Pastels
Most people automatically associate pastels with spring, but this year, expect them to be even more common, and probably to last even past Easter! Pastels were seen all over the Spring runways, in an array of fabrics and cuts. Here at OFC were keeping it traditional in everyone's favorite Spring lady, Lilly Pulitzer! Add on a Diane Von Furstenberg top and you can't go wrong! So light and airy!

Collarless Coat
Our second trend is the collarless coat! This coat can be dressed up, dressed down, and worn anywhere this Spring! This one happens to be a very sophisticated style, but if your a little more on the wild side, pair it with funkier prints!

Black and White and Stripes
Unlike pastels, black and white are not usually thought of as Spring colors. However, for the last few years they have been huge for Spring! 2014 is no exception! Keep this look trendy by only wearing black and white, pops of color are great, but this look is all about black and white. We decided to double up on the trends with this look, because again, stripes are big for spring! This year its a little different though; we are seeing different size stripes mixed as well as wearing two striped pieces with different orientations!

Wide Leg Pants
Are you a person who feels they can't pull off skinny jeans? Well good news, wide leg pants are back! Wear them higher on the waist and extending straight down (no flare!). This will give you an elongated look to the leg and hey, who doesn't want longer legs?
Talbots top ~ size Xs~ $17
Ann Taylor Skirt ~ size 4~ $16

Anchor Earrings ~ $7
Boxy Silhouette
Another big trend this season is boxy! The boxy silhouette is being seen everywhere from crop tops to jackets! The key to this look is to get your normal size. The designers have cut the fabric so that it will be just boxy enough on your frame. Going to large means you'll be swimming (and will look too large). Trying to go smaller to make it more fitted will just give you an awkward look, as the design is not cut to be fitted. Likewise, don't try to get a fitted top in larger size for this trend, it will just look too big.
A couple of bonus trends for you:
Nautical
we have many anchor earrings as picture above in many sizes and styles
Tea Length skirts-
They hit just above the ankle and look very lady like
Pointed Toe Flats
Especially d'orsay flats (the back of the shoe resembles a d'orsay fin)
