Ahh... the weather will soon be warm again, and you are probably itching to show off your legs! Lucky for you, one of the newest trends for spring is hot pants, which will be an adorable addition to your spring 2010 wardrobe.

In preparation, this is the time to hit the gym to make sure that your legs are toned, tanned, and gorgeous. Hot pants don't necessarily leave anything to the imagination, but they were all over the runway in beautiful colors that show off tan skin, like sleek white. This is your opportunity to spice up your evening wear and pair hot pants with a silky top to go to the club or on a romantic dinner date.

The truth is that hot pants shouldn't be underestimated because they can be worn to almost any occasion, except work or a funeral, of course. Otherwise, get creative and rock them at the beach, at a lunch date, or even shopping with your girlfriends. For an even chicer way to wear this hot pant trend, try them with a blazer or scarf. It truly is the best of both worlds because you get to show off your legs in the warmer weather, but you will still look sophisticated and dressed up above the waist.

And what kind of shoes will you wear? Of course, this totally depends upon the occasion, but you can go for flat sandals if you are out at the beach, wedges if you are shopping with your girlfriends, or even stilettos if you are going for a wild night out in your hot pant ensemble. The ONLY word of caution is to not mix your trends too much and wear hot pants with chunky boots under any circumstance. That is an absolute no-no because the trend of hot pants screams fun, flirty, and springtime! Time to start doing squats to get prepared...
