I am so excited to share my first guest post with you! I recently met April of April Golightly at the Independent Fashion Bloggers Conference in New York City. April has come up with a great list of spring staples to share with you!
Spring is here and it is time to break out the spring staples that can be worn all spring and summer long.
1. Something Yellow
Yellow was all over the spring ready to wear runways and who am I to disregard this happy color. Yellow has an uplifting ability that will brighten your day and the days of the people around you. If you are frightened of a full yellow outfit, I recommend buying a yellow accessory to add a pop of color, like a pair of yellow shoes or yellow belt. If the color looks great on you, embrace it and rock it as much as possible this spring.
2. Jean Cut-Off Shorts
Just like a good pair of jeans, denim cut off shorts go with everything in the spring and summer. I highly recommend hitting up your local Good Will and searching for pair of Levi’s that you can cut off yourself. Places like LF are charging $150 for the same shorts and you can probably get a perfect pair for $8.00 at the local thrift store. All you need is a scissor for this DIY project. I made my own cut offs and wear them constantly. You can also control the length by doing it yourself. To me that control is priceless.
3. Over-sized Sunglasses
As the sun gets more powerful, if you aren’t already wearing sunglasses on a daily basis, you better start protecting your eyes now! I am huge fan of over-sized sunglasses that cover as much skin as possible. You are protecting both your eyes and the precious wrinkle prone skin around them.
4. White Sandals
White sandals are a spring staple that just adds a fresh feel to any outfit. There are so many different heel heights and styles to choose from that any women can find a pair of white sandals that suits them. I splurged on mine since I know I will get use out of them. The Valentino Bow Flip Flops are iconic and I get compliments on them literal every time I wear them!
5. Mint Jeans
Mint Jeans are the new blue jeans for me. This color has become my new fave. You must have them in your wardrobe as they can go with almost any top. Don’t underestimate the mint!
What is your favorite spring staple?
