Neon

Nina says: "Hints of neon are still in for spring, but it's reaching over-saturation."

Keep the neon to a minimum this spring. Neon accents or accessories are the safest bet.

Leather Leggings

Nina says: "Leather leggings are not going away."

Although they may be intimidating, buying a pair could add a bit of an edge to your spring wardrobe.

White After Labor Day

Nina says: "White after labor day is a mainstay."

According to Garcia, the old rule no longer applies, so don't worry about trashing all of your white after the start of September.

Denim on Denim

Nina says: "Denim on denim can work great, but it all depends on the shade and texture."

The key is subtlety here. Go for contrasting tones and shades to get that modern-urban style.

FUR

Nina says: "As long as there is a fall and winter, fur will always be in."

Might be time to invest in a fur (of faux fur) item.
