Top 20 Fashion Trends for Summer ...

1. A Blast of Bright Color - One of This Season's Most Favorite Fashion Trends

Whether you prefer coral or turquoise, this summer, the pastels have taken a second row, replaced by look-at-me brights, marvelous for mixing with other hot summer fashion trends of 2011: bright white and color-blocking!

All over catwalks and store shelves, these vivid hues are gracing everything from belts and blouses to skirts and shoes, so it’s easy to add this hot trend to your wardrobe!

And don't be afraid to mix these bold colors, you'll be surprised at how well bright green works with hot pink and purple and how coral looks fantastic with golden hues and bright blues.

Think Gucci ads for Spring-Summer 2011 and you will do no wrong.

2. Layers of Lace - One of the Sexiest Fashion Trends

There’s nothing quite as romantic and feminine as lace, and this season, it’s everywhere, from Dolce&Gabbana to Ralph Lauren.

Pick one stellar piece, like a blouse or a frilly skirt or even short flirty shorts and make it the focal point of a retro-inspired, frothy feminine outfit!

High waist will help to create an even more feminine look.

Some of the laced shorts and skirts have a bow, don't shy away from it thinking it will be too much.

It's just dramatic enough to make a fashion statement without being too much.

Throw on a pair of black cat eye sunglasses and a few long strings of pearls (nothing wrong with fake), and voila!

You are all ready to pull off this fabulous summer fashion trend!
