These first few days of June have brought some sunshine with them (finally!) and that means you can start to break out your Summer wardrobe. Which if you’re like me, has been sitting in your closet taunting you for months already. There is nothing more quintessentially Summer than white, nothing more fresh or clean. This year brought a huge trend in the form of white jeans. Skinny and streamlined or ripped and relaxed, jeans of all types are showing up in crisp white hues. Pair them with a bright pop of colour or a nautical striped top for an easy daytime look. It’s only when I’ve worn a white cotton sundress for the first time that I know Summer has truly arrived. The lwd (little white dress) is fast becoming a year-round staple, rivaling the beloved lbd, so it’s well worth the investment. Paired with metallic accessories it makes for a chic, fail-proof evening look. Of course, a light glowing tan doesn’t hurt either. Whichever way you choose to rock it, make 2010 a white hot Summer.

It’s time to renew those gym memberships ladies! Our fashion radar has picked up on the season’s hottest trend: shorts. From micro styles at Stella McCartney, to briefs at Alexander Wang and YSL, and tap styles at Prada and Dior, the best in the business were all turning out their own versions, so get ready to show some leg and pick up a pair. A great alternative to skirts and dresses, shorts will give the same effect with the benefit of a low-maintenance, less fussy look, not to mention more mobility. I love silk tap and bloomer styles for a night out, and cargo or cuffed denim designs for running errands during the day. Shorts aren’t just casual wear anymore either. Choose a longer style a la Marc Jacobs, pair them with a blouse and blazer and voila! You’re work ready. The best accessory to this trend is, of course, a great set of gams, so work those thighs and rock this look!

In case you missed it, here’s the link to today’s spring trend segment on City TV’s Breakfast Television! My dvd recorder didn’t record so we’ll have to settle with this.

Look 1. Lingerie-inspired trend. What typically is worn in the bedroom is now worn as outwear. Keep it classy and layer under a blazer or cardy. Aritzia.

Look 2. Military trend. Utility elements are key for looking up-to-date. Love olives and khakis. Zara.

Look 3. Digital and techno prints mixed together. Twinkle dress from Lynn Steven in Gastown.

Look 4. Minimalism trend. Simple, clean and classic lines. Add thick black frames (from Bang On) and Oxford style shoes from Aldo. Club Monaco.

I wore: Vest and white tee from Club Monaco.
