As spring settles in, especially in the southern part of the United States, the temperatures are rising, making it the perfect time to transition your wardrobe to warm-weather attire. Are you the kind of girl who often opts for a simple T-shirt paired with classic denim shorts, completing the look with a random selection of shoes? While there’s nothing wrong with a laid-back style, many more wonderful silhouettes, styles, and textiles exist to explore. 

Discover an array of stylish and contemporary pieces at your nearest Melrose store that will elevate your look without breaking the bank. This week, we're excited to shine a spotlight on fresh, fashion-forward outfits you can wear throughout the day, whether heading to brunch with friends, enjoying a casual afternoon outing, or gearing up for a fun-filled evening. From vibrant dresses to chic separates, a world of possibilities awaits you that will take your spring wardrobe to the next level.

The fashion industry is dynamic and ever-changing, with trends constantly shifting and evolving. While some styles come and go quickly, others have the power to endure for decades. Recently, we have seen a resurgence of fashion trends from the 70s, with flared pants, bold prints, and platform shoes making a comeback. However, the appeal of vintage fashion doesn't stop there. In the current fashion landscape, there is a growing interest in the fashion of the 1960s, with crochet clothing proving to be one of the most in-demand items for the upcoming spring season. This trend is expected to continue well into the summer of 2024, with many designers and retailers incorporating crochet garments into their collections. 

At Melrose, we have grown a small crochet clothing collection with varieties showcasing dresses, two-piece sets, and tops. Some pieces are more simplistic in pattern and design than others. This week, we want to share a few of our crochet pieces for juniors, ladies' extended sizes, and women's shoes while educating more about the crochet trend and its role in culture from the past to the present. 

When the average person thinks about Mother's Day, we picture a biological mom that brought us into the world; but that's not exactly everyone's reality. Think about specific circumstances; relatives or non-blood families might adopt some; some of us may have never had a mother due to a passing or an estranged relationship. What we do have in our lives are women who raised us. These women could be our grandmas, aunts, sisters, or family that chose us; a more accurate outlook and mantra to follow regarding family is that family is what we make it. This Mother's Day, honor your mom or the female role models who were there to act as a mother for you. My Melrose and Melrose Family Fashions take this time to celebrate these fantastic women by showing outfits that highlight female grace and beauty.

"Chill time" doesn't have a dedicated date on the calendar. Instead, we all find ways to have a good time and escape from our routines. With the weather warming up, fun and exciting events start to pop up, like Coachella in California, Lolapalooza in Chicago, Fiesta in the My Melrose headquarters city of San Antonio, Texas, and so much more. This week, we want to talk about festival fashion derived from the mainly bohemian style and more vibrant and colorful inspirations for events like Fiesta. 

Variety is the My Melrose game, and we're here today to serve up new items to add to different parts of your lifestyle, from beauty, accessories, and a surprise pair of shoes. Some might be surprising and potentially inspiring. We've got some suggestions for wearing or using our new styles below.
