What's Atlanta's spring fashion trend?

Haley: A jumper and some platform heels, and you’re good to go. It's easy and it's the economy. You don't have to buy a top and a bottom. Gucci hobo bags will be big.  If you buy one fabulous item, like a Gucci bag, you’ll be able to wear it forever. In this  economy spend your money on bags and shoes and save money on clothes. Go for the Gucci hobo bag and the Christian Louboutin shoes — I have a hundred pairs of them — and the little jumper, and you’ll be recession-proof.

Lionel: Most people will be wearing black even in spring. It’s the uncertain future, the Addams Family syndrome. They’ll wear black and spend a lot of money because they are not saving a damn thing. Black is all colors not personified. Out of black comes everything. To wear the black is to be full of color and full of fashion. If you’re wearing black, you’re down with the Obama thing. The spring is coming out of the void. And when you come out of the void it’s always dark and into the sun.

Shaun: Scarfs are really coming back. I know it sounds crazy but people are going to start wearing two scarfs at one time even in the springtime. Sometimes you can’t decide whether you want polka dots or some stripes or some little tassels so you do double scarfs and you’re ready to go. It started with the women but it’s really carried over to the men. I actually knocked down a wall so I could make a closet just for scarfs. I’m up to about 115 right now. Alaska started it because it’s really cold up there, but you’ll see it in Atlanta.

Where the heck did the "scarves" thing come from? Like mentioned above, I see people in warm weather wearing them- looks really uncomfortable! (and odd!)
