Hot trends for Spring 2012!

The items below are what I think will be the hottest trends for Spring 2012. The fact is, no one really knows what the trendiest items are because it kind of happens and goes with the flow, so really the only way you can predict it is to

1. Think about the trends of last year

2. Think about trends that have been going on for evveerr!

3. Things that make sense 

4. Things you wear that you think will make a huge comback or keep going. So! With that being said lets get naming

• Colored denim. It made a huge hit in 2011 and is still going to go strong wit

• Colored Denim. It made a huge mark in 2011 and now it's time for 2012's time to shine. They're going to look especially good as pastels in the sping. I can just feel it :) haha. However I don't own a pair of colored denim but I think if I see some aqua or lavender ones I'll probably pick them up! They're really easy to style also, just throw on a graphic tee, some colored denim, and some uggs or boots or flats or whatever you want and call it good. They can also be dressy. Just wear them with the right tank or shirt or jacket and it adds instant niceness.
• Dip dye hair. I believe in September or October, Heather Morris--from glee--was see on Seventeen Magazine's cover with colored ends hair. She had all the colors of the rainbow going however it looks beautiful even with just one color or two or three..etc;. etc....I really want to try this but It's a little to edgy for me. (This just in! Selena Gomez was spotted with purple and blue dip dye!!!)
• Floral clothing. I myself really love floral print but for some odd reason, it became really popular throughout the entire 2011 year with everything from shorts, skirts, tops, leggings, bags, even pants! PANTS! I really like the skirt in the picture, I don't know where it's from though. You can find a skirt like it from basically anystore that sells clothing and is modern, heck I bet you could find one in a vintage or thrift store!
• THE NAKED PALETTE! From rant to rant to rave to rave and back again, we've all heard of the Naked palette, even people who don't wear makeup have heard of the Naked Palette. The reason the Urban Decay Naked Palette has been so hyped about is because neutral/ natural colors have been really in, the whole bright blue eye shadow isn't cutting it anymore grandma! The hippie boho chic look has though. With its prices high, and cares low people bought and bought and bought the N palette to a point where the Urban Decay creators had to make a 2nd Palette! Named obviously, The Naked Palette 2 with more matte colors rather than shimmer and a whopping fresh new 5 shades for the likes of my fellow beauty lovers.
• Cat eye sunglasses. Wayfarer shades are so 2011. I actually got so sick of seeing people with the nerd glasses, that I hunted for a cute new style that wasn't freaky. The cat eye shaped lens is, in my opinion, fresher and will be most likely the new best thing. I'm only kidding, I love wayfarers but come on, aren't you a little sick of seeing them everywhere. Try a new shape. Cat eye sunglasses or just glasses are super retro but are quirky and modern if work correctly. 
• High waisted shorts. Love the pair I'm showing you up there. They're grey with a huge bow. The bow adds a girly touch to the interesting look of the shorts. You've got to be careful and wear it with the right top though.
• Crossbody bags. They come in all shapes, sizes, colors, patterns all to fit your need. They're really stylish and can be worn basically anywhere. It's again, a tad bit associated with the hippie look and was very popular in 2011 but I think that they will be just as wonderful in the year 2012 (ps. they're really convenient to college or school students that go to sports games or to the mall or activities because its small enough to not get in the way, but big enough to carry keys, cell phone, money, ID, Lip gloss and even a snack.
• Leopard print anything. It speaks for itself people
• Revlon Lip butters. Again, rant rant rant, rave rave rave the lip butters a GIANT GIANT GIANT  for 2012. I actually picked up Strawberry Shortcake from Target (its one of their colors) and it doesn't really have a taste but its really soft and melty and does a great job with color and hydration for the lips. Most of the colors are pretty neutral so they're extra wearable but the bad thing is, I know it doesn't sound expensive but at $6.00 to $9.00 they're kinda pricey each just for ONE lip butter. On the bright side, they're really nice so they're pretty much worth it. And they're popular so who gives a crap.

Thats all for this post but I hope you enjoyed and try out some trends for the Spring season!

Get your hands on these items NOW!

• The picture above shows what you need to get NOW. Honestly these are just my opinion but I hope that this guide helps you whether it be to purchase a gift for someone, learn about the deals going on, or just realize that you really need a Pea coat because it's been getting cold where you live :).  Lets go backwards this time since lately with the pictures we start from the beginning. I also added some other things because they will either--in my opinion--be going out of style soon, or is limited edition.
• First we have a peppermint mocha from Starbucks. I know I mentioned it in my last blog post, but I can't tell you how wonderful this is! I really like that they decorate it so your not just paying like $4.00 for a mocha, you're paying for a warm peppermint mocha with fresh whipped cream and ... peppermint flavoring shavings? I think that's what it is. Either way, they decorate to perfection, and it tastes super yummy. (Just for a side note, I also love the ginger one, but I don't know what that's called, probably just a ginger cappuccino.)
•  Next up to the plate, or should I say type, is the Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette. It's a little bit on the pricier side at $55, but If you love Urban Decay and you've got the money, go for it! I don't know how long this pallette will be out so that's why I included this shadow set.
• Working our way back we find ourselves looking (staring) at this gorgeous sparkly Alice + Olivia Dress. I don't know what this retails for, but a dress in general for winter formal would be perfect right now. Since winter formal is about a month or two away, buying the dress now while stores are having sales is a big bonus. (Another side note, sparkles, sequins, and glitter, are totally in this fall/winter so bring out the shine!)
• Yaay! Were making progress, finally at the top. Okay, so here's the dillio, we've all heard of the Crackle nail polish right? Well lets just say that I'm not a big fan. . However If you like crackle nail polish, I suggest buying it now because it's really popular and the price will be jacked up for the holidays. Or it could be a giant sale and you could get a bunch for cheap...hmm. 
• This one is super exciting because I'm getting one Friday! I'm so excited because I've never had a peacoat before and they are so comfortable and cute. Plus they go with everything, and not just color-wise but  it would look good with a t-shirt just as with a pretty blouse...who says blouse these days. I probably typed that because in spanish class today we learned that a "blouse" is called a "blusa" or "la blusa" lol.
• Last on the list is my favorite because I've been eyeing them but they are soooooooooo super expensive. Well to me anyway. Purple sequin Uggs are new this year I think. I really really really want them so bad. The color is sooooooooo pretty too. It's a blue and purple mixed but most of all, it's sequined! Maybe if I saved up enough I could get them and do a review. How would you do a review on a shoe though? I'm not sure. Anywho, thanks for reading my post :) 

Please check out my facebook page, the link is on the right. Unfortunately it will take you out of my blog and won't just make another tab, so read all my posts first and then go :) just kidding. Oh and vote my pole I really need feedback. I would also appreciate comments. I was really excited because I had a comment just the other day on my post about "A girls best friend" Thanks to Pandora's Box blog please check out her blog, it's really nice and she talks about the same stuff as me :) Xoxo Shenae!
