Spring Fashion Focus

By: Julio Balda

The sun is shining, the grass is greener, the birds are chirping. What does that mean? A whole new spring wardrobe! This spring, fill your closet with some daring pieces and styles that can’t be missed.

Flare jeans aren’t just a thing of the past anymore ladies. Buy yourself a pair this spring and top it off with a crop top of your choice! Speaking of crop tops, a fuzzy, pastel-coloured crop top is the perfect piece to have. You can wear it anywhere. From day-time walks to a night out with your friends, a fuzzy crop top is an essential!

Think only farmers can wear overalls? If you do, you’re clearly mistaken, as overalls are a huge trend now! They aren’t considered a “lazy” article of clothing anymore, and they can even look high-fashion. Match it with a nice white blouse and some heels and you could be walking the runways!

This year’s spring wardrobe includes a lot of colours for boys. Light-wash jeans are a great must-have for spring to coincide with that “almost summer” vibe! Varsity jackets are also a go-to for those chillier nights. Something that guys will have no problem wearing are sports shoes! Nike Roshe Run shoes, Adidas originals, and New Balance 574 shoes are some of the best sports shoes to get this spring - they can be worn casually (with a pair of jeans) or even in a classier setting (with rolled up trousers).

Spring 2015 consists of three patterns: stripes, double denim, and dare I say it, florals? For spring? Groundbreaking. Striped dresses for girls and a simple striped shirt for men can be worn at casual occasions, as well as classier gatherings. After reading the words “double denim”, Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears’ 2001 denim catastrophe probably came to mind, but I assure you—with the right pieces—you can make a statement, and look good doing it! The key is to never wear the same coloured denim. Wear a lighter coloured denim shirt/jacket with jeans that are shades darker! Lastly - floral crop tops, floral skirts, floral button-ups, floral everything! Flower power is ALWAYS a go to during this time of year; it’s classic.

I hope you Titans are ready for a wave of fashion this upcoming civvies!
