New York fashion week has come and gone, but its trends will last forever…or at least for the spring season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Whether you care about staying on top of the trends or not, we are all sucked into the rabbit hole of the aftermath of fashion weeks around the world. You may think you are being original when you buy 90\u2019s wear at the store, but the only reason it is being sold to begin with is because of the influence of these major designers. It\u2019s a never failing and everlasting marketing mastermind that has been constructed and tailored by the fashion industry.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So, since it\u2019s not going anywhere and we are never going to stop buying clothes why not embrace it? Here are the top trends from fashion week and a guide of how to take the runway and make it wearable. We all know, thanks to celebrities like Lady Gaga and Rhianna, sometimes runway outfits can be a little….out there so I’ve given you some ideas on how to transform them into your wardrobe.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

First things first, gone are the times of your jeans being the dreaded and uncomfortable wardrobe essential and welcome to the bold statement pant. Otherwise known as \u201cfancy pants\u201d quite literally, these are anything from jeans to embroidery, fringe, flare or even ruffles. On the runway, you may find sheer or even two different colored legs and if that is a little too far out of your comfort zone, stores like\u00a0<\/span>Anthropologie<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>and\u00a0<\/span>Madewell<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>have you covered with some spiced up basics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Moving on we have a personal favorite of mine…pastels. Who doesn\u2019t love a good color scheme and a color coordinated wardrobe? You may laugh now but when you tailor your wardrobe colors to complement each other your outfit possibilities multiply. On the runway, you may find head to toe one solid and baggy pastel ensemble but stores likeAritzia<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>offer a more refined and sleek look for everyday wear.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Next up we have bright bold and the way to tell when someone over edited their Instagram picture…saturated! This is a fun twist to include in your spring wardrobe and especially as we start itching toward those summer months and beach vacations. What better way to daydream about a tropical oasis then dressing like you\u2019re already on vacation? If all\u00a0<\/span>saturated<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>isn\u2019t your thing try bold tops with a basic pant or vice versa. If bright is your enemy but you want to stay #hip then opt for a colorful statement\u00a0<\/span>jewelry<\/a>piece instead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"FAshion \"saturated\" \"Saturated<\/p>\n

Finally, one of my personal favorites\u2014fringe! Fringe is the new black if you ask me. Now this one can be done in many ways. Wear it head to toe like the runway models or get a ~fringe-y~ bag or\u00a0accessories<\/a>. Either way you\u2019re going to look like the coolest kid on the block!<\/span><\/p>\n
