What’s New for Spring?

Friday, February 26th, 2010

You HAVE to COME IN and SEE all these CUTE SPRING ACCESSORIES for yourself!  I just had the best market trip in a long time and when you come to Collage you’ll see what I mean!  

Since this is a quick note to give you FIRST DIBS, I don’t have many pictures to show you.  You’ll just have to come in and see all these amazing purses, colorful scarves and great looking jewelry for yourself!  Come see us ASAP because these new Spring accessories are already selling fast!

Below are THREE of the NEW 2010 Spring Trends that we loaded up on. 

#1 Trend – FLOWERS

You are going to see flowers on purses, necklaces, pins, RINGS, scarves – EVERYWHERE.  I’m not talking floral prints, although you’ll see that, too – even in prom dresses – but what we are seeing is THREE-DIMENSIONAL flowers!  And you’ll find them all throughout all the Collage stores!

#2 Trend – LUCITElucite flower

Especially in jewelry, you’ll see lucite in clear, in bright colors and in smoky hues.  And when you combine lucite WITH flowers you are really on trend!  We’ve got them at Collage RIGHT NOW!   Start thinking ahead to what you are going to wear for Easter.  You may want to design your outfit around a cute lucite flower necklace!

#3 Trend – ZIPPERSzipper cuff

We started seeing zippers in jewelry and purses in the Fall and now they’ve made their way into bracelets, rings and and in non-traditional ways in apparel.  Then picture a 3-D flower edged with a zipper trim on a purse and you’ll be Ms Spring Fashion 2010!  Come to Collage and get yours!

We have much more, but these 3 trends above are so easy to interpret for all ages that we think YOU are going to have a great time with fashion this Spring, too!

Chic_t-shirtOh, and by the way, we are expecting our consignment-themed t-shirts to be in the stores NEXT week and will keep you posted!  You are going to LOVE them!!

 

See you soon at Collage!
