With spring trends popping up left and right, I took the liberty of weeding out one must-have item for everyone – and I mean everyone. From the of-the-moment men’s shoe to the dress to be seen in on the playground, this is what the stylish will be rocking this season.

For Men: The Smoking Slipper
Laces were so last year. For 2013, step into spring with these oh-so-dapper slip-ons (and skip the socks).

For Women:  Graphic Prints
Warning: This trend is not for the faint of heart, so go big or go home – and keep those accessories minimal.

For Girls: The Shirtdress
This trend has already spread like wildfire for us grown-ups, and now it’s all over the playgrounds, too.

For Home: Houndstooth
A menswear classic, let this traditional pattern (in new color combos) sharpen up your space in the form of shower curtains, throws, and decorative pillows.

Our Big. Rue. Sale. Boutique opens Thursday, March 14, at 11AM ET.
