Last week we focused on the element of surprise green brings to Spring’s freshest wardrobes. The season’s other chic color trend is to super-charge those brighter fashions with a fab white accessory. Be it by way of your shoes, sunglasses, wide belts or what handbag you choose to tote around (just make it super-sized this year). From the toes on up we’re madly in love with these white hot trots from Jimmy Choo, Giuseppe Zanotti, and Charles David (shown). In the Handbag department some of our favorites include Fendi’s Zucca nylon tote, this classic satchel by Tod’s and Temma Dahan’s Charlize bag. These gorgeous belts from Linea Pelle, Prada and Sandy Duftler cinch it all up in style. What started all the white hot madness? That of course was when Nicole Richie was spotted about town looking bold and brilliant with her big white shades. Those that’ll fit your inner diva perfectly include Juicy Couture’s Jackie glasses, these large frames from Marc Jacobs, Coach’s Samantha and Roxy’s Pop. Now just imagine how beautifully these white accessories will mix with your new green for Spring threads.

Pink is always classically fresh for spring, but it’s so last year. This season’s color to have in your closet is green. Stand on any sidewalk amongst Manhattan’s or LA’s most fashionable locations and you’ll see what we mean. And it doesn’t hurt that St. Patrick’s Day is on our heels. Green adds an element of surprise, looks great with most complexions and mixes fabulously with all the pink you bought in ‘05. So many choices, sometimes with not so much green to spend. Our favorite green splashes include this crochet tank by Design History at 40% off. Tara Jarmon wins the award for spring’s most beautiful turquoise green silk beaded skirt. To instantly spice up your uniform black work attire, consider the possibilities Susana Monaco’s satin trim blazer will bring you. Keeping up with this year’s bigger is better trend is Hype’s Bonanza shoulder bag. For a preppie carry all that’ll take you straight through August, Prada’s ‘Paglia+Vit. Daino’ satchel is divine. We’re madly in love with both the look and savings of Gucci’s green tinted bit sunglasses. And Prada’s Sea Horse Wedge sandals are an instant shoe-in at 20% off retail, that is, if you can pull yourself from admiring their amazing artistry.
