Fashion

This season, it is all about color! Whether you are wearing a floral mini similar to one that Paris Hilton has worn, or a royal blue slinky fitted sheath such as one that has recently been seen on Kelly Ripa, deep and vibrant colors are the name of the game for the spring season.
It does not matter if you are just beginning your foray into fashion, or if you have been in love with haute couture for decades, this season, everyone looks great in bold colors. By bold, we do not mean garish or gaudy. Rather, it is the deep, vibrant hues that count and not the color choice itself. Popular shades such as blood red, and deep midnight or royal blues have been making loud statements since the beginning of the spring season.
Floral dresses that combine a number of vibrant colors as well as floral jewelry are yet again becoming popular this year, making a comeback from the 1970’s. You can expect to see flowers aplenty this season in every color and shade imaginable. In the past, floral prints tended to appear mostly on floor or evening-length gowns. Otherwise, the dresses ran the risk of looking immature or too trendy for the real fashionista. This spring season, you will be able to find floral prints on miniskirts as well as lengthier gowns. Cascading organza or billowy light fabrics are not the only ones to hold the floral floor this year. Along with varying lengths, you will also find bold flowers on heavier fabrics and red-carpet-type material such as satin.
These bolder gowns and frocks are also the backdrop for subtle flowers. If the flowers themselves are not bold and beautiful, the underlying color of the dress is sure to be. The First Lady herself donned this look with a gorgeous Thakoon jacket and sheath overseas. The floral print was fairly subtle, but the fuchsia was not. Sometimes, fuchsia can be overpowering and too bright, but as with all other tones this season, the dress worn by First Lady Michelle Obama was perfectly combined by the right amount of depth of the color.
