Now that the Spring 2009 Fashion Shows are over, we have a pretty good sense of what the trends will be for the season. One-shoulder dresses and tops, white dresses, high-waisted pants, shorts and skirts, ruffles, embellished necks, Bohemian style and see-through fabrics are a few of the styles we’ll see.


Checking out Sales recently, I noticed quite a few items that would work perfectly for Spring 2009. As stores clear out their Summer inventory to make room for Fall and Winter items, it’s a great time to score big on Spring Fashion. Sure, the clothes might sit in your closet for a few months, but you’ll be ready come March.


Sure, I know you’re stocking up on Fall/Winter items right now, but if you focus on finding a few iconic items for Spring now, while they’re on sale, you’ll save big in the long run. I’ve never shopped ahead like this before, but I think I’ll start doing this each season. Especially as things get tighter in this economy!
