I’ve been spending a LOT of time looking at ready-to-wear Spring 2010 collections, watching Launch My Line & Project Runway, and perusing fashion zines from around the world. Combine that with the awesomely inspiring crowd at Fashion Feud last night, and I just had to put together some style pages for how to rock my accessories this spring.
The top look is all about taking spring classics like neutrals (think khaki, cargo, cotton, denim) in the inevitable military, safari and nautical looks and mixing them up hardcore with fresh, modern brights. VERY brights. Right now, accessories are all about the bigger, the bolder, the BETTER. Photo courtesy of Diane Von Furstenberg’s collection.
The second look is more edgy, eclectic and young. The idea here is more is MORE. Load on Madonna bows, Cosby sweaters and funky prints ranging from tribal to geometric. It’s not just okay to mix patterns, it’s a very fresh way to repurpose things that you already own. Retro, kitsch, modern, fun; whatever your style, turn up the volume this spring.

I threw in a couple of my accessories that immediately spoke to me, but really anything goes. What are YOU feeling for Spring 2010?
