Spring fashion is filled with prints and florals, which can be tricky to mix-and-match, but the Norwegian Wood SS10 collection pulls it off beautifully. The bold pattern-mixing is regarded by Kingdom of Style as "tempered by ensuring the tones are subtly complementary," meaning each ensemble doesn't look all over the place.

The Norwegian Wood SS10 collection is more edgy than whimsical, which is refreshing for a [spring collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vowels-1). Also, the model's half-shaved hairstyle, which is becoming extremely popular, gives that added oomph to each outfit.
