Ahhh, spring. As the barren branches around Richmond give way to new blooms, so too do the local shops shed their winter coats in favor of lighter, barer fashions.

Blossoms are a theme this fashion season, as are brilliant colors, nautical stripes and black-and-white patterns. Flats are once again a wardrobe staple, only this time they come in floral fabrics and patent leather, and wide-leg pants are sitting side-by-side with the still-popular skinny pants.
