As someone who loves to shop, discovering new trends for the upcoming season is always exciting. While some of the high-end trends for spring are a little ridiculous, I’ve chosen a few that I think should definitely be wardrobe staples. I can’t wait to wear them when it’s finally warm again!
 
Sheer Blouses

This trend looks really good over a pair of skinny, cuffed jeans, or slightly tucked into a skirt. Pair with flats or sandals for an easy going look, and cuff the sleeves of the blouse for extra style points.

Chic Sunglasses

This spring, I’m loving sunglasses with a funkier shape. Find a pair that suits your face well and they become a focal point of your outfit, not just an accessory.

A Cute Trench

If you don’t already have a nude trench, I highly suggest getting one. The trench will never go out of style and looks good with everything.

Color Block

This trend looks great as a solid bottom paired with a solid top, or in a dress form. You will definitely feel springy in these combos!

Pastel Prints

This spring, don’t be afraid to combine the two classics of pastels and prints. Tons of cute blouses or skirts will be in stores, or test it out during spring break with a trendy bathing suit like this:

Tangerines

If you’re going to a spring cocktail, consider a tangerine colored dress! It looks great with a tan and will be sure to have a presence this spring.

Neon

This spring trend is definitely bright, but looks great paired with a neutral. You’ll be ready for anything in this fun outfit!

Crop Tops

Good news for the girls that took full advantage of the Victorias Secret 2 for $26 deal, crop tops are still in this spring! Pair them with low rise jeans or a high wasted skirt, and you’ll be ready for Crop Top Tuesday everyday.
