Punch It Up for Spring

Passion for Fashion

Alright ladies, I know it may not seem like it now but spring really is around the corner. Before you know it we’ll be breaking out the florals and bright colors. Today, let’s talk about some really easy things you can do to punch up your spring style.

Yell yellow! It’s such a simple way to add some cheer to your outfit. A touch of yellow can really wake up an ensemble. Try a sheer yellow scarf wrapped around your neck bandit style. I also recommend having a lightweight, long-sleeve yellow t-shirt that you can layer with outfits that seem dark. A gray short-sleeve or sleeveless top with the yellow layer underneath and a black pair of trousers or skirt will look sleek and modern. Another great color to pair with yellow is a jewel-toned blue. Other yellow dashes to try could be a bangle or headband.

Be bold! Everywhere you look you will see bold prints and patterns for the upcoming season. Don’t be afraid to experiment with these prints. A quick word to the wise though - be careful if you want to pair two prints together. This can spell b-u-s-y and even cause those around you to get a little dizzy. If you’re wearing a bold top or bold pants try a solid on your other half.

Get strapped! Sexy and sophisticated strappy heels are a no-brainer this spring. These heels don’t necessarily have to be slinky. There are thick strap pairs, which are just as cute and will compliment your straight-leg jeans as well as capris. Thinner straps will look great with your twill skinny pants, dresses and skirts.

Now that I’ve prepared you for what is coming,  dig these out of your closet and get them ready for a stupendously stylish spring!
