Spring is here and the change of seasons is a great time to edit your wardrobe, shed the heavy outerwear, and enjoy more color, lighter fabrics, and thinner layers. This season there are so many great wearable fashion trends to experiment and have fun with. Here are my recommendations for 7 wearable spring trends to add to your wardrobe.
Straight Leg Denim
Jackie Jean, $230, Anine Bing
There are so many different denim trends to try now, but straight leg denim is my favorite because it’s flattering on all body types and it can be styled in so many ways. Add a simple tee, blazer, and ballet flats for a chic and polished look.
Elevated Basics
Boyfriend Shirt, $65, LOFT
Basics like button-downs and tanks are wardrobe staples, but we are seeing elevated basics like this boyfriend shirt. It is 100% cotton and so soft, timeless, and perfectly oversized. This elevated basic is a year round staple and wardrobe must-have item. Style it with a denim skirt, a pair of camel trousers, or even wear it over a swimsuit as a chic and simple cover up.
Brown Leather
Generation Love Delilah Vegan Leather Blazer, $385, Morley
A brown leather blazer is a modern take on the traditional black leather jacket and it blends more naturally for Spring style. You can style it with other shades of brown for a tonal look, or pair it up with pastels for a look that is on trend and stylish.
Color Trend-Emerald Green
Side-Slit Skirt, $80, Anthropologie
Green, in all its forms like emerald, mint green, and lime is slated to be one of the top spring colors. This emerald green maxi skirt is on trend and a great piece to add to your spring wardrobe. Style the skirt with a white ribbed tank and sandals for a casual look or a blazer and heels for a work-appropriate look.
Long Hemlines
Ulla Johnson Ada Woven Flatform, $590, Wylie Grey
Mini skirts have had their time, but now it’s time to let maxi skirts and dresses shine. This statement making maxi dress doesn’t require much of anything else to make it a perfect 10. It plays with volume, balancing a ruched bodice with deep V-neckline. Highlights include a maxi-length skirt adorned with cascading ruffles and self-fabric shoulder straps that crisscross at the back and bow at each shoulder.
Pretty Pastels
The Puff Crossbody Bag: Woven Leather Edition, $128, Madewell
Pastels like mint green, lavender, powder blue, and soft pink are all trending for spring. Pastels are calming and feminine and if you want to give this trend a try without too much commitment, an easy way is through your accessories, like with this pink woven leather crossbody bag.
Layered Jewelry
Venice Layering Set, $108, Gorjana
Jewelry is a great way to elevate and complete an outfit. This dainty chain link + on trend herringbone layering set is classic and can be styled with literally everything in your wardrobe.
