Sequins are back right in time for the start of fall and slowly into the holiday season. It is so easy to make this trendy junior fashion look amazing but on the same hand, they can turn ugly and fast. Here are some ways to keep your sequins looking amazing.

Keeping your sequined items to a minimum will show off the item without being overwhelming.

Just because sequins are now on expensive brands such as Lanvin, Marc Jacobs and Alice + Olivia does not mean that you have to break your bank to be fashion forward. You can be a fashionista on a budget by shopping at Fashion 21, Victoria Secret or your local wholesale fashion boutique.

Enter: One shoulder trend. This trendy junior fashion look really took off in 2007 and has not yet left. Fashion Spot LA hopes it never does.

One shoulder dresses are making their way to runways around the world in bright and bold solid colors. The length can differ depending on what event you are wearing it to. The one shoulder dress is very sexy in the most subtle of ways. According to Fashionishing.com, “Shoulders are sexy. More mysterious than cleavage and more elegant than legs; shoulders remind us of the delicacy and vulnerability of the neck.” Wearing a one shoulder dress can bring up questions on what bra selection to choose. The most common is the strapless; you can find a strapless bra in almost any brand that you buy your bras in.
With the one shoulder strap, you might think you will lose some flair to a dress but that is not always the case. A lot of times the one shoulder that is available is spruced up with a large flower accent or a beaded trim that will be the envy of most women. Like I mentioned above, you will see these new one shoulder dresses in solid colors but more and more you will start to see prints popping up in the one shoulder world and in wholesale clothing for boutiques.
One shoulder does not end at dresses; they are making a wave in the top world and slowly even into swim suits. One shoulder swim suits are being made by Marios Schwab, Hervé Ledger and many others that you can find in department stores, wholesale fashion boutique stores or five star resorts all over the world.

It is a constant struggle that many women (and men) have all year round and finally we can get some answers. When is the right time of the year to wear linen?
It is one of the nicest, yet complicated fabrics in the wholesale fashion apparel world. The biggest factor to decide when it’s right for you to wear linen is the climate in your area. Linen is a fabulous fabric to have in your closet, unfortunately it can and will wrinkle easily. So it is a big no-no to wear linen in humidity. So for all of you in the Midwest and south who want to wear it in the heart of summer, it may be a no go. However, linen can be worn through out Arizona, California and New Mexico year round due to the low humidity in these areas.
A good tip to keep in mind when buying and wearing linen is that solids usually look the best. Wearing printed linen may look too busy and take away from the beauty of the piece you’re wearing.
While traveling with linen there are some major points to keep in mind. Linen will wrinkle so you need to pack your clothes with care. To keep linen as wrinkle free as possible stuff each arm and leg hole with tissue paper and cover each piece with a plastic dry cleaner bag. The linen items should be the last items to be in your suitcase, that way they will have less time to wrinkle.
Caring for your linens at home or on vacation can be done very easily. The easiest way to go about it is to bring it to the dry cleaners or have your concierge do it for you. Yes, it may cost you a little but it will keep your clothes lasting. Some of your linen pieces might have care instructions that actually allow you to wash them at home, so check the label before you make your purchase.
Fashion Spot LA catalogs are constantly offering amazing linen pieces in rompers, tunics and rollover wait pants in wholesale clothing for boutique items. Keep a nice selection of linen in your wholesale fashion boutique to satisfy any woman (or mans) needs.

Slub is the new way to dress. Slub? That seems like an animal you would see in a rainforest… well don’t be surprised to start hearing that term around town. Slub is a new up and coming fabric from the same family as wool which is slightly twisted for spinning. Slub is seen mostly in solids in large tunic tops that can paired with leggings and is considered great wholesale clothing for boutiques. A good slub top can also be printed with large striped and have large arm holes to make it a light and fun summer tunic top.
The interesting thing about slub is that at first it was considered to be a problem, but look at it now, it is the latest trendy junior fashion. Slub was first used to make upholstery for furniture or car seats and soon manufactures learned that the fabric was a huge liability and needed to be used for softer materials, such as table linens, window treatments and of course apparel. Slub is visually appealing, hence why it is great to use for the variety of uses stated above.
Slubbed silk came to fruition over time as it slowly became an alternative to other yarns. Slubbed silk contains high amounts rove which gives slubbed silk its unique texture and look. Many buyers like the ones at Fashion Spot LA have an eye for this new slub fabric made into tunic tops, dresses and leggings. Once a person has a worn their first slub item they might never go back to another fabric due to the softness and texture. Slub items can be found in a wholesale fashion boutique in your town and are highly recommended by any one in the fashion industry. Find your new slub favorite ASAP to feel amazing in your outfit.

As an off price apparel buyer, I see not only the greatest new trends in clothes but also in accessories, including sunglasses. Sunglasses have jumped from being just a protector of the eye to a real state of your own personality and fashion style. Sunglasses are literally your windows to the world; make sure that they fit who you are above all else.
Many designers are realizing that the sun and UV rays are only getting stronger and are incorporating that into their designs. Ray Ban, for example has made majority of their sunglasses polarized. Polarized sunglasses are amazing and make a world of difference for your eyes. Polarized technology block the UV rays and protect your retinas, which everyone needs and should want.
This new technology that is sprouting from designers all over will not necessarily come at a cost. Other than Ray Ban, Maui Jim, and Oakley are some of the most prominent brands that have started polarizing all of their trendy sunglass styles. Besides all of the protection, round lenses are a great trendy junior fashion that is making its way into the world. Aviators left their mark in the 70’s and really has not left us yet. Every year designers redo the traditional design of the aviator and amp it up for the year to come. A good bet that a wholesale fashion boutique buyer could make is that in any group of trendy juniors at least half of them will have a pair or two of aviators.
You do not need the most expensive pair or the best designer to be in style this year. Many wholesale clothing boutiques across the world carry inexpensive sunglasses that can complete any outfit. If you are going for that designer, look, and price, the internet is the best way to do your shopping for such an accessory. You can usually find a coupon for the latest sunglass from many different designers.
When looking for the right of sunglasses remember it’s not only the shape that matters but the amount of protection you wear. Visit your local wholesale clothing for boutiques shop to find your perfect pair.

After attending dozens of inspiring fashion shows at New York’s Fashion Week, I’m very thankful I’ve learned to take careful notes. So many designers are putting their best foot forward for fall 2010; it’s hard to keep track of all the exciting future trends in contemporary apparel.
Here are a few of my favorites in RTW contemporary wholesale apparel:
* Velvet showed up in some surprisingly soft yet edgy ways, both in floor-length gowns by Nanette LePore and in bright, flirty mini-dresses by Zac Posen. Velvet even showed up in tailored pants and vests by Charlotte Ronson, and on platform boots by the ever-urban Alexander Wang.
* Wang also lined up some rugby striped looks with his sporty collections, and the same overt stripes were seen in dressed up, lacy cardigans by Charlotte Tarantola. Could this tomboy trend become an influence on junior fashion apparel as well?
* Another designer that captured my attention was Jason Wu, and his new collection of great cashmere sweaters and flannel blazers for Tse. Of all the wintry ensembles on this runway, my favorite was Wu’s sensational fox fur coat. Pair this with one of his sexy chiffon dresses and the textures can overwhelm the senses.
* The Vera Wang fall collection was inspired by the mystery and moodiness of the “film noir” genre, a highly seductive aesthetic that included models coiffed like sexy film stars of yesteryear. Most of the girls were dressed in black, with collars spilling into abundant sleeves, gorgeous sparkling jewelry and dollops of fur worthy of any “femme fatale”. Closely aligned with the curve of the body, Vera Wang created an interesting juxtaposition of fluffy flourishes against a form-fitting silhouette.
The contemporary apparel seen at Fashion Week was surprisingly carefree and decadent, despite the fashion community’s nervousness about consumer spending patterns. Excitement generated during this wintry week will determine which styles are chosen by wholesale fashion boutique buyers around the world and from what I can tell, it looks like consumers are in for a treat this fall.
