Style is in Bloom at New Towne Mall
New Philadelphia, Ohio (March 22, 2006) -- Style is in bloom at New Towne Mall. The freshest looks for spring have arrived, ready to be hand picked by you. T-shirts, tanks, skirts, sandals - all your seasonal favorites… all in one place.
One of the hot new fashion ideas this spring is to take a key element in your wardrobe and make it suitable for work, play, glamorous or global looks. Kohl´s department store has great ideas on how to make their apparel work for all different occasions.
In a ´posh to playful´ look, try a tweed jacket over a laced cami and add capri jeans with heeled flip flops, then take off the jacket for a great playful look. When going straight from the office to an evening out, try a solid ribbed tank with a suit jacket and pants, and then change into a printed tiered skirt. And when transforming from ´lively to lovely,´ pair a printed floral skirt with a denim jacket and knit top and change into a white woven shirt for a look that says ´charming.´
Another fashion trend for women is "shirts and fashion jeans worn with a short jacket," says Sherri Jewell, manager of CJ Banks. "We are also seeing a lot of prints being mixed."
For men looking to take a look from corporate to casual - a blue dress shirt goes great with a jacket, pants and tie, then remove the tie and change into khaki pants. And from a laid back look to an on track look - try a black suit coat with a sports shirt and denim jeans. That same jacket can also be paired with black suit pants, a dress shirt and tie for a more pulled together look.
Teen girls will want to try a look that goes from glam to global - try a knit top with jewel studded gauchos, chandelier earrings, and double row metallic beaded necklace, then change into a pieced long skirt and sandal for a more bohemian look.
Young men can find different looks as well, from independent to intellectual. The same khaki shorts can be worn with a short sleeved polo and then change into a short sleeved woven shirt over a t-shirt.
New spring and summer colors are making a splash this season in both apparel and shoes. Christopher and Banks´ apparel will wow you with their new colors including English lavender, coral blossom, sour apple, orange tang and more, all in great feminine styles. "From flats to heels, metallics continue to be a hot fashion trend in shoes in brushed golds and bronze," says Judy Garner of Payless ShoeSource. "Look for vibrant colors like green, blue, yellow and orange in canvas shoes as well as prints, stripes and color blocking."
And don´t forget the accessories. Hand to Heart features Unisex Sky Belts and Sky Clips in many colors this season and The Red Chair is currently featuring prom accessories and sunglasses. Hats are always in style and Hat World is the place to get all the hottest trends for spring and summer. Manager San Hardesty says Major League baseball, NCAA, Kangol, Nike, Hurley, Hat Chick for women and create-your-own hats are the most popular styles right now.
Check out CBK for spring candle warmers, soy candles and licensed college candles.
And don´t miss the spring release of the Chronicles of Narnia DVD on April 4th at FYE, the "DaVinci Code" in paperback on March 28th and "Two Little Girls in Blue" by Mary Higgins Clark on April 4th at Waldenbooks.
