Nothing is more lovely than Lace!

What's on trend for spring? Well, all you have to do is open a fashion magazine (and in some cases just look at the cover) to see what everyone from celebrities to housewives is wearing this season. Lace detailing is on everything, and the Ellie boutiques are your one stop shop for all things lace. Trust us, you dont want to miss out on this trend for 2011!

FLOWER POWER

A hot trend for spring 2011.... florals. These pretty prints scream SPRING is HERE! Although spring isn't until march, you can wear this trend now by toning down the floral with a cardigan or jacket.

Try pairing floral prints with a denim jacket or try a floral top tucked into a cream or ivory skirt. Or, if you prefer a dress, break up the floral with a boyfriend cardigan belted at the waist.

Floral prints mare you instantly feel happier!

This spring, the floral prints are pretty, not messy. Instead of an overload of flowers, these prints tend to be more diluted and the color combos used stick to a few colors instead of an overkill of color.

Happy Spring!!!

If you want to try the trend... take a look at a few of the options we have in our store.

Floral top, $39.70

Floral dress (shown below) $45.70

What every celebrity is wearing..........

Cargo skinny jeans.

Pair your cargo skinnies with a blousy t or a long tank and fitted blazer. You can wear these day or night. For the day, go casual with lace up boots and an oversized top. For night, pair the rugged cargo jeans with heels and a shimmery top. Perfect.

Try these that we have in our store... Dark denim, cargo skinny jeans. Call us 334-887-4226 if you want to order.

Leather and Fur

Two trends that you should try for the fall and winter are: Leather and Fur. There is something about a grungy leather jacket that you can throw on with a frilly dress or jeans and it makes it seem much cooler.

Fur is also very cool, whether you have a fur vest you wear with skinny jeans and boots, or a vest you wear over a dress... fur is cute and makes a statement. You can also try fur in a more subtle way with a fur accent on a jacket or a touch of fur on a purse or pair of shoes. Try it, you will turn heads!

A few things we have in the store:

Leg Warmers

This trend started in the 80s and like always, we see trends trickle back through the years. Leg warmers-are back!

You might be scared to give them a try, but trust me, they are more toned down than the ones you saw in the 80s. We aren't talking about pink, blue or yellow leg warmers; try a black pair with booties or a tan pair with heels.

At ellie boutique, we have a pair of black leg warmers that are knit, and made by Tulle. They are just enough of fashion meets comfort without being over the top. Give them a try!
