Bambi's Spring Trend Report

God damn Rebecca Black ruined Fridays for me. I can't say "it's Friday" without the song getting stuck in my head. Back in the day whenever I would get excited about it being Friday R Kelly's Thank God it's Friday or Krayzie Bone's Friday would come to mind. Pretty gangsta eh? Well I was a fan.. Not anymore because they don't make them like they used to. Ahh Bone Thugs.. I loved! But now.. It's Rebecca Black! Things will never go back to the way they used to be. *sigh* Anyway, a little warning.. I might throw a little tantrum every Friday until it wears off.

It's FBFF and today I get to choose 5 spring trends that I'm looking forward to. There are many but I'll try to pick 5 of my favourites .
  • Wide Leg Pants: I love 'em. Day or night, party or beach. Doesn't matter. The variations from sequins, to neutral to denim and even floral, with heels, flats, clogs.. I'm crazy about this trend. Here are a few of my faves.

  • Flared Jeans: Oh the excitement. I'm loving this trend and everything about it. I'm just going to post a post that I really think shows you how they should be worn. Love Michelle William's look. Just love it.

  • Florals: I don't do flowers. I also don't do pink. But this season, I'm doing both.. To those who know me, this may come as a shock, but pick up your jaws people, and embrace the girly me.

  • Crayola: (yes yes I know I know they're called block colours, but I like Crayola.. it's perfect in every sense of the word). Bright, solid colours, No print or stripes, or lace or embroidery. Just 1 item.. 1 colour.. mixed with a different item.. and different colour. This is for the bold and the freak. Alas.. behold the beauty of crayola colours.

  • Blue Jean Baby: L.A. ladyyyy.. seamstress for the bannddd.. Ok enough Elton, more denim. Last year's trend is back with a big bang this season with more options. Now as big as skittles-coloured jeans are this season, I'm still crushing on the original blue.


Elie Tahari, Derek Lam, Celine, D&G
Well if you haven't figured it out already, my song choice of the day is Tiny Dancer by Sir Elton John. Only this video is a clip from one of my all time favourite movies, Almost Famous. Best part of the movie. Enjoy!


Feeling girly,
Bambi

      Bekah: As much as I love the color pop, I'm not so sure I can pull it off. I'll let you know if it works :)
