Swing into Spring

Spring is in full swing and we’re heading full steam ahead into another hot Durban summer.

Can your wardrobe handle the heat? Here are some of the hottest, wearable trends to keep you cool this season.

Black and White

Technically known as the ‘monochrome’ or ‘geometric’ trend to the fashion fundis. To the rest of us, black and white will do.

Translate this look with stripes or geometric prints. The trick is to not wear any other colour…at all.

Try this maxi dress from Mr. Price.

To the point

Please give a warm welcome to the ultra feminine new shoe shape, the pointed toe. I personally couldn’t be happier to wave ta-ta to the bulky wedge.

This season the point toe is available in a ballet flat and the heel.

The best part about the point toe is that this shape has an amazing ability to add length to your legs, you will feel like a supermodel in a pair, pinky swear. Don’t believe me? Try these at Spree.

Headgear

This trend will literally take an outfit from drab to fab in one simple step. Plus, it doesn’t have to cost you an arm and a leg.

All you need is a bit of fabric to wrap around your head. Its screams glam and is a huge hit amongst fashionistas the world over. Check out this step-by-step guide on how to tie a turban.

White out

Traditionally Spring/Summer is all about colour. While the rest of the pack are raging in their vomit worthy neons, make like Kate Moss and get into white. It’s crisp, clean and classy. Glamour UK dubbed white the hottest colour on the red carpet this award season. Go on; embrace that inner goddess with this little number from Forever New.
