Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

If you're going for just one trend this spring, make it bright colors. Color blocking in jewel or neon tones has just entered Polyvore's top ten, and you will even be able to keep wearing them this fall!

As for the rest of this week's listed trends, users seemingly can't yet decide between soft and feminine spring outfits (high waist trousers, feather earrings) and tougher transition looks (denim shirts, studded jackets).

In general, this spring trendsetters are looking to affordable clothing with fast fashion chains now dominating all three top spots in brands. Newly featured labels rue21 and Fat Face - whose pricing ranges are similar to H&M's - are further adding to the trend. Also, Topshop's Oxford Street neighbor Miss Selfridge has made its top brands debut this week after premiering in top websites the week before.

While US TV girls still rule over the celebrity ranking, Rachel Bilson gets listed maybe thanks to her role alongside Baptiste Giabiconi in Karl Lagerfeld's lush new ice cream ads for Magnum, and Lauren Conrad's first Polyvore appearance might be due to the luanch of her new clothing line Paper Crown.
