Spring Wear for the Rest of Us

© Anne Paxton

Spring is just around the corner for most of us and as the days grow longer and warmer there can be a cry heard from one coast to the next: “Do I have to wear shorts?” Thankfully, with the wonderful advancing world of fashion shorts may no longer be a problem. Selections for summer wear have grown from the typical T-shirt and shorts attire.

Cotton—the greatest creation ever if you ask me—provides alternatives to the typical shorts dilemma. Cotton provides both comfort and the ability for your body to breath through the clothes you are wearing. The best blast from the past and use of cotton is the capri pant. Capri pants are long enough to cover problem areas that you may not want to expose, but casual enough to be accepted as comfortable summer wear to the market or the beach. Another example of comfortable cotton pants is linen. Soft, durable, and best of all professional looking, you can wear these in your living room or the boardroom. Both of these pants can be found on www.jcrew.com where they have a selection of different pant types to choose from and more importantly they are having a spring sale that won’t break your bank account!

If you are into a more daring look the latest styles coming out of Milan might be to your taste of hiding problem areas but still showing off that beautiful body of yours. Long pants that are wide-legged with a slightly see through material give peek-a-boo affect allowing the appearance of legs but unable to distinguish much else. These pants are the ultimate item that hides and tantalizes at the same time. Giorgio Armani’s Spring 2002 collection which, can bee seen on www.fashionview.com, has many versions of this styles. You can see many of these types of skirts once you get on the website by clicking on Women’s Collections and then clicking Giorgio Armani.

You may say I am too much of a fan, but once again I have to say the king of the casual/comfortable/professional look is Calvin Klein. He is a fashion gift to women. No one seems to quite understand the simplicity and elegance that women crave the way CK does. Simple knee-length skirts and wide legged shorts that move with your body help make you feel and look comfortable. His spring collection can also be viewed on www.firtview.com, following the path to Women’s Collection and then clicking on Calvin Klein.
