Update your spring wardrobe with the latest accessories. Splurging on these five must-have fashion trends will freshen up your look without breaking the bank.
Add a touch of floral
Floral prints are always trendy for spring, but 2011 takes floral to a whole new level. Fun flowery patterns go way beyond dresses and tops to adorn everything from shoes and handbags to headbands and scarves. Add some floral-print accessories to your existing wardrobe, and you’ll be in full-bloom on the fashion scene.
| Tip: Don’t wear all of your floral accessories at the same time! Less is more! |

Strut your stuff in nude shoes
Spring 2011 runways are bursting with bright colors, and you can balance the trend with gorgeous nude shoes. Peep-toe pumps and strappy sandals in subdued nude shades won’t detract from your eye-popping spring ensembles.

Go retro with 1970s-inspired sunglasses
High-waisted pants and big collars aren’t the only 70s trends making a comeback. Greet Spring 2011 with a big, bold pair of colorful sunglasses. The plastic frames are so affordable that you can stock up on all of the fun, trendy colors: teal, yellow, orange and white!
| Tip: Pair your funky shades with a floral top or dress. |

Obi sash belts
Show off your gorgeous curves with an obi sash belt. This “belt” is simply a piece of fabric worn around the waist to accentuate the smallest part of the torso. Obi belts are all over the Spring 2011 runways. Break up your outfit with a colorful fabric belt, or make your hourglass look even more pronounced with a dark leather sash.
| Tip: Try a floral-print sash for an uber-trendy look! |
