In tune for teens

MANILA, Philippines - What’s in store for teens in 2012? All things bright and beautiful, as color and prints pop up everywhere.

Here is a guide to the hottest teen trends from SM house brands Redhead, Soiree, and Shopaholic:

• Colored bottoms: The new pants paradigm is the brighter, the bolder, the better! Brilliant is beautiful as red, blue, yellow, green pants and shorts take the spotlight.

• Pink: This is the season’s new black. Plug in to pink and celebrate all that is fun and feminine.

• Citrus Crush: Tangerine is still hot after a year of orange. Yellow is anything but mellow as fashionistas everywhere are calling it the new neutral.

• Prints Charming: Mix, don’t match. Prints love playing with other prints.

The Redhead, Soiree, and Shopaholic collections are available at the Girls Teens’ Wear Departments of all SM stores.
