The Color of The Year: Coral

Shades of coral are popping up everywhere this spring. This flirty, fun and feminine color is being dubbed the color of the year. It was even seen all over the runways during Fall 2011 Fashion Week!

Tan or not…. brunette or blonde…..  This hue will make you shine all season long.  Check out a few of our favorite coral items available at Hand In Pocket now below along with tips on how to style each piece.

Add a cream belt from Elise M or wear the MM Couture Coral Kiss Dress- Coral $78 flowy and free with beige peep toe sling backs and turquoise accessories. This dress is perfect for a wedding, shower, graduation, or easter.

Pair the Aryn K Silk Tank with Multi Color Print $86  with cuffed denim shorts like the Joes below and a brown wedge to complete a sassy outfit perfect for dinner and drinks on the patio of your favorite restaurant.

Maxi dresses are perfect for night you do not want to wear heels! Pair the Karlie Aztec Print Maxi Dress $108  with your Dolce Vita sandals (coming soon to HIP) and stack on gold bangles for a seductive bohemian look that suites multiple occasions.

For spring and summer 2010 the top denim trend I believe everyone should follow are cuffed jeans. Pegging or rolling your jeans is classic and can truly contribute to your outfit if you follow a few HIP tips. First, make sure to wear stunning shoes when you roll your jeans because they become the center of attention. Second you need to make sure you keep proportions in control. J Brand recommends three inchs from the top of your ankle but if you are taller you may want your cuff a bit higher.

This trend is great too if your jeans are always too long when you first buy them. It is also saves you some time and frustration when deciding whether to hem your jeans for flats or heels because pegging allows you to wear them with both.

Check out the cuffed jean styles currently available at Hand In Pocket above.
