Bring on the color and pattern! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450711 Mon, 24 Oct 2011 01:03:05 +0000 Kristen 450711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I looked at the larger slideshow and I have to confess, the pastels weren't that bad. They were nice and clear instead of the muddy ones we usually think of for pastels, and they all continued to make good use of the color-blocking trend by mixing up some intriguing combinations. I am a bold and bright color fan, but I think I might be checking some pastels out next spring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450696 Mon, 24 Oct 2011 00:43:21 +0000 annagybe 450696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the digital prints and the abstracts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450680 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 23:51:10 +0000 Suz 450680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uh....my eyes are going to need some time to adjust, as our Angie would say! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450618 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 22:15:32 +0000 rosee 450618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>...just like the matte satin and the bird prints ...but not how they showed it. The clothes were terrible but I like the format of the presentation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450610 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 22:05:20 +0000 ironkurtin 450610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*rolls eyes*</p> <p>Yes yes Elle, whatever you say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450606 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 21:56:45 +0000 fern 450606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope deep sea appears somewhere!<br /> Not quite the way they are showing, though.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450557 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 20:42:39 +0000 Janet 450557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, I love the idea of digital prints -- I so want to make clothing out of my artwork! And I like the bird prints and maybe a baroque flourish or a little abstract art. </p> <p>But pastels on me, yuck. Same for dropped waists. The closest I'll get to a peplum will probably be the little one on the Hinge leather jacket I bought at NAS. And I am definitely beyond the years for a bared midriff, unless it's a bikini and I'm on a tropical beach! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450555 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 20:40:05 +0000 bella 450555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not a print person but I like all pattern ideas here: birds, deep sea, digital imaging, abstract art. Love all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450540 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 20:17:22 +0000 lyn* 450540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Think about combining all 10 things into ONE DRESS. It would be hilarious.</p> <p>An abstract baroque digital print of under-the-sea birds in pastel colours in matte satin with drop waist and peplum hem.</p> <p>Phew. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450532 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 20:10:25 +0000 Anonymous 450532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Drop waists, eh? Maybe a belted dress will finally land on my natural waistline, hehe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450519 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 19:44:08 +0000 MsMary 450519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uh, Elle?</p> <p>No. Just, uh, no. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450518 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 19:41:49 +0000 Blue Skies 450518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting! I agree on the matte satin and the bird prints. I think I could even go for a few baroque flourishes with the right application. I would also agree that Angie's list is better. I would say that it is a better prediction of what we will actually be wearing, rather than an editorial view on what's hot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450506 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 19:15:10 +0000 CocoLion 450506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie's list is more focused and clearly thought out. As someone who rarely wears dresses or even skirts, I found it hard to relate to the Elle list. I like the idea of bird prints though! But no more midriff baring looks! for me! The last time this look came around, what was it, 10-15 years ago, I participated because I still had the flat abs on my side, but alas no more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elles-top-10-trends-for-spring-2012#post-450499 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 19:08:10 +0000 Kate 450499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://www.elle.com/Fashion/Trend-Reports/Top-10-Trends-From-Spring-2012" rel="nofollow">http://www.elle.com/Fashion/Tr.....pring-2012</a></p> <p>Thoughts? I think the only one I might be adding to my wardrobe is matte satin. </p> <p>I like Angie's list better - it's much more accessible! <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2011/09/30/trends-for-spring-and-summer-2012/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2011/09/.....mmer-2012/</a> </p>
