Spring 2012 Trend Alert: Color-Blocking!

Believe it or not, but winter is almost over. It may only be February, but retail stores have already started displaying new spring trends for 2012. One of these amazing trends that we're excited for here at krispyfringe is color-blocking. The S/S 2012 runways were filled with bold, solid-colored hues that draw attention to all the right places. Trending pieces can either have various colors either printed or sewn in, or you can put together two or three colors with coordinating accessories to make a statement. There are a million ways to make this look your own.

Need some inspiration? Here are some of our favorite looks for spring:

it's a dream wedding come true..

I plan on being sound asleep at 4am tomorrow morning, but many will be anxiously awake to watch the royal wedding. Can you believe it's almost here? It's probably going to be the biggest wedding since...well, since Princess Diana and Prince Charles wed in 1981. That may have not been the best marriage in the world- but it was a pretty amazing wedding. So following in family tradition, William and Kate's wedding should be just as spectacular, if not more. It's sort of funny how people all over the world are in awe for a wedding of two people that none of us even really know, but there's so much hype around it that we can't help but watch.

Prince Charles & Princess Diana.

All of this wedding excitement made me think of other fabulous weddings we've seen in the past. Though many of them didn't live happily ever after, and some of them never actually happened, their fairytale weddings will remain memorable forever.

Barbie & Ken- one of their many marriages, and this is one couple that will last forever. Not sure what's up with the lavender suit though.

Elvis & Priscilla Presley- Married at the Aladdin Hotel in Las Vegas on May 1, 1967. The beginning of many infamous Vegas weddings..
John Lennon & Yoko Ono- Knee socks and sneakers? Too cute for words.
Elizabeth Taylor & Conrad "Nicky" Hilton- Liz's first wedding, with many more to come.




General Hospital's Luke & Laura- Most fabulous soap opera wedding. Ever.

Heidi & Spencer Pratt, aka Speidi- They may be the most annoying couple ever, but their wedding was pretty close to perfect. Minus any scripted drama that may have followed them down the aisle.
Zack & Kelly, Saved By The Bell- Everyone always knew these two would tie the knot. Even if it wasn't until ratings fell and their show got cancelled.

 So Kate! If you decide to change your mind about your wedding dress at the last minute, then krispyfringe is here to the rescue! Okay, that's probably not going to happen, but if you- normal middle American woman, are looking for a gorgeous vintage wedding dress to wear on your big day then we can possibly help you too. Check out what we have available in our store and at Etsy.com right now:

1960s Vintage wedding gown, Ivory w/ all over lace. Sz XS or S. $275.
1960s Empire Waist Wedding Dress w/Ruffle Hem. Sz. S. $275


We also have a few more wedding dresses, as well as plenty of evening wear, spring hats, heels, and elegant gloves in stock in case the royal wedding inspires you for any spring/summer weddings you plan on attending soon.
