I always love looking at the runway collections for spring because it doesn't matter if it's Paris, Milan or at home in Toronto, the clothes are always cheerful and fresh.  There were a number of standout trends for spring, but these 3 are the most universally wearable and the ones you are most likely to find in any store:

Bright Colours

Greta Constantine, Pink Tartan, Joe Fresh

If there is one "It" colour this spring, it's orange.  How much do you love this one from Pink Tartan?  Yellow comes in a close second, and at Joe Fresh's prices it's a risk-free statement piece.  I think we can agree we'd all look hot in this gorgeous green from Greta Constantine, right?

Black and White

Pink Tartan, Greta Constantine, David Dixon

My closet is rejoicing right now since I've been in a black and white rut for… well... forever.  This is a trend that truly anyone can wear.  Don't look good in white? Make that the accent. Look better in black? You get the drill.  Greta Constantine showed great examples of this. And how stunning are these dresses from Pink Tartan and David Dixon?  The contrast is so crisp. I need these.

Florals

Arthur Mendonça, Sarah Stevenson, Denis Gagnon

Anyone can wear floral, you just need to find the right print.  Curvy girls look great in mini floral prints like this cute skirt from Denis Gagnon.  The Arthur Mendonça shift is a classic and Sarah Stevenson's creation is guaranteed to score compliments.

What are your favourite trends for spring?

Now obviously none of these glorious dresses can be worn without smooth hair-free legs.  The new Philips Ladyshave HP6370 (full review right here) is your best friend in this category.  It’s an electric shaver (use wet and dry) with a bikini trimmer attachment and a built-in light to ensure you don't miss a hair.  Want one?  We are giving away 3 every week!
