Moving from the west to the east coast, the tulle skirt has steadily gained popularity over that past few years. Black and white versions came out on top, but were closely followed by red, pink and blue tulle. Offering a major does of femininity to your style, try wearing this skirt with a crop-top. If your midsection has you shying away from this option, tuck in a blouse in a floral print or solid. High-heels are ideal, but a pretty flat will work for those already blessed with natural height.

JOGGER PANTS
Concentrated mostly in the Southeast, jogger pants are taking street style by storm. Fashionistas are mixing them in a variety of combinations that are fun, stylish and bold. Although it may seem odd to wear a sport-inspired pant with heels, the resulting look is extremely chic!! Invest in a neutral pair to get the most from these simple pants, or opt for a leather pair for something a bit more sexy and rebellious.
