La Mimi Spring Trend Report

Submitted by Mimi on Monday, 9 March 200915 Comments

Are you ready for Spring yet?

Well…ready or not, it’s almost here. I know, a bit hard to believe if you are living in some parts of the world where it’s still snowing. Take Toronto as an example, I woke up today to find out there is snow on the ground, AGAIN!

In any case, it’s better to be ready when it comes, so it doesn’t catch you off guard in your winter coat and “ushanka” hat.

Here is your summary of the key Spring fashion trends:

What do you think of the spring trends? Do you LOVE or LOATHE the idea of 80’s comeback ?

There was snow in Vancouver too.

I like certain neon hues like hot pink and electric blue, and I’ll be wearing my bright turquoise cotton skirt as soon as it warms up!

I think this time around, having learnt it the hard way, we’ll avoid making the same mistakes as in the 80s, and I think the clothes and the overall style will be much less exaggerated than the original… I’m actually looking forward updating my wardrobe with these beautiful, bright and cheerful colours! 80s was a happy time, so I hope that the style come-back will also have an effect on people’s attitudes as well! =)

I won’t be dabbling with too much with the 80’s. I will be mixing days of much color with others filled with soft layers of neutrals.
Bisous!

Mimi lovely you, glad you’re ok

Oh I’m in love with all these trends. I’m a girl from the 80’s and now that we know better (I hope) we will make it more stylish.
I’m all for it (I hope not exagerate )

Today I’m feeling so tired, my dear… and that makes me unhappy.
But this shall pass.

If I’ll go by Easter to mainland see my mother-in-law, I’ll go shopping on H&M, Zara and so on….. I’m so glad

Hmmm…. I might need your advise, would you be kind to help me?

Lots of love

xoxo

I am loving that jumpsuit! I think neon will be a big trend this spring and summer. I’m all about the 80s comeback as long as it’s mixed in with some newer stuff and perms are left behind .
