Webster's
defines "trendy" as 'very fashionable' or 'up-to-date'. Some take this definition to heart and
believe that in order to be fashionable each season, and there are now four
seasons: Resort, Spring, Pre-Fall (these
clothes hit stores between May and July, filling the gap left when spring runs
dry and fall is still being produced) and Fall.
Keeping up with the trends, like keeping up with the Joneses, is not for
the faint of heart. Those who follow the
trends believe they
must incorporate all of the latest trends into their wardrobes; it's a never
ending pursuit. Unless you're born with
a bank account like the Rockerfellers and a bounce-back figure like Heidi Klum,
maybe just maybe this not the best line of thinking to employ. Don't fret if your ability to keep up with
the trends is a little more Ugly Betty than Carrie Bradshaw - you can still
wear the latest trends without depleting your bank account each season ... How?
It's simple, be picky. Flip through a
few catalogues and the Spring books (that's what the publishing industry calls
magazines) to figure out what the new trends are and what tickles your
fancy. Identify items that will work
with your figure and can easily be incorporated into your wardrobe. Maybe it's that new pair of deliciously high
5" heels or maybe it's that fabulous necklace made of silver chains and beads
that will upgrade even your most basic t-shirt.
Whatever it is, it should make you feel good when you put it on. If it looks great in Vogue but not on you,
leave it at the store and find something that makes you feel like a million
bucks. The worst thing about the
changing seasons is that the latest trends aren't for everyone. Don't buy something just because it's in, buy
what you love. And if you don't fall in
love during a given season but feel the need to purchase a few items, shop
sparingly at stores that wont charge you an arm and leg. So without further ado, check out my tips to
find out what's HOT for Spring 2009.
