Fashion: Rev Up Spring

Shot on location at Baierl Fiat in Wexford, the eco-efficient FIAT 500 is a safe subcompact that delivers a combined fuel economy of 30-mpg or higher. One of its most unique features is the Eco Drive system, which monitors driving habits and shows how efficiency can improve via a thumb drive that plugs into the car’s USB port.
Four-Heel Drive
With fold-down back seats, the storage space is the perfect place to kick up your heels. Pink heels by Nine West feature rainbow detailing and are paired with sunglow opaque tights by HUE; tomato-red and ocean-blue ankle-strap heels by Jessica Simpson are paired with gypsy-rose opaque tights by HUE (all from Macy’s).
