Spring is just around the corner, Mafiettes! Weather allowing, it’s time to start thinking about wardrobe innovations to transition smoothly and fashionably into the new season.

According to The Skinny, floral and animal prints will come into play once more during this year’s spring season. Dakota Fanning wore a leopard-print dress for the December Teen Vogue, and a similar version of it is now available at Forever 21 in its resort collection.

Dear Chictopia,

Thank you so much for holding this wonderful conference on the merge of fashion and social media! I learned so much and am inspired to make my blog and my style bigger and better in 2010. (Mafiettes, if you have any suggestions, let me know!)

Plus I got to see many of my business and fashion idols like Helen Zhu (founder of Chictopia), Rebecca Stice (blogger from The Clothes Horse), Judy and Jane Aldridge (from Atlantis Home and Sea of Shoes), Susan Koger (founder of ModCloth), and so many more.

I’m so excited for the Chictopia10 Social Influence Summit next month.  Best birthday gift ever! It is going to be filled with amazing people like Helen Zhu (CEO of Chictopia) and Susan Koger (founder of ModCloth).

I’m also very nervous though. First, I’m not going to know anyone there. Second, I have no idea what to wear.  I’m going to be in a room with some of the most fashionable gals on the web, so I have to look fabulous.
