Glamour: The DOs and DON'Ts of Spring 2010 Fashion Trends
Glamour: The DOs and DONTs of Spring 2010 Fashion Trends
DO go head-to-toe indigo
From chambray button-downs to embellished skinny jeans, denim-inspired stuff has never looked so good! Try a navy blazer and jeans for a pulled-together look, but DON'T go denim-on-denim-unless you've got a Ph.D. from Pantone, the colors will be too hard to match up.

DO try out the new nude trend.
Spring's nude trend is all about wearing light pinks, beige and caramel colors-not about wearing your flesh-color shapewear tank as a going-out top. (Spanx should be felt, not seen!)
Thakoon, Spring 2010

DON'T forgot to keep things simple when wearing a feather skirt.
Hellooo, gorgeous! Ten bucks says you'll hear that greeting every time you walk into a room with a kicky little number like this on. When wearing a plume-accented skirt,
DO skip headbands or dangly earrings-one party-friendly item is all you need.

DON'T shelf the sparkly tops in the "for the fancy parties I go to once or twice a year" section of your closet.
Throw on a cardigan and wear one with a pair of basic shorts to make your Saturday-afternoon outfit a little more glam.
Prada, Spring 2010

DON'T overdo the novelty-print thing.
We like to smile as much as the next person (more, actually), but wearing a cutesy novelty print-like polka dots, shooting stars or Miu Miu's kitten print-from head to toe gets into crazy cat-lady territory, fast.
Miu Miu, Spring 2010
Glamour: The DOs and DONTs of Spring 2010 Fashion Trends
DO make tie-dye look sophisticated with non-boho accessories.
DON'T wear yours with Birkenstocks, friendship bracelets and denim cutoffs unless you're a camp counselor-or don't mind being mistaken for one. Instead, tone down the feel-good print's hippie vibe with a serious-looking accessory like a structured belt or oxford shoes.
Blumarine, spring 2010
Glamour: The DOs and DONTs of Spring 2010 Fashion Trends
DO liven up your wardrobe with a high-impact pattern.
Bright florals are always hip, but this year's batch is especially bold. Just DON'T OD on the fierce factor with other wild accessories. Keep it simple by skipping the jewelry and wearing with chic black shoes.
DKNY, Spring 2010
Glamour: The DOs and DONTs of Spring 2010 Fashion Trends
DO have a sense of adventure this season.
Go ahead and test-drive spring's safari-inspired pieces. But when you're wearing the tailored stuff out on the town, DON'T bring the binoculars, canteen and compass-save it for that family camping trip you keep trying to put off.
Alexander Wang, Spring 2010
Glamour: The DOs and DONTs of Spring 2010 Fashion Trends
DON'T stash those silver and gold pieces until date night!
Go ahead and wear 'em during the day: Spring's metallic skirts, shoes and blazers are dressy enough to spiff up basic tees and jeans-but tailored enough to keep you from looking like you're on the Walk of Shame.
Burberry, Spring 2010

I love Glamour. I love that there are people out there, like Glamour, trying to reverse this sickening anorexic/bulimic, emaciated, rail-thin, 6 feet tall and 105 pounds look.
HOWEVER, I don't understand why Glamour and others hopping on their bandwagon, feel the need to go to the "opposite extreme" with their models.
Don't get me wrong. I think that some people have a problem with high metabolisms or whatever, and they can't help looking skinny/underweight when they're trying to be healthy. Likewise, some people can't help having some extra pounds/curves even when they try to eat healthily and exercise.
What I don't understand..... is WHY the fashion industry and the magazines can't simply depict women of the IN-BETWEEN (i.e. HEALTHY) size??? Underweight is unhealthy, overweight is unhealthy, so why not show women that are in-between???
I know I am short in height - 5 ft. 3 in., but my weight is healthy. 112 lb. Some of that weight is from muscle! A nearly 6 foot model should not weigh the same as I do.
I am also peeved by people who are saying that "the average woman is a size 10" or "the average woman is a size 14." Or whatever. The average means to take ALL WOMEN - the underweight, the normal weight, and the overweight, and then group them all together, and divide the weights by the total number of weights, then you have an average weight. Well, that number, unfortunately, is SKEWED by the vast number of overweight and obese women. It may be "average" or it may be more "normal" for women to be overweight or obese, but I have to admit that although women of those sizes want to see models in those sizes.... I do not think those should be the "normal" sizes depicted. I'm not saying they shouldn't be shown at all, I'm saying that more HEALTHY (not underweight, not overweight) should be what is "normal" to be shown in magazines.
We should be advertising HEALTHY sizes (weights proportionate to height), not underweight or overweight.
