A trend that seems to be surviving the years through and
through and I know I will be sporting these for years to come. As the chunky
knits start to be hidden in to drawers, a kimono is a great lightweight
alternative to a cardigan yet is also a great way to add a pop of colour
I think subconsciously, we have all become stripe fanatics
all thanks to mainstream fashion but I have to say, it is a really simple yet
quite an understated way of having something a little different in your outfit.
It must be psychological but stripes really hint at spring coming to me. Not so
much bland colour in an outfit I guess
Bearing a little more skin – jeans
Spring also becomes a time to add some variation in jeans
wear. From skinny to mom to boyfriend to boot cut, they don’t have to leave us
just yet. They continuation of slits in the knees or distressing is a great
spring look. As well as rolling up the bottoms of jeans. Showing a little more
skin as the temperature rises is always a hit
Shoes
Open toed shoes and sandals etc. are pieces I like to leave
for summer. My feet don’t have to suffer just yet but some flats are a great
option if those are for you. Me, I’m sticking with my trainers. And in
combination with the rolled up jeans and an ankle bracelet to jazz things up a
bit (ahh, I’m not cool) I think trainers are the way forward especially if you
have a long day ahead of you
Bags
A change in bag is also another way to latch onto those
spring vibes loitering around. I have been loving this one from Zara which has
a pop of maroon on the inside. It’s small and compact with a little structure
without over powering any outfit. I think dumping the crap in your bag this spring
is just what is needed. But if you like to keep it simple with black, this is
one of my faves…
Something a bit more neutral in brown? This is a great
spring colour and also really underrated I think
Or go out with this burst of colour
Accessorising I think is something that transitions well
into spring to and summer. I think the key to doing it well is that less really
is more. Hot weather and a but load of jewellery really don’t bode well for me.
My charm bracelet and a watch is something small and not to overcrowding for a
busy outfit. Some simple, small hooped earrings really help tie a look together
whether it is day or night
That’s a few of my spring fashion essentials wrapped up in a
post for you all in this nifty little post. Tell me some of yours below and I
might even try them out J
