Black and white - classic yet trendy - gives an air ofsophistication in this sexy ensemble. The chunky-heel black suede shoes and black studded clutch add an edge.

Spring is (almost) here, which means it's time to shed the bulky layers and step into sunnier, whimsical styles. This season's trends will feature warm-weather staples, such as floral prints, and flirty silhouettes with bold twists, such as chunky accessories and bright colours. To prepare you for the warmer days ahead, we've rounded up three of spring's hottest, most fashion-forward trends from Tuscany Boutique that are sure to make a splash.

1. Monochrome chic

Black and white: One of the best and most universally flattering spring trends - so chic and classic. Being the ying and yang of fashion, there is no surprise that this colour duo stands the test of time being that it is the epitome of elegance and sophistication.

2. Pattern play

Living in the Caribbean allows us the flexibility of wearing bright colours in frolicking floral and tropical designs all year round. Thankfully, this season with so many trends having emphasis on colour, allows for recycling already owned spring/summer pieces.

Word of caution: Mixing prints is probably the most tricky of all the trends, be sure to exercise restraint with this trend by keeping the scale and hue of the prints similar.

3. Ladylike silhouettes or softer sides

Sorbet hues/chalky pastels: When attempting this trend, keep your jewellery and accessories minimal so they don't compete with the over all delicate look.
