Ebay Spring Trend - Sheer cover

Show some skin! Sheer fabrics are another big trend this spring and were seen on many runways including (from left to right) Chanel, Jil Sander, Derek Lam and Fendi.

While it may seem like an intimidating look to adopt for some, the sheer trend is all about being subtly seductive but still keeping it classy. Choose an item that will hint at your best features such as a blouse with sheer sleeves to bring the focus to your arms or a skirt with a sheer hem to show off your great legs. Be careful not to reveal too much or your outfit may leave you looking like less of a fashionista and more like a lady of the night.

You can use sheer fabrics as a cover up over another garment, for example, wear a sheer patterned dress or skirt over a plain one for delicate but alluring look.

Tap into this trend with the items I found below.

Ebay Spring Trend - Flower with love

Floral print for spring is as cliche as it gets but this season, it's still as hot as ever. The ubiquitous print was seen at various runways including (from left) Marc Jacobs, Oscar De La Renta, Stella McCartney and Ralph Lauren.

photos courtesy style.com

Florals can get a bit tricky as too much can get a bit overwhelming, but if kept at a reasonable level, they can be pretty and fun. They can also be a great mix of sexy and playful on dresses that show a little skin. This print is very versatile as it can be done in many ways, on many different types of clothing so you're bound to find something for yourself.

Below are some great floral print items I came across.

AMAZINGLY gorgeous ISSA LONDON silk faux-wrap dress!!!

The size tag was removed but this is a US size 6 (of course, pls. see measurements to be sure of fit).

Purchased from Neiman Marcus for $555.00 (it's so current that it's still on NM's web-site at full-price). If you've been eyeing this dress online or in store, here's your chance to snag it for so much less than retail!!! We're always SO excited to list Issa London items because there's always SOOO much to say about them! They're like pieces of wearable art, the silk material always flows and fits beautifully and the prints are so vibrant. SOOO obviously ISSA LONDON and SOOO obviously expensive, no one can miss that! =) We loooove the cap sleeves, v-neck, sash and gorrrrgeous print! Even the little "Issas" here and there are darling! Truly such a beautiful spring into summer dress!!! LOOOOOOVE ISSA LONDON! =)

Zipper in the back.

In EXCELLENT, gently worn condition. This amazing dress comes to us from a woman that buys A LOT every month and barely (if at all) wears her items. Lucky her! Now lucky you! =)

Measures approx. 16.5 inches from underarm to underarm and 37.25 inches from top of shoulder to bottom of dress.

note: actual material/print may vary a little if one compares it directly to the first picture but Issa designs generally have some slight variation and do not match exactly in terms of where the print is situated.
