Spring 2009 Fashion: Corset Trend

Corset Trend for Spring 2009

Who says underwear can’t be made outerwear? Corsets can be tasteful outdoors — it all depends on how you wear them. Add details such as bows or straps and pair with jeans and stacked heels for an uber feminine look. A corset dress draws attention to a delicate neck and shoulders. If you’re shy you can don a corset belt or a “corset” shirt with a cinched torso, or wear your sleeveless corset with a cropped jacket.

Spring 2009 Fashion: Safari Prints

Safari Prints for Spring 2009

Animal print frocks and accessories scream rawrrr for Spring 2009 in a big way! Add flair to Spring’s neutrals with a leopard print handbag or a zebra print top. Keep this look wearable by keeping the print to just one piece — any more and you’ll look as if you yourself have escaped from the safari. Keep it classy!
