Trend Pick of the day: Tibi Pleated Dress with Beading Price: $880.00 - buy online from Shopbop
The pleated trend is a sharp new season look for day, night, office, casual and everything in between! And while you might think it's normally reserved for skirts, these pleats come in all shapes and sizes.. from the traditional razor sharp accordion style, wider pleats found on tops and dresses, and even pleated sleeves that are ladylike and boho at the same time.
When it comes to colours, you can choose bright and vibrant shades like yellow and orange, or go for neutrals like blush and cream. And this is also a great way to up your fashionista quotient by combining two trends in one look - how about a colour block dress with Read more: Pleats Fashion Trend 2012: Maxi dresses, blouses, mini skirts & more shopping the trend

Trend Pick of the day: Raquel Allegra Tie Dyed Cotton Blend Jersey Dress Price: $225.00 - buy online from Net A Porter
Our coverage of Spring Fashion Trends has been focused on bright colours, as well as an assortment of interesting prints and textures - the tie-dyed trend stays on topic, as the colours can be bright (if you want) and it's also an interesting print. It's casual and fun, and the fact that boho chic never goes out of style makes it a must-have this season. Tie-dye also makes the ultimate 70s statement, but you don't have to explore your inner flower child here, this is still an urban trend.
Cotton summer separates courtesy of C&C California & Young Fabulous & Broke will kick-start your tie-dyed look immediately - paired with jeans or shorts. Or how about new season skinny jeans in terrific tie-dye (or "cloud") prints - a personal favourite here is Read more: Tie-Dyed Trend 2012: Raquel Allegra, J Brand, Isabel Marant & more shopping the trend!

Trend Pick of the day: Diane Von Furstenberg Denisha Hooded Printed Jersey Playsuit Price: $295.00 - buy online from Net A Porter
This trend goes by a few names - playsuit, romper, or even jumpsuit - call it what you will, it has become one of the must-have items this summer! Fashionistas have embraced playsuits for a while now, but with a new season full of colours, prints, and neutrals in an assortment of styles, there really is something for everyone now.
This playsuit trend is less casual, and a little more formal - you can even wear some of these to the office, as it definitely is an urban trend trend (think outside the beach!). If you have a chic silk playsuit, a sharp boyfriend blazer will make it very office appropriate (just watch the length, of course). Shapes and styles are quite simple this season, without too much fuss, but you can still Read more: Playsuit Trend for 2012: Soft neutral shades, prints & bold colors - for day and night!
