my spring wardrobe essentials
Romper: COS Stores, Sweater: M Made in Italy, Shoes: Top Shop, Bag: Kate Spade, Earrings: Danielle Stevens, Bracelet: Nissa Jewelry
Spring is one of my favorite seasons yet, in my opinion, one of the most complicated ones to shop for. The weather is extremely indecisive, one day you need to throw on your winter jacket, another you are in a tee shirt and the entire time, you are ready to break out your summer mini dresses. For me, spring style is all about those key spring wardrobe essentials that act ad transition pieces that are absolutely effortless and can also be worn all summer long.
every woman needs these spring wardrobe essentials
A sophisticated, yet casual romper: I say sophisticated yet casual because I am now 28 years old and I do not think it is attractive or appropriate for me to be walking around town in a booty-baring jumpsuit. It’s just not my style. Unless you are toothpick skinny and/or are under the age of 20, it really isn’t a good look for anyone. With that said, I do love rompers when they are the right cut and fit. I am 5’10 so finding one that doesn’t suffocate my southern region is a task so I always look for rompers that run extra long. I especially love this COS one I am wearing because it is the perfect length, the collar adds that menswear style I always rock, and the pinstripes make it more sophisticated. This jumpsuit can be worn alone, with a sweater (as pictured above), or with a blazer.
An oversized sweater: The perfect spring layering piece is an oversized sweater. In LA, it is very chilly in the mornings because of the marine layer that makes it cloudy until 1:00 pm. I like to throw on an oversized sweater that will keep me warm in the AM, adds some style and won’t wrinkle my outfit when I want to ditch it in the afternoon.
A summer crossbody: If you follow me on Instagram you are probably thinking, “get a new bag already!” I am guilty of over-wearing my white Kate Spade crossbody but honestly, it’s become my favorite bag! It’s the perfect size! Small, but mysteriously stills fits my DSLR, wallet, phone and 5 lipglosses, and I love the simple style and white color- it’s perfect for an on-the-go lady like myself. A small crossbody bag in a light shade is an absolute spring wardrobe essential!
Color Blocked Sandals: You can’t go wrong with a good color blocked sandal! This style is perfect for spring and summer and adds a modern twist to any outfit. I wear this pair with everything from flirty dresses to the shredded denim jeans I promised my mom I already threw out.
Statement Earrings: I love jewelry but I don’t wear a lot of it. Except earrings. Statement earrings are great for spring and summer accessorizing because as the weather warms up, you are going to want to wear less and less body grazing pieces so what better to pair your summer updo with than a pair of bold and colorful earrings?
What are your go-to spring wardrobe essentials? Any pieces I should add to my list?
Cheers to fashion, seeing the world and always having fun!
