Step into spring with style and discover the destination for must-have accessories this season

(TRAVPR.COM) USA - March 15th, 2013 - March 2013 – Chic Outlet Shopping^®, the Collection of luxury outlet Villages by Value Retail, launched its ‘Head Over Heels For Spring’ Campaign in March, which will showcase the very best trends for this season’s accessories.

From Missoni scarves to statement Yves Saint Laurent heels, from a skinny Bally belt to that oversized Anya Hindmarch bag – the Chic Outlet Shopping^® Villages are the destination for all of your must-have accessories this spring

As part of its ‘Head Over Heels For Spring’ campaign, Chic Outlet Shopping^® has created a one-of-a-kind film, produced by Creative Director Clark Edwards, to promote its luxury accessories offering this season. The short film depicts a day in the life of a chic heroine, whose accessories play the perfect best-supporting role to her jet-setting lifestyle. Shot in Miami and paying quiet homage to hit movie The Thomas Crown Affair, the film captures this spring’s contemporary retro feel. Watch the film on ChicOutletshopping.com from 1 March.

The celebration of Head Over Heels For Spring will continue at the Villages, each serving up a selection of irresistible accessories promotions guaranteed to transform any wardrobe from top to toe. With price reductions of up to 60% on the recommended retail price, it’s never been easier to step into spring with style.

At Las Rozas Village near Madrid and La Roca Village near Barcelona multi-brand pop-up boutiques will showcase some of Spain’s favourite home-grown milliners and shoe designers. Legendary milliner Stephen Jones, ambassador for the Head Over Heels For Spring campaign in Spain, will work closely with the designers to curate a bespoke collection, offering visitors a chance to pick up exquisite one-off pieces steeped in Spanish craftsmanship.

The festivities continue at La Vallée Village near Paris where esteemed stylist and fashion author Isabelle Thomas will create a unique art exhibition at the Village’s contemporary art gallery. Fusing art and style with language, the ‘Words of Fashion’ exhibition will feature a fun fashion glossary to give voice to new ideas and spark the imagination. Discover ‘Words with Art’ at Espace La Vallée^® Village from 22 March until 20 May.
