lust list: spring

Nasty Gal Kate Muscle Tee//Free People O-Town Muscle Tank
MUSCLE TANKS: There's something about a high crewneck that seems really fresh right now. [I rolled my eyes at myself after I typed that, so you're allowed to too.] The masculine minimalist style of these tops just begs for a drapey maxi skirt or a cuffed-hem pair of rigid selvedge jeans.

Three of the four Courtin-Clarins girls in Pristine//Diane Kruger in Repossi
EDGY EARRINGS: I've been toying with the idea of some minor body modification lately, but as fickle as I am, it's probably best to try the impermanent version first. Until I have the budget of an heiress/movie star, I'll be freaking my mom out by wearing these.

Nike Dunk Sky Hi Liberty//Jeffrey Campbell Teramo
WEDGE SNEAKERS: Aside from a brief "sporty" phase in the third grade, my tastes have always been more silk than spandex, but the recent trend of athletic-inspired womenswear is a home run/touch down/slam dunk etc., etc. The wedge sneaker is everything I love about a high-top plus some added height. Ain't no shame in a little lift. Just ask Tom Cruise ;)
Gap//Current/Elliott//Zara
CUFFED DENIM: What is it about rolling the hem of jeans that instantly makes the look? I've been obsessed for months. I cuff everything. When shorts weather rolls around I may have a real problem. But until then, I'll be celebrating the transitional weather ankles-out.



Which spring trends have you sprung?
