Boho Influences Spring Trends

Last night PinkMemo hosted "The Front Row: Trend Event – Boho Chic" at Neiman Marcus' flagship store in Downtown Dallas. Almost Famous meets Jane Austen is this Spring 2011 trend, where ruffles and lace join forces with sequins and shells for a fresh take on the sometimes over-played boho chic. PinkMemo described the Spring 2011 to be "brilliant coral, soothing white and tres chic stripes."


I was definitely taken back by how much coral, tangerine and other shades of orange were being displayed. It was a refreshing contrast to this winter's darker colors. I'm also excited to see the wide-leg pants coming back in style. The outfit to the left is a perfect picture of what you will be seeing this Spring when you dine at Parigi or stroll through the Dallas Art District. The white peasant top with black detailing winks at gypsy drab and the pants flirt with sea-nymph nautica to create a collection that never forgets its quiet sentiment towards natural beauty. 

As we're enjoying these lovely 70 degree days, the Manolo Blahnik Tassel Flat Thong Sandal on the right retailing for $395 with its feminine flutter is my must have sandal this season and move into Summer. For you ladies who need something a little more "uplifting," the wedge sandal is back and will go perfect with those wide-leg jeans or the white ruffle dress.


But, I have to say my heart fell in love with this gorgeous coral Michael Kors Skorpios Ring Tote retailing for $995. You can wear it cross shoulder for those busy days on the go, or you can wear it as an oversized arm accessory for those brunches with your girlfriends.

What trend will you be sporting this season?
