Ladies, if you want to emerge from your winter shell looking hotter than ever, then listen up! 2011 brings a new year accompanied by fashion trends designed to blow your socks off- literally! From chique designer clothes to everyday casual wear, clothing designers are now blasting off to a new generation of style, with fashions to compliment a wide range of body figures.

Remember your jeggings from 2010? You should, because virtually everyone, tween to woman, has a pair sitting in her closet. The ’80′s style skinny jean leggings are being replaced with a more modern look. This year, what’s hot on a cool summer night is the wide leg or flare leg denim jean. You don’t need an hourglass figure to look great in a pair of flare leg jeans, and you can pair it with a cute tee or tank to complete your casual look. Also, choose your jeans to fall a little higher on the waistline than last year’s low-rise selection. A higher waistline makes you appear taller and thinner, and you won’t have to worry about offending anyone by showing them something they do not want to see!

Going out? Grab some sandals and pair them with a full-length skirt. Mini skirts from 2010 are being phased out to introduce these longer eye-catchers. Colorful skirts that fall to mid-calf are comfortable, affordable, and compliment any figure. Accessorize with a great handbag and a pair of cateye sunglasses and you’re sure to turn heads! But be careful not to overdo it; too much flare can be standoffish and gaudy. If you feel the need to improve your ensemble by coating on accessories, you probably need more color in your attire. A layered necklace and dangling earrings will do just fine.

We will also see a decrease of bangles this year. The large bracelets, typically bright metal or plastic, were layered on millions of arms in 2010 but are soon to be a thing of the past. A stylish slim bracelet or bracelet watch can be paired with any outfit, and it is not noisy or bothersome to wear.

The fashion trends for 2011 are geared towards comfort and style for every figure, and can be worn with confidence and class. Whether running to the bank or having a night out on the town with the girls, have fun with it and go in syle!
