Spring is in the air, and that means it's time to add some romance to your wardrobe, and it begins with styles that are flirty and feminine. Christine Cruz has this week's Fashion Forward.

Spring is in the air, and that means it's time to add some romance to your wardrobe, and it begins with styles that are flirty and feminine. Christine Cruz has this week's Fashion Forward.

WSVN -- Love is in the air, and that loving feeling can be incorporated right into your wardrobe.

At Savvy Girl Boutique in Miami the romantic look looks good on just about anyone.

Kristy Ferradas, Savvy Girl Boutique: "Romantic is a very big trend for spring. It's something everyone could wear, no matter what their body type, and it's just something very flattering and girly and feminine."

You'll feel flirty in this babydoll dress by Fumble and Foe in teal and nude.

Cupid strikes in a mauve dress with a handbeaded neckline.

Or slip on a white grecian-inspired dress complete with a big trend for spring ... draping!

Kristy Ferradas: "Draping is huge for dresses, it's something that flatters every woman's body, and it's something a lot of designers are using for spring."

If dresses aren't your thing, you can go romantic in a strapless silk blouse with lace detail over a pair of tailored trousers. This chantilly scarf can be worn as a headband for an extra-feminine touch.

 

Team up white demin sailor pants with a ruffle-sleeved blouse.

A white crocheted top is always a good choice with dark jeans. You can even try this trend with shorts.

Kristy Ferradas: "So it's easy to dress up shorts for spring with all these beautiful, fluttery loose-flowing tops, then you can just do it with a pair of denim shorts."

At So-Mi in Aventura, the romantic look is in full bloom.

Miriam Greenberg, So-Mi Boutique: "You can see a lot of the pink colors coming in, yellow, a lot of roses."

You'll feel fresh as a flower in a red silk dress with chiffon roses at the hem, or try this sunny yellow dress by Voom with a rose petal at the shoulder.

Bubble dresses are still big, like this satin strapless one in rose and black.

A black jersey bubble dress takes on a different look with a satin band tied in the back.

Miriam Greenberg: "The bubble dress is also a good fit for everyone. It fits well to the body."

High-waisted pants will also have a slimming effect. Dress them up or down with a tank top and gold jewelry.

Jeans look great with a strapless eyelet top in white, or really go romantic in a silk top with fuchsia flowers.

Miriam Greenberg: "It fits nice to the shoulders, hangs nicely. You can dress it up or down. You can put that top with little shorts. You can put that top with jeans."

The idea for any hot trend for spring? Use only one dominate piece. Pair a flowy top with tailored pants or high-waisted pants with a simple tank.
