Fashion Sense: Spring Trends

At the beginning of every season, fashion magazines are full of ‘What to Buy NOW!” so that you are always in style. However, any true fashionista knows to stick to a uniform and just update seasonally with accessories or a slight silhouette change. With any overtly trendy pieces, one to two is okay; if you find yourself wearing three things that could be found at any H&M or Forever 21- beware. It’s easy to become a fashion victim without even noticing. Coco Chanel always advised to take off one thing before leaving the house as to ensure you’re not wearing too much!

That all being said, here is my abbreviated list of fun spring trends to try, just remember…one at a time!

Superbrights: Neon and bright colors are back in full force to welcome the warm weather (Spring, where are you? I’m ready for warm!). Burberry has a Neon neoprene version of their classic trench, but I would recommend keeping the super bright colors as accent pieces for now. Prominently incorporating bright colors into your wardrobe in a fun way to welcome the warm weather (once it finalllllllly arrives).

Safari-inspired: Can be found most often in jackets, structured shorts and dresses. The good thing about this trend is that khaki, army and olive green; and other neutrals found in this color palate are good colors for just about any skin tone. The secret to finding a good color for your skin is when your cheeks have a rosy glow while wearing it.

Florals: Are everywhere for Spring, and in everything from dresses to accessories to shoes. Just be sure to pair floral prints with a neutral or masculine piece if you don’t want to feel like Laura Ashley.

That’s all for now-
Good luck in spring shopping!
