Pretty little spring things
Download SP's 2009 Spring Fashion Guide
By Alison Abbey
Never ones to miss out on our day in the sun, we at The Sunday Paper did some serious spring closet cleaning, clearing out winter’s emo-friendly plaid shirts and heavy hoodies to make room for all of the fashionable fads headed our way in the coming months. From old trends (the long-awaited return of the Maxi dress) to new favorites (statement jewelry that left us speechless), it’s time to spring forward into a spanking new sartorial season.
Bold prints in daring patterns give us a serious case of spring fever, while on the lighter side, gauzy fabrics and wispy ruffles adorn feminine frocks. Gladiator sandals continue to reign supreme, and tie-dyed duds have us channeling our inner flower child. This season’s accessories are all wrapped up in one word: scarves. Sophisticated in silk or casual in cotton, they’re a surprising warm-weather staple.
Forget baseball season and the pollen count--for us, spring is all about the fashion.
