Do you prefer wearing pastels or bold colors? Floral or polka dots? Good news! The Spring (and Summer) fashion trends for 2012 include all of them. Here are just a few of the trends from style forecasters:
- Prints: Bright floral prints, tropical abstract prints, safari prints, and African prints are just a few of the hot print trends. Add some drama and wear a mix of prints.
- Polka dots: Both small and big dots make a splash.
- Happy colors: Trendy tangerine and red will make nearly everyone smile.
- Brighter, bolder color block: Not sure how to wear this trend? Try it first with accessories such as a handbag or scarf.
- Pastels: Lots of color choices and mint green is expected to be hot. Feeling adventurous? Mix pastels with brights.
- High-gloss metallics: A fun and flirty option is a metallic shoe--or try a glamorous metallic toe. Try matching gold with khaki.
