Silver is finally making a true comeback per Vanessa Vicari of Vanessa V. Boutique. And Elizabeth Haik Johnson of Shoe Fits says shoes are going to show up in silver (as well as gold, bronze and pewter).

"Flashy and muted," she says. " ... sandals, wedges and heels. And if the shoes aren't metallic, the heel alone may be."

She also points to neutral shades and natural materials. Think cork in particular, which Elizabeth notes will pair great with the bright-hued trends that will rock this spring.

"Printed wedges, reptile skins and fun pops of color," she says noting her fav being coral. " ... it adds fun to any outfit."

in the way of accessories, Vanessa says they'll be piling them on in 2013.

"Layering a bunch of bracelets like leather wrap bracelets mixed with skinny bangles," she says.

And eclectic blend is always up my alley. Count us in.
