Staff Style Tips: April

Fasten your seat belt because this month’s style tips will either take you back to the past or transport you to the future. From childhood bows to hologram bags, we have this season’s best fashion trends and they are taking over the year 2013.  




A is for Aztec – Katrina Bowden in LOFT
As the weather warms, I love the look of bold global prints like these Aztec-print shorts worn by Katrina Bowden at the celebration for the LOFT Pop-Up on Robertson.  How do you know if your favorite piece is Aztec?  Look for zigzags in various patterns, according to this story from FashionNiche.  For those of you with lots of prints in your closet, but no idea whether they are Ikat, Batik or Shibori, check out this great piece from Refinery29 to help you brush up on your fashion vocab.  (Katrina photo by Amy Graves/WireImage)

Back It Up – Jennifer Lawrence in Chopard
A reverse necklace is the easiest trend of the season to incorporate into your wardrobe. Simply turning around a necklace you already own creates a fresh look that works all year round. Jennifer Lawrence embraced back jewelry at this year's Oscars with a long Chopard necklace. You'll definitely catch me this season sporting a reverse necklace with my maxi dress.

Go Bold with Bows – Kerry Washington and Zooey Deschanel
Remember how much fun it was wearing giant bows when you were a little girl?  Well, thanks to designers like Louis Vuitton and Christopher Kane, you can relive your bow-obsessed childhood days while looking like you stepped right off the runway. That's right, bows are back! Whether styled in your hair, like Kerry Washington or cinched around your waist like Zoey Deschannel, bows add a touch of femininity to any ensemble.

Hyped on Holograms- Kate Moss
Get ready to go back to the future with this trend. From shoes, to clutches, belts, to blouses- it’s showing up everywhere. Holograms add a fun, funky feel to almost any look and really pop against dark colors.
 -- Olivia Judkins, LSPR Intern 



See-Through for Spring- Brooklyn Decker in Christian Louboutin
Clear accessories made an appearance on the Spring 2013 runways. From jewelry, to handbags, to heels, this fashion statement is so playful and can basically be paired with anything in your closet. As long as it is not overdone, see through accessories can make an outfit look both unique and elegant. In my opinion, this style trend is clearly amazing.           -- Christina Mendez, LSPR Intern
