"The possibilities are truly endless. You can pick and choose your favorite parts of the latest trends and do it your way! Our Stripe Stickers can go from team spirit to this summer's hottest stripe runway trend. And our variety of floral trends available at DSW can take you from a garden party to a music festival. There's something for everyone!" Said Kayla Schwartz, TREND:BAR co-founder.
