5 Fuckin Trends...

It's just about that time of year again, spring has sprung! No more hoodies, definitely no more flannels, and a lot more sandals. I know what you're thinking-- damn, you've eliminated all of my basics, my wardrobe is looking pretty fucking sparse right now! Never fear, we got you covered here at The Ladies First with a compilation of some of the sickest trends poppin' off this spring. Peep our picks below...

Vests!

Hell yeah, I know you've all been rockin' your vests all winter long--tweeds and knits have been your basics right? Vests will still be around for this spring, but they are getting a little update. Borrowing from grunge (which we all know is the biggest trend for Spring anyways), vests are no longer cute and petite, but rather bulky and scene-making. Try new fabrics and shapes, like a biker-esque leather vest, or a cropped, boxy denim cut-off version. The "New Vest" will become your best friend, I swear! Throw it on over a girlie sundress to look a little bad-ass, or layer it ontop of Tees and Tanks to give a basic look some edge.

Geek Glasses!

I'll admit it... this trend is so self-indulgent and ridiculous, but I'm cosigning it nonetheless. Whether you're blind or not, Geek Glasses add a dose of chic to any bummy outfit. Perfect with office wear, streetwear, and a no-brainer for all your hipster wear, they look great with just about any ensemble you throw together. Designers have been churning them out in all shapes, sizes, and colors, so if you're feeling silly I'd suggest coppin' a pair.

Summer Boots

Between you and me, sandals are so overrated. Sure, your feet breathe a little more when you have sandals on, and you can see your toes. But the upsides end there, my friends. We all know that boots are the business! Unfortunately, though, designers have to churn out a profit to cater to all you sandal-wearing masses. But with a preview of all the summer shoes we've been seeing, I'd say they're finding it a little hard to let go of the boot fetish for spring. Welcome to summer boots, ladies! The bootie and ankle boots are still going strong for spring, but with intricate lacings and strategically placed cut-outs designed to show off a dope pedi. Get two pairs--a softer, flatter pair for daytime and a fierce, bitchin pair for nighttime.

Christian Louboutin

Candela

Harem Pants

Pump up the volume! You either love them or hate them, and I happen to love them. Take a break from your skinnies and try out this new silhoutte. Be a sophisticated lady with a black, sleek mid-calf length pair, or be bold and go 2 Legit To Quit on em with wild, crazy full length ones. Either way, you'll be able to eat a sandwich at lunch without worrying that you're gonna pop a button on your skinny jeans.

American Apparel

Navajo Print Dresses
We all need a pretty dress. Don't be boring and get a jersey one, or a black one. Get one of these instead! They're pretty, flattering, and will make you look a lot doper than most of your friends!
