Well ladies, spring has sprung and the fashions for spring are pure fun! No more baggy diaper pants (what on earth were they thinking???) and unwearable trends. This season, we have the movies to thank for bringing us flirty feminine looks. “The Help” brought us 50s inspired ladylike dresses in florals and pastels. Chanel is showing them with uncuffed ankle socks in bold solids and lace. We like Oroblu’s Doris patterned pantyhose in nude with a fishnet and dot pattern that keeps these dresses from looking a little too sweet. “Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”  continues the trend in black leather and sheer black dresses for  overtly sexy tough girl chic. Black bandage tights are straight off the runway, and black fishnets and seamed hosiery complete these looks with maximum impact. “The Artist” gives us 20s inspired flapper shift dresses in sheer and floaty fabrics. (Although for fall Marc Jacobs has gone for early 1900s with dramatic hats and ankle length dresses and cut-away coats.) These fun swingy dresses cry out for ladylike sheer thigh high stockings with a stay up lace band. Some runways also showed these dresses with knee high fishnet socks and open toed sandals.

So ladies, enjoy the sassy trends for spring, and be sure to visit us at www.coccolareboutique.com!
