These five spring fashion trends are as chic and functional on the runway as they are off.
1. The Shift Blouse
The geometric silhouette of a boxy shift blouse is the new update to your standard T-shirt or predictable blouse. The just-above-the-elbow length in tangible textures and mesmerizing prints make a bold statement for spring.
The midi skirt remains a constant for spring 2014. The feminine cut and hemline can take you from work (paired with an oxford) to a night on the town (paired with a midriff-baring crop top).
3. Luxe Sweatshirts
Sportswear has proven to be a game-changer this season. Sweatshirts break free from the gym and embrace luxe fabrics, prints and cuts with bright hues.
4. Wide-Leg Trousers
You’ve never had more leniency than with a wide-leg trouser. Higher-wasted trousers with a flare at the leg make for a universally flattering cut no matter what shape or size.
5. Mesh
From Vera Wang to Elizabeth & James, mesh was everywhere on the spring runways. Make it look fashion-forward and not trashy by wearing it over a black camisole.
