Hit a home run with your Varsity Jacket!!!


As you all can tell, a very fashionable trend for women this season is boyfriend-inspired clothing. And since it is the spring time, one of the hottest trends is baseball jackets/varsity jackets! Now, you can find women’s baseball jackets in so many different styles, colors, as well as materials. A great thing about them is that they look great on almost anything; from jeans and trousers to trainers. Some of the details that you can find on baseball jackets this season include elasticized waistbands and cuffs, printed logos, contrast colors, contrast materials, front zippers, vertical welt pockets, ribbed trim collars, and so much more! You can also find them in a wide array of colors too such as white, navy, blue, black, red, orange, green, and so much more!

Even if you weren’t a star athlete in high school, you can now look like one, thanks to the latest trend in spring outerwear. Varsity jackets are the hot new thing and you don’t have to go back to HS to wear one.

I started noticing letterman jackets in fast fashion shops like Forever 21 and Urban Outfitters, then saw them popping up on street style blogs and being mentioned in comments from CF readers. It appears that us college girls aren’t the only ones interested in the trend – luxury retailers have sent expensive versions of their own down the runway! (See photos below.)

I think this trend can look fantastic on everyone. I also love seeing them styled in unexpected ways, like with a skirt and tights, or with colored denim as seen below. I’m anticipating seeing these jackets everywhere come spring.

Electric and playful

The runways for spring were sprinkled with pops of  cobalt blue , which is a perfect alternative for those that aren’t keen on a typical pastel palette. This bold color adds a sophisticated punch when worn in the form of tailored  blazers  and blouses, but is electric and playful when worn as handbags or statement  jewelry . Get a head start and add this color to your wardrobe before all the blue-fanatics snatch it up this spring. Transforming bright shirts, shoes, dresses and even pants, cobalt blue has been surrounding all the runways this season. Paired with black, it has been the theme of some designer’s shows, including  Monique Lhuillier , who centered all of her  Spring 2012  pieces around the brilliant cobalt blue, basic black, a stunning yellow, and bright white. This color has been proven to be practical in an incredible amount of ways. The latest trend in jeans-wear is the colored jean. There are fifty-five colors alone at  Joe’s Jeans , and corresponding with

Glam Camouflage: the Not-So-Invisible Trend

With Spring well within our grasp and the yearly print trend set to make an emergence, the time has come to address that tetchy issue; that is the camouflage debate. Camouflage print has a lot of well-earned stigma attached, with military overkill and three-quarter length cargo shorts carrying much of the blame. This season, camouflage is set to make a massive comeback becoming one of the most coveted looks of the summer. Of course, it’s not what you wear but the way you wear it. Follow these tips to make sure you stay camouflage cool. What I'm wearing: From Temptation Boutique: Top, Shorts: Miss Me Jeans, Ring: Rhinestones and the Earrings: Rhinestones Hoop. Belt: Ti amo, Necklace: GUESS, Rain Boots: HUNTER, Bag: Evisu, Bracelet Watch: GUESS, 3 pieces Bracelets: H&M When you think of camo, you normally picture heavy duty, “manly” apparel. However, spring 2012’s runways were filled with colorful camo patterns that looked – dare I say it – actually ladylike! The t

How to wear leopard print shoes

What I'm wearing: Shoes: Limited Edition One of the quickest ways to add a dash of personality to any outfit is to mix in a pair of leopard print shoes. But, as popular and fun as they are, leopard prints don't really work with everything. In fact, I can probably name more colors and outfits that leopard print shoes don't work with than I can items they will. The good news is, when you get the right combination, it's a tough one to beat for drama, glamour and sex appeal. Below are a few tips on what to wear with leopard print shoes. The Obvious Choice for Leopard Print Shoes : Black It almost goes without saying, but  black dresses , skirts, and pants are a perfect match for leopard print shoes.

So, that's an easy one, and you could just r
