is

something that continues to be fashionable into the spring. It’s a

trend with fuller figures, pencil skirts and longer hems. There’s several

different looks with this trend that include the housewife, bombshell

and secretary/professional. The spring is about bright colors, pastels,

stripes and floral prints.The pencil skirt is the ultimate in modern 60s dress. It creates

an hourglass shape with a tight waist and firm fit in the hips. The

skirts need to be straight, long enough to go below the knee with a slit

at the back. Sheath dresses are also a very hip take on the 60s

style that can be found easily.And in a mix of trends (60s and sheer fabric) you can find a lot

of 60s-style garments featuring a lot of lace. Look for wide, unique

pattern lace. The trick is to find pieces that consist primarily of

lace, but are still lady like and sophisticated. With this you would

need to have something that isn’t short or too tight. Think light and

billowy for a warmer day.Ways to accessorize this style are with bold red lipstick, cat-eye

sunglasses, wide belts, clutch, head scarf, big hair, heels.
