Spring Trend: It's all about the boyfriend...

or your pretend boyfriend if you don't have one. The "borrowed from your boyfriend" look has been popular for a while and the trend is going strong.

1) The Blazer
Aqua Boyfriend Jacket with Stripe Cuffs ($88)
Great over dresses and with jeans.... a simple black blazer adds a nice finishing touch to any outfit.

2) The Boyfriend Jean
7 for All Mankind Vintage Stretch Boot Cut
($189)
I was originally not a fan of this look, but I still love the idea of a more casual jean. So I decided to modify the rolled up jeans with a pair of distressed, more loose fitting denim. You get the same idea but a more flattering fit since the jeans do not cut off your legs.

3) The White T-Shirt
Hanes Tagless V-Neck T-Shirts 5-Pack ($11)
Lightweight and easy, a white t-shirt is essential in any closet. Wear under a cardigan with a pair of jeans for a comfy, everyday outfit.

4) The Oversized Watch
Michael Kors Chronograph Sports Watch ($225)
My favorite boyfriend trend of them all. The man's watch is not new but more like a modern classic. I always get compliments on mine from Michael Kors, who makes great watches.
