Trendspotting: Slick Spring Leather

After seeing all the sleek leather pieces on the Spring '13 runways, it was pretty easy to forget which season we were in.

After seeing all the sleek leather pieces on the Spring '13 runways, it was pretty easy to forget which season we were in. Brands like Fendi, Marni, and more sent chic, colorful leather looks down the catwalk, skillfully dispelling the myth that leather is only appropriate for cooler weather. The secret seems to be a simple switch of the color palette, as well as pairing your bright leather pieces with lightweight fabrics like cotton, crepe, and linen. If you needed more proof that this trend does indeed work (and work well), just take a cue from eternally stylish celebrities like Diane Kruger, Solange Knowles, and Ashlee Simpson, who effortlessly showed how powerful colored leather can be. Whether sexy and sophisticated like Diane's fire-engine red Vanessa Bruno pencil skirt, cool and laid-back like Solange's colorblocked Clover Canyon ensemble, or sweet and Spring-ready like Ashlee's pastel blue number, this is one trend we're looking forward to trying in just about every iteration this season.

Solange Knowles Shows Us How to Wear Printed Shorts (the Right Way!)

Last season might have been all about print-on-print-on-print, but Spring's latest leans toward a more subtle way of styling your bold patterns.

Last season might have been all about print-on-print-on-print, but Spring's latest leans toward a more subtle way of styling your bold patterns. At the Diesel and Edun Studio Africa party in LA, brand ambassador Solange Knowles showed us how to style printed shorts (one of our seasonal must haves) for a look that's high on impact, but not over the top. The key to getting this trend right is finding the perfect pair of statement shorts — we suggest a pair that's not too tight and not too short — and pairing it with minimal accompaniments. Solange's abstract-print cuffed Edun shorts pop against her white Theyskens' Theory sheer-sleeve blouse, while gold metallic sandals add just the right amount of shine to her party look. For added pop, Solange polished off her ensemble with a modern Lucite CC Skye clutch ($295) and gold rings. Easy, right? Shop our editors' selection of printed shorts, then get to styling!
