So I was in the process of figuring out my next move for this spring, because of course I am done with winter already. So in my travels I came across the 10 biggest trends of spring/summer 2011. I will disclose then tell you which trend Mr. Marc will own come spring season.

1) Carrot Pants: Like harem pants, but not as baggy. I would prefer you go with a pant with a crotch that isn't at maximum droop. A true style junkie will know the difference. (This trend isn't for everyone)

2) Beige: One of the biggest color palettes of the season. The more more of this color the better. But remember if this is a color that washes you out try pieces (pants, t-shirts, shoes) and mix them with other colors of the season such as citrus, denim, navy or a darker green. (Trend approved)

3) Citrus: Also another color that made it big this season... Citrus would be your Lemons, Limes, and Oranges. I'm personally a fan of color. Its fun to play around with and cute when done appropriately. (Trend approved)

4) Baggy Tees) Its not your average lounge shirt... The over-sized tee is making its way into a fashionable closets near you. Burnout, colorblock, v-neck or crew neck, as long as it looks like a over-sized tee and not a shirt dress, you are good to go. My huskier guys this is more so for gentlemen of a small to medium built. depending it can come off a little feminine. (This trend isn't for everyone)

5) Mid-thigh Shorts: Its all about the perfect pair of shorts. Not too tight, not to baggy, just the right cut, just the right length. Do this right and you'll be all the rave. Do this wrong and you'll be all the gossip. And if you watch Gossip Girl, you know to be gossiped about is bad. Shorter guys this would be a nice trend for you. (This trend isn't for everyone)

6) Military: This trend is taking on a life of its own. Its becoming more of a staple than a fad. The military look has survived the last few years and a multitude of seasons. It doesn't look like it's going anywhere any time soon. Its one trend you can't go wrong with. (Trend approved, though a little tired of it)

7) Denim: All denim is here to stay as well. Mix and Matching denim is bigger than its ever been and I don't see it going anywhere. (Trend approved)

8) The Black Trench: Knee Length, double breasted, in all black. Sounds chic and dangerous at the same time. But a trench can make a short guy look even shorter so be careful. (This trend isn't for everyone)

9) Double-breasted suits: I encourage everyone to get one... That's All! (Trend approved)

10) Nautical: It makes its way to the trends trending topics every spring/summer. When you think of luxe, rich and lavish with a easiness that can be accomplished by virtually anyone, you think nautical. This seaside look is my favorite and the best part is, It's simple. (Trend approved)

And I figure you guessed that the Seaside look will once again be mine to obtain for the spring. It just makes me feel good, though I will be throwing the Beige look in there as well. I think I would look great in an all beige getup.

Happy shopping
