It’s time to ditch the autumnal layers, burnt oranges, and scarves, and make way for the biggest trends of the season. Spring is all about vitality and life so it makes sense that the trends on the catwalk are bold and colorful too. What’s become clear is that a hint of skin is very in. This trend is set to go through spring and into the summer months too, so it’s well worth investing in. Here’s how to nail the hint of skin spring look, and feel confident enough to bare all…
J.O.A. Stripe Off Shoulder Blouse
Off The Shoulder
Off the shoulder tops are huge this season, but it’s only one side of the classic design that’s being given the cold shoulder. Tops which drop on one side are easy to wear and flattering for most shapes. The traditional off the shoulder top exposed both shoulders and could make some of us look a little broad. Luckily for us, it’s about one dropped shoulder this season. This look works well with a blue and white striped fabric, oversized sunglasses and chinos or jeans, think riviera style!

Sports
The sports luxe look was huge last year and transformed humble gym gear. This spring’s all about reinventing athleisure. Alexander Wang, Versace, and Dolce & Gabbana all showcased sporty looks which flashed a little flesh. Loose short shorts or tight slightly cropped leggings are a good way to nail this look. Pair leggings with an oversized parka just like Versace. If you’re not looking forward to flashing your legs after a long cold winter, that’s understandable. Make sure you exfoliate your entire body once a week and try applying tinted moisturizer for a sun kissed look on your legs. This will make you feel confident enough to rock this look.

Utilitarianism
This trend mixes the best of both worlds. Boxy and boyish shapes are combined with deep v-neck cuts to combine androgynous with femininity. This trend works best with a khaki fabric and oversized pieces. Scarves are the go-to accessory for winter and it can be daunting to do away with them. Unfortunately wearing scarves can irritate our skin, which won’t leave it ready for plunging necklines! Use skincare products which contain retinol. Retinol is widely used as an alternative to anti wrinkle injections. It is amazing at reducing the appearance of fine lines, making skin appear fuller, and also rejuvenated. It’s a must for anyone looking to trial this trend. Your skin really will be your best accessory so make sure face to neck, you’re glowing.

Sheer Cut-Out Dresses
This has been a huge trend on the red carpet as stars embrace the cut-out sheer dress look. Sheer dresses are placed over oversized briefs/shorts and bodies. This works best when the materials are darker as it creates a romantic, gothic look.
