Ann Taylor Spring 2011 is Here!

It's the first day of spring! Now I'm just waiting until the weather gets warmer to enjoy wearing more skirts, dresses, peep-toe shoes and sandals.

I stopped by Ann Taylor's concept store on 149 Fifth Avenue, to check out the hot new trends for spring, with a focus on black and white, bronze, khaki, leopard prints and a pop of citrine (my newest favorite color this season)!

At the top of my must-have list is this Fringe Party Skirt, $158.

Navy is the new go-to color for spring, combined with white in a mix of textures, patterns and styles.
