Oh yes, it is that time of season again. It is the season where all the new, hot Spring 2008 trends are at their peak and veering into popular stores everywhere.

Fashion week in Paris, London, and New York have already engaged the elite on what is in and what is out for this spring.

But because not everyone has time to jet over to the other side of the nation or world, much less score a pass to one of Marc Jacob's fashion shows, does not mean they have to miss out on what the new buzz is on Couture Lane.

This spring keep the eye's keen on bright, rich colors from many collections.

Ralph Lauren even added some deeply saturated colors to his spring collection in celebration of his forty years of gracing the runway.

MCC fashion student, Kirk Millar, loves the bright, neon trend for spring.

"I have noticed alot of bright purples and violets for spring. For my next collection I am incorporating those colors into it," said Millar.

On the calmer side of new Spring 2008 trends, there is the whole 60's, flower child revival going on.

Giorgio Armani is getting in on this by adding a ton of fringe to his pieces.
Stephanie Struzyk, an 18-year-old ASU student, took the hippie revival look to a whole new level by adding her own accessories.

"I like to take my scarves and tie them around my head, kind of like a bandanna, to add a bit of hippie-ness to my look," said Struzyk.

Roberto Cavalli added his mix of 70's swing with bold paisley numbers in rich purple.
MCC fashion student Zach Boscia thinks the vintage look is coming back along with penny loafers.

"For spring the loose, flowy peasant tops are in and so is the retro look too," said Boscia.

Wunderkind is also definitely digging the far-out resurrection by adding that funky psychedelic essence in their collection.

Nina Ricci is sporting a more "Woodstock" look with rough looking tees and dark, loose pants.

Speaking of rough looks, men's wear for ladies is another trend this season.
Karl Lagerfeld is all for it, so it is definitely here for the whole season.

His spring collection included black high-waisted trousers and crisp, white collared oxfords with a zap of mini black ties.
