Top Trends for Spring
By Stephanie Holliday Zorabedian
Our style mantra here at Helene M. has always been “classically hip.” We love flipping through the pages of the fashions mags to see the latest and greatest trends, but let’s be realistic – a trend is only as good as the style of the person wearing it. Style to us goes beyond referencing what’s hot this moment (a la neon from head to toe, bondage gear, lingerie as outerwear, etc), it’s about looks that have endured and have transformed with the times. 
And now that spring has finally sprung, we thought this would be the perfect time to name our favorite “trends” and must-haves of the season…
- Organic fabrics: Linen, silk, cotton, cashmere. These beautiful, natural fabrications are everywhere. We’re seeing loads of airy linen knits, couldn’t-be-thinner supima cotton tees, and the plushest lightweight cashmere you’ve ever laid your hands on.
- A great fitting white pant: This piece of clothing is going to be your best friend this spring and summer. It’ll kick you out of those cold-weather denim doldrums quick, plus they have a way of making even a comfy tee seem more dressed up.
- Classic springtime neutrals: White, beige and navy have never been so hot. These classics takes a modern twist when paired with an amped-up pop of color like sunshine yellow or Caribbean-turquoise(which also happens to be the “official” color of the season).
- Jersey Dresses: Nothing says effortless like a jersey dress. It’s possibly the most comfortable, packable, versatile thing in your wardrobe. Try classic cotton knits and gladiator flats for day-to-day and dress it up a little with super-soft pima cotton with a sheen.
- Feminine Flourishes: Ruffles and florals and lace, oh my! Anything that accentuates the glory of being a woman is popping up like daisies around here. Not comfortable with all the frills? Try subtle details like ruching that hugs the body or carefully placed pleating to create a little extra interest.
