Trend Report- Hi-Lo Hemlines
Lately, I've been seeing many clothing pieces that incorporate the hi-lo trend. I've seen them on skirts, shirts, and dresses. This silhouette looks great on petite people, since it is higher in the front. This shows off some leg, so it elongates the frame. It's also flattering on taller people. Check out my Polyvore set for ideas on how to wear this trend!
Hope you enjoyed!

Trend Report - Summer 2012
Floral Prints are really popular for summer. Designers such as Antonio Marras and Mary Katrantzou are using clashing colors and prints. For something more wearable, choose one piece in a floral pattern, and keep the rest of your outfit fairly simple. You can try a statement necklace or a pair of floral shoes to rock this trend while still looking everyday appropriate.
Crop Tops were in for spring and summer of 2011, and now their back for 2012! Not all crop tops are super short and end at the bust. You can find some that go to the middle of your torso, and even some that are just above your hip. If a crop top you like is too short to wear to school, just wear a tank top/camisole under it. You can also pair it with high waisted bottoms to cover up a bit more.
Peplum style items are also big for summer. These pieces flare out at the waist, which gives the illusion of curves. You can find these in tops, bottoms, or dresses.
I hope this was helpful!
