Fashion at SHS

Kaitlyn Benjamin

SALEM — A new season brings new trends to the fashion world. Just because you may not have the hundreds to spend on the eclectic styles that this season holds, doesn't mean you have to go without. Here are just a few of the many trends of the 2008 winter season.

SKINNY JEANS: The days of flaring jeans are officially over. Try a pair of sophisticated skinny jeans that flatter your figure. Stores like Old navy and H&M; offer a variety of sizes and colors that match your sense of style.

GREY: This season, grey is definitely the new black. Whether it's a sweater or pants, grey is the 'in' color for the winter.

PEAT COATS: Put away those puffy marshmallow-like jackets. This season is about sophistication, and peat coats are a symbol of just that.

KNITS: If you're looking to stay warm this season, knit sweaters or even scarves are the way to go.

SEQUINS: Add a little shine in your life during this chilly time of the year, but remember not to go overboard; you don't want anyone to be blinded.
