Are you a mod or a rocker?
Few people I encounter are more qualified to talk about trends than
Chelsea Perryman. As visual manager at a major clothing retailer, she's
responsible for leading a team of merchandisers who style mannequins and
create eye-catching in-store displays. With spring on the horizon,
"denim is back and so are the 70s, satin neck scarves, and lots of
suede. There's also a very feminine Romantic-era trend coming back in,
with loose silhouettes and soft lace," Perryman says. "For me, the
classic clean-cut mod look will continue. Razor-sharp bangs and a
powerful shade of lipstick, she says, are "a winner every time."
