From florals to pastels, Washingtonian women show us how to wear the latest trends with flair.
SPRING FLING
Patterned floral dresses may come off as a garden variety staple, but this spring, runway style helps this trend transcend with delicate details and organic color palette. Evoke calm simplicity with vintage floral patterns in soft grays, yellows, and whites.

COLOR CODED
Blazers, colors, and neons! Oh my! Color-blocking offers a bright way to hit the streets, combining brightly colored blazers, neon pumps, and primary colored accessories. Not for the weak of heart, Washingtonians are taking this look from the runway to real life.

GILDED GRACE
If you’re still dusting glitter off from holiday fetes, try a muted take on the trend with metallic accents. Finish off a silk tunic or floral day dress with an eye-catching belt, drop earrings or a set of bangles, in this rich hue.
