Prints Charming

Prints can make or break an outfit. There's a lot to consider. For example, make sure your print is age-appropriate. Don't wear "Hello Kitty" prints if you're over 30, unless you're working at a children's camp. Also keep in mind that if your body shape is an "apple," tone down the top, and if you're a "pear," tone down the bottom. It's all about proportion.

Regardless of the limitations, prints are fun and fabulous. Especially if they're mixed with solids and styled with the right shoes and accessories.

A dark blazer with a print top matched with jeans or slacks is a classic look that never goes out of style. You can also match a print dress with a casual jean jacket or thin cardigan.

Personalize your wardrobe with prints (skirts, tops, scarves, dresses) in a variety of colors and textures. Be creative, be daring, but most of all, have fun!

Nailing It

So what's the best nail color for Spring? Answer? Any color you like! Choose among pastels (pinks, peaches, roses and mauves) bolds (yellow, red, blue, orange, green) or anything in between (sienna, silver, black and white).

If you don't want to paint your own nails, try nail kits with pre-painted designs (polka dots, paisley swirls, flower petals -- even skulls and crossbones).

And don't forget the toes! Strappy sandals and peep-toe heels display your toe art at its best.

So get your favorite colors and start painting!
