Today’s trend is HAIR!

While we are typically focused on what you wear every week, this time we want to see what your favorite hairstyles are! Do you like to wear it straight, curly, in a pony, a messy bun or an intricate braid? Let us see your favorite looks today.

For my look today, I decided to put in my favorite pre-curled extensions from Hair2Wear! These extensions are so easy to use because there is no prep time. Since they are already curled, I run a curling iron or flat iron over my natural hair, clip the extensions in and go!

Because I like my extensions really thick looking, I actually double up on the extensions, and pull off what they would call “The Christie”! I layer them on top of each other to create extra thickness and volume. While I used to mix and match the colors, this time around I used two of the Light Blonde 16″ curled extension pieces, they can be found HERE!Next time I wear the extensions, I definitely want to try a braided crown or even possibly a pulled up up-do or ponytail. If you need to try them on to match your hair, you can always stop by your local Sally Beauty store to try them out!

Today, I am also excited to announce that you could have the opportunity to win a set of your own extensions. The trend spin linkup has teamed up with Hair2Wear to offer one grand prize winner a fabulous set of products ($150 giftcard to Nordstrom + Hair2Wear Product Suite) and 10 runner ups these same extension pieces seen on the three cohosts today (Hair2Wear 16″ Extensions).

During the spring and summer months, I live in dresses! They are so easy to throw on and I end up wearing them to work, on the weekends and even running errands.

Today’s trend is FLORALS!

For Mother’s Day this year I decided to wear one of my favorite floral blazers from Ro & De, sold at Nordstrom and made the look a little more casual by pairing it with my distressed boyfriend jeans from Zara. I typically wear a dress on Mother’s Day, but every once in awhile it is fun to mix things up and make things a bit more casual.

How did you incorporate florals into your look this year?

Today’s trend is PRINTS!

Whether it is stripes, polka dots, flowers or more, we want to see the prints you are wearing most this season! And spring and summer and the perfect time to show them off in a fun and playful was 🙂

Since it has been raining up a storm in Salt Lake, I decided to throw on my printed rainboots! They are the perfect go to piece because they are easy to wear, comfortable and hold up well on those rainy days.

Also, you know when you buy a piece, and you just can’t stop wearing it, well this sweater is one of those pieces. I scored it at Nordstrom Rack, and although it was still a little pricey discounted (Vince is amazing, but not cheap), I have worn it so much already, it was totally worth the cost. I figure that if I am going to spend more, as long as it is a piece I can pull out of my closet on a regular basis, then it can be justified 🙂

Make sure to shop the Rack for lots more Vince options, I had no idea they carried so much of it, and nothing is better than a good deal.

 Next week’s trend is FLORALS!

It is mother’s day this upcoming Sunday, so that means I am going to be wearing lots of florals! I think we are planning on either making or taking my mom to breakfast and spending the day with the family, hopefully enjoying the new good weather outside.

What are your plans for Mother’s Day this weekend?

Spring Color Trends for 2016

Spring is known for saturated colors and bold finishes—not just in budding trees and blossoming flowers, but in fashion trends that reflect the season’s vibrancy as well. This spring, eye-catching hues and stand-out prints are plentiful, filling the runways and store shelves with oodles of designs to try for the warmer months heading our way. Whether you can’t resist a bright new blouse or are easily swayed by a striking pattern, these top trends are must-haves for your spring collection.

Shades of Orange

Energizing, exuberant, and refreshing, orange can also be intimidating when it comes to incorporating the hue into an outfit. But, as Style Caster notes, the bright color is more versatile than you’d expect. That’s good news because orange is one of spring’s hottest shades. To keep the color from looking too Halloween-themed, opt for a persimmon shade and pair with teal. Or go with a sherbet hue, which looks great when worn with olive green or pale pink. For those who are fans of true, vibrant orange or tangerine-inspired shades, pair with camel-colored pieces instead of the usual go-to neutral of black.

Abstract Florals

Florals are a staple of spring fashion, and this season, abstract prints are all the rage. Unlike realistic floral patterns (where a particular flower, like a daisy or rose, are clearly visible), abstract prints feature a design that is muted or blurred in some way. More subtle than a traditional floral, this spring trend lends a certain femininity and depth to any ensemble. For a full scope of the abstract floral print, Lyst provides an extensive edit of dresses, blouses, skirts, and more to get your wardrobe spring-ready. Try an off-the-shoulder blouse (as noted here) or flowy maxi dress for a romantic finish that incorporates even more of the season’s top trends.

Mixed Metallics

High-shine finishes may typically be associated with fall and winter, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t rock metallic for spring and beyond. This season, mix the on-trend incandescent material with neutral pieces and metal accessories to achieve a look that is equal parts casual and glam. To get your shimmer on, Lauren Conrad offers a variety of ways to master the mixed metallics trend. The first step is to choose a single metallic statement piece, adding touches of other metals into the ensemble with your accessories. Pair jeans and a neutral-hued suede blazer with silver pumps and gold bangle bracelets; a pleated gold midi skirt with a cropped leather jacket; or a metallic-print mini dress with rose gold clutch and nude sandals.

Graphic Lines

Stripes are no stranger to the spring season, but this time around, the playful print is anything but average. Vibrant colors, scattered lines, and embellished designs give this pattern a modern upgrade to take it into 2016 and beyond. To seamlessly incorporate this trend into your wardrobe, Brit + Co suggests swapping out your favorite striped pieces for ones that pack more of a punch, and looking for graphic lined styles that work as surprising statement pieces. Think midi dresses, wide-leg trousers, and light, spring-appropriate coats.
