Are you excited for SPRINGGG?!?!?1


As winter drags on fashionistas are getting tired of the winter look. We are sick of our sweaters, pants and all the dark colors. Spring and Summer clothes are so much more fun; bright and easy. But don't worry stores are filling this need with  pre-spring collections.

Although it may feel strange to buy spring clothes in February, maybe you are going on vacation or maybe you just want to have a little fun and get a jump start on spicing up your look for spring. That is once you've gotten that winter weight off.

A few trends to be on the look for are the colors palettes for spring.  I've heard and read a lot about pastel colors being the thing to have.  There are a lot of blush and nudes being showcased, which is a great color to add to your closet because it is a soft color that is very easy to match with. I think this color would do great as a blazer, a step away from the traditional blacks, blues and grey. This soft color also makes it easy to dress up or down.  Colored blazers have a huge presence for the spring and I think it is a must have for the season, and blush is my color of choice.

This is an example of the blush color, for this piece I would go for a more relaxed look and probably a 3/4 sleeve. It gives you more options for both casual and professional outfit. You can find this type of blazer anywhere from forever 21 to Saks. I happen to really like the bar III blazer from Macy's.

Pastels have also taken over jeans. Blush, green and blue are just a few of the many pastel colors you can find in denim. Colored bottoms are such a great way to add color to your wardrobe. You can always pair a simple top to the bottoms and look effortlessly cute. AG has a great selection of pastel jeans, they are very soft and comfortable and have a fantastic look. AGs' pastel jeans have a little bit of a neon hue to them, which makes for an intriguing color.


However, remember those jewel tones that were big in the fall. Don't worry they are still around.  For the spring the jewel tone colors have a little bold hue to them. The colors to look for are green, blue, purple and orange. The IT color for the spring is actually orange. I LOVE this because orange is my favorite color and I think it get over looked for it fashion capability. You can find this color in every line and every form. I think everyone should at least try to add a piece of this great color to their wardrobe, even if you don't think it's for you just give it a try.
