Want to get a head start on wardrobe shopping for next season? It’s time you starting thinking about psychedelic patterns and bell bottomed trousers. If you haven’t already noticed, high end designers are pimping the Bohemian chic look for Spring 2011. Once the weather gets warmer we’re going to see a lot of hippie happy fashion – right down to swim trunks, with some rural twists. Here are some higher end retro looks to add to your collection that we could not resist: |

Retro Prints: This Trina Turk mod mix, in avocado and pure pink, is reminiscent of the 60’s. Best for a night on the town, the belted dress contrasts two of Trina’s signature graphic prints for an eye-catching effect. The A-line shift and airy flared long sleeves, along with the hanging scooped neckline, are sure to give off a flirty but not floozy vibe. Retails at: $328.00 |

Long Floral Prints: In the mood for romance? It’s time you try expressing the softer side of you in flowers! This strapless ruffle dress by Haute Hippie comes in a luxurious floral print that’s subtly sassy. Constructed in delicate Italian silk, in the must-have length of the season, this airy print is a garden party classic. Available for $495 at Saks 5th Avenue. |

White Eyelet Dresses: This prairie-style dress by Marc Jacobs will make a sweet impression and can be dressed up or down depending on your mood. The eyelet frock is vintage-inspired, with a scalloped V neckline and softly gathered hem, and is a must have for outdoor dates and other daytime events. Available too at Saks 5th Avenue for $298. |

Fringed Bags: Our favorite handbag impressionista, Rebecca Minkoff, is back this season delivering some Southwestern sass. Unleash the inner cowgirl in you with this hippy chic tasseled Sling Slouch, available in black or brown, at RebeccaMinkoff.com for $425 |

Clogs: A chunky and oh so comfy treat for your feet, these Tori Burch clogs pair up perfectly with boyfriend jeans, especially on weekends. An artsy spin on the 70’s style clunker, this one comes in chocolaty brown woven leather with classic golden stud trim. Available at Neiman Marcus for $325. |

Bell Bottom Trousers: Move over skinny jeans because bell bottoms are big again! And this season’s flared trousers come in more than just denim, so they are perfect to wear to work or for play. Our favorite selection is at Bebe.com, including this black Annabelle High Waist Flare Pant which retails for $129 online. |
