Spring Break Fashion: The Classics and Newbies

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Mercer chapter.

 

It is that typical time of year where we are all ready to take a break and desire to hit the beaches, no matter where you go there is one thing for sure  fashion is of the essence! Here are six style tips that are sure to keep you cool as well as looking hot!

1)  Who wears short shorts? – Not you this year! You could go with the shorter version but all signs point towards the Bermuda shorts being in this year. And oh boy are they back bolder, looser, and sexier than before. There are plenty of prints to chose from and match with a loose or tight t-shirt! The one seen above is personally my favorite style!

2) The Jacket – I know it’s the beach who wants a jacket at the beach?  Seriously though, hear me out here. Jackets are so in this season you would be at a lost without them! Not to mention it can get a little chilly towards the evening time! Snazzy blazers, bejeweled, patterned, and buttoned with a simple tank top underneath and a cute pair of well fitted jeans is simple but not understated. Check out Pintrest for more styles.

4) Swim Suit and Cover up – The idea this season isn’t to get to matchy-matchy but have a standard color running through them. No matter what color you chose the type of bathing suit is very important! My advice is to go with either a saucy two piece or a sassy one piece. Anything in-between can get a little more than confusing.

3) Don’t show it all – Never show all the goodies at once, peek-a-boos tops seem to be in style this year. A little pop of the shoulders in a shirt with sheer sleeves or even more scandalous a scoop of the lower back. No matter what you choose keep it classy, cool and breeze. Photo Credit.

5) The Classic Beach dress – Don’t forget this suitcase standard! A classic beach dress highlights all the right curves and feature of your body. Floor length or thigh high it doesn’t matter as long as you look stunning! It time to go bright, bold, and sassy!

6) Shield Your Eyes – Sassy sunnies are so in right now. From the classic Ray Ban shape to the oversized oval shape they are all an option. The size really depends on what works on your face, the colors and patterns however are sky high in options. There is no way you can go wrong with a hot pink or cool blue, rhinestones or glitter, zebra or cheetah? The options are endless so set a standard and go bold! Check out our Pintrest for more styles
