Style is in Bloom at New Towne Mall
March 8, 2007 (New Philadelphia, Ohio) -- Winter is on it´s way out, Spring is in the air and the Spring shopping season at New Towne Mall has never looked better.
What´s the biggest trend in Spring Fashion? Dresses. And lots of ´em! There are babydolls, kimono-sleeve dresses, shirtdresses, wrap dresses and jersey dresses. They work for daytime and nighttime, and there´s a look for every body, age and budget. But there´s more to this spring than just dresses: metallics, patent, animal prints and bangle bracelets all make appearance in this seasons hottest trends.
Maurices is ready for all of Spring´s fashion trends with floral and gingham dresses, cap sleeve tops and bermuda shorts for easy-going weekend attire. For work or a night out on the town, select a great tube dress with a scarf hem or a tailored coat dress. And if you need a dose of jean therapy, Maurices has bootcut, flare and wide leg denim to choose from.
For the coolest looks in surf and skate this Spring, you´ll want to be sure to check out the tee´s, tanks and cami´s at PacSun. PacSun has fun fashion tops from hoodies to henleys to woven shirts. Pair them with the prefect jeans, cute shoes and fun accessories to create the perfect laid back Spring look.
The most important shoe trends this spring are peep-toe, and natural materials such as cork, wood or raffia. For good measure, throw in wedge or stacked heels, anything metallic or fun ballet flats. Payless ShoeSource always offers the season´s hottest new items and Manager Judy Garner says this Spring is no exception, "Women´s linens are big for Spring this year. With simple details like straps, peek toes and buckles, women´s naturals capture style trends from preppy to nautical with details including rope, stripes and dots in canvas and denim materials."
The hottest selling jewelry collection this season is the Journey diamond collection. This collection consists of pendants, earrings and rings. The Journey "S" pendant and earrings seems to be the most popular, says Tom Williams, manager of Art´s Jewelers. "Hearts on Fire Jewelry is also very popular. Hearts on Fire is the world´s most perfectly cut diamond and comes in rings, earrings, pendants, bracelets and unset diamonds."
Another trend in jewelry is ´chunky and funky.´ It´s not for everyone, but if you choose to wear it, remember your necklace is making a statement, so keep the rest of the outfit simple & elegant, or fun (jersey is the perfect fabric for this look). For these looks, visit Claire´s Boutique and Finders Keepers stores.
If you´re thinking more of the April Showers than May Flowers, you´ll want to check out the rain gear at Raven Rock Workwear. Manager Chris Anderson says that Raven Rock carries brands that hold up to extreme weather and working conditions and, yes, carries rain gear and all the accessories.
