Swing into the New Year with a sneak peek into Foley & Corrina's hottest new offerings for Spring/Summer 2009.

Ombre Fringe Top

If you're lucky enough to get your hands on these shimmery numbers, you'll be set for New Year's Eve.

Strapless Ombre Fringe Dress

Don't fret. Since these are from Foley & Corinna's Spring/Summer Line, you can still get them...

Tiered Bow Dress

and wear them for a very long time, well into Summer soirees and Spoleto cocktails and events, school dances or even the prom. You might unexpectedly be mistaken for a "Gossip Girl" since Foley & Corinna does outfit the stars, Leighton Meester, and the most of the cast of that tv series.

Rainbow Shift Dress

You might be happily mistaken for the Hippie-influence, free-flowing Upper East Side prepster, Serena van der Woodsen in this rainbow striped dress and the following outfits.

Layla Handheld Totes in Butterscotch, Black, and Ivory

Even if you feel like you're too old or if the clothes are a little too frilly for your internship or first job, you can justify in investing in these roomy, hardy totes and bags that are a great compliment for any age and job.

These Layla Totes can hold your entire life, notebooks (both the computer and the paper kind), a Blackberry, a cell, a scarf, a makeup bag, even a light jacket.

Jitney Totes in Coal, Beige, and White in Black Trim

You can do a "Mom and Daughter" team with these very classic Jitney Totes. Great Spring/Summer carry-alls for the beach, something to stash your lipgloss, sunscreen, bronzer, iPod or iPhone with a cover-up and hat.

Retro Dandelion Mini Dress with Sleeves

Foley & Corinna isn't just swinging party and evening wear. They also make some sweet contemporary day wear that can help you ease into those humid, muggy Spring/Summer days.

As proven above, their day wear can be simply dressed up with a functional but chic Layla tote for town.

This dress can also be worn as a tunic with skinny jeans and boots.

Cosmic Jungle Triangle Cup Top with Perforated Crossbody Bag

You can really stretch a wardrobe by pairing a frugal jean cut-off with the airy Cosmic Jungle Triangle Cup Top.

The Crossbody Bag is a wise high school/college investment, hauling all your books and laptop and iPhone from class to beach or vice versa.

Baby Disco Pouches and Bright Multi Macrame Clutch

You can wear a Foley & Corinna Crepe and Chiffon Pieced Tunic for the office or a more formal night out when you pair it with an equally creamy silk camisole. Save the Metallic Linen Shorts for the clubs. Lurex-infused fabrics are the next big trend in fabrication, giving outfits that subtle Space Age Sheen.

If the previous fringe tops and dresses are too much for you, you can always carry a fringe clutch in bohemian macrame.

See, Foley & Corinna has everything for everyone for Spring and Summer.
