Stripes, and particularly polka dots, got so big this year that it was unclear if they make make it through another few seasons.
If one does take heed of the runway, however, it shows that they are here to stay through 2014! Stripes are going to be integral to the season’s look. while polka dots, still a popular choice, may not be as prevalent as it was this season, but don’t worry – you’re still on-trend with them. Below are some of my favorite examples of the trend, and catch up on the others from NYFW Spring 2014, including the colors orange, black and white, pastels, paint, and embroidery & ethnic prints.

Tommy Hilfiger
The use of orange in sportswear seems like a sensible, sporty shade easy to execute, seen here at Tommy Hilfiger paired with a bit of heel and it’s close cousin, vibrant red.
