5 Spring Fashion Ideas: Spring Jacket

I initially wanted to call this the "5 Spring Must-Haves" however, I realized that my must-have might not necessarily be someone else's must have. So I am just calling this 5 Spring Fashion Ideas.

The first of this series are the Spring Jackets. Year after year we anticipate the coming of spring - finally it's time to pack away the winter jackets and out come the spring jackets. This year, there are three new styles that I'm really liking for Spring that I haven't already got.

The Parka

I just love this look - very downtown chic and very carefree. It's definitely on the casual side, so I wouldn't expect to wear these for a date or a night time event - more like for a trip to the mall or movies or maybe a leisure walk in the park.

The Updated Trench

A little bit of update on the classic trench can do so much. I love the more feminine feel of these trenches and these you can pair with more dressy outfits as well.

The Cape / Poncho

Now this is something more bold and fashionable, and maybe a bit trendy as well. Definitely not something I would wear on a cold rainy day. But I'm liking the simplicity of this style and it's just an easy throw on kind of piece. You can tell this is a really lazy comfortable style, but really it would pose the opposite effect. The poncho and really pump up an otherwise really boring outfit because of its form and design.

New Rakku Design: Iglu Shoes and Handbag Storage

Remember the Rakku shoe wheel? I was so amazed with it that I literally obsess and at one point have dreamt about them. I finally gave in and bought myself one and its been great with keeping my shoes organized - or in the least keep tons of my shoes in a very small contained space.

Rakku Shoe Wheel

Now, Rakku is back with new organization genius! Behold the Iglu shoes and handbag storage.

 This is just a real genius. This system comprises of these individual cases that you can snap together to build into something that you can either hang in your closet, lay flat on shelves, or put on top of a wheel (can be bought from Rakku as well).

The cases are transparent so you can see into them. As you know - out of sight, out of mind! So this is perfect, you can see everything so you get more use out of your things.

These cases can expand or contract. So its good when you have some closet space - but not a lot of closet space. It'll contract to fit the size of the shoes or handbag to save more space.

They can be built and snapped vertically to be hanged or placed over the door

Or built horizontally so you can lay it flat on shelves or on top of a rolling stand.

The Iglu Shoes and Handbag system costs $52.00 and it will come with a set of six cases with the metal hangers - pretty hefty for me... BUUT then again, isn't this just awesome and can save so much space in your closet and de-clutter your floor, PLUS it looks pretty!

 This is the specification of the case

You can get these from Rakku's Website, or visit their site for some retailers that carry their products. 

Time for me to obsess about these and go back and forth whether to buy or not. I don't supposed they're going on sale during black friday?
