CROP TOPS:
Crop tops and high waist skirts have been everywhere this season, from streetstyle to numerous runway shows such as Prada, Versace, Emilio Pucci, Acne, Proenza Schouler. This look can suit several body shapes; if you are curvy, the best way to wear it might be with a regular crop top and high waist skirt, that way you will be drawing attention to your slimmest body parts. And if you are the type of girl who says NO to carbs and hits the gym 4 times a week and drinks smoothies for snacks, then the ideal crop top would be shorter and worn with low rise skirt or trousers showing off your slim body and abs.

PASTEL COMBO:
Which colors better represent spring vibes other than sweet candy pastels? High street fashion has picked up this momentum which is now the “IT” trend. Pastel comes in different colors and tones such as blue, yellow, green, coral and pink. Oversized blue coats and jackets mixed with yellow tops styled with green trousers or skirts is the way to wear this trend and fortunately, you will not look like the easter bunny thanks to many top designers such as Jason Wu, and Rebecca Taylor who recreated the colors this spring into sleek and elegant looks.
