If it isn't obvious based on the couple of Spring Peeks I've done, dresses are the wardrobe staple for Spring 2007. This is exciting news! Not only are dresses feminine but they have a natural ease and don't require as much matching skills as separates. They are also (usually) comfortable and are a look in itself. Lastly, they make you feel like a woman - and nobody's complaining about that! While the minidress was a standout, calf-length and floor-grazing gowns in a plethora of colors will be available for Spring.

The talk of fashion town is the extreme difference between the two over-arching trends for Spring 2007. The first one being Romanza and the second one being Intergalactic Planetary. Femme bots dominated the runways in a major way, with nods to fashion legends Paco Rabanne and Andre Courreges. The use of metals, plastics and black shiny leather created these bad attitude looks.

Whether you are sugar or spice, salt or pepper, nice or naughty, get used to seeing these trends trickle into your Spring wardrobe. I personally love the theatrics of this Spring Peek, but I crave the gorgeousness of Romanza. What are your thoughts?

Spring is in the air! Well, not quite, but it's in the pages of all the recent fashion mags. Check out my upcoming Spring Peeks for the fab new Spring 2007 trends that are just around the corner. I lightly wrote about Spring Trends after fashion week ended back in September and there is no denying Spring fashion is close. So get ready girls!

Spring Peek: Acrylic Accents

This transparent material was one of the key players in the dominant futuristic trend on the Spring runways. If full-fledged Barbarella-inspired outfits aren't your style, you can play with this trend via acrylic accents.
