What is OFW coveting this spring? We’re glad you asked. This spring is all about ultra-feminine details, brights and fun prints. Here are some of our favorite trends and how to wear them:

Pleats- They are everywhere, but be careful this can add volume.

The basics, I air dry my hair and then pull it up in a messy bun and add a cute lightweight scarf as a headband. I'm super pale or a nice way to say it, I've got "porcelain" skin. Either way, my legs are far too white for me to be comfortable in shorts without a little...

Ladies, skin is in... snakeskin, that is! If you're not comfortable wearing a pair of snakeskin pants, like the BCBGMAXAZRIA ones pictured above, then try it on something simpler like a belt or clutch. The skin will add just the right touch to an outfit, without...

MTV rolled out the red carpet on Sunday, June 5th for the 2011 Movie Awards. It was a star studded event full of fashion, fun, and excitement.
