Springs hottest wardrobe add-ons courtesy of wish.list Boutique
Spring is in the air and as we brace ourselves for those April showers we also start to prep our wardrobes for the warmer weather. The 90's are back, and 90210 inspired looks are popping up everywhere. From denim galore to Easter egg hues paired with subtle shades, and floral prints, retro looks are being sported by all of our favourite celebs.

Most Vancouverites are scrounging their pennies post-Olympic festivities but there's no need to skimp out on sprucing up your spring wardrobe entirely. Wish.list boutique (located at 2811 West Broadway) is a favourite shop where locals not only stock up on staple pieces but can also load up on accessories.
Kathie and Alisa West Folk , the mother daughter power team at wish.list boutique opened their doors in 2009 and have been thriving ever since. Their loyal clientele and local shoppers trust their fashion expertise and seek out their advice.
Here are a few of their top picks for spring that will keep you on trend without breaking the bank:

1. Commando Invisible Floral Thong ($20) - Why confine your love for the latest florals to cutesy dresses and silken tops? Rock the pretty prints underneath!

2. Deux Lux Nude Clutch ($80) nudes are big and a clutch is the perfect way to show your style while the gold detailing gives the piece a bit of edge. This is ideal for the gal who wants to show off the trend without switching up her wardrobe pieces. Pair it with your best skinny jeans for a night out.

3. Hook Bracelets ($20) - celeb staple, these hook bracelets are trendy yet affordable, stack them on your arm in different colours for a 90's vibe

If you're feeling adventurous, you can always splurge on a handbag, a jewelry statement piece or go wild with the some pastel eye palettes courtesy of LA based make-up artist Julie Hewett.

Your friends are bound to start asking where you're shopping faster than you can say Brenda Walsh would love that bag'.
