The weather is getting warmer and it’s time to break out your spring clothes! But there can be certain challenges to transitioning your wardrobe for the new season.
When you pack away your winter wardrobe and break out your spring clothes, it’s important to try on the clothes, especially the basics; like your shorts, your blouses, and anything that looks too small or too big. The sooner you know what fits you properly, the better. If you find a fit issue, you can either toss it (or donate it), take it to your local tailor, or go shopping for a replacement. Nothing is worse than planning an outfit, only to realize that a piece of clothing doesn’t fit the way it used to. When you know what fits and makes you feel good, you are ready to go.
In the beginning of Spring, many times the morning air can still be chilly. So it’s important to dress in layers that can be tastefully discarded throughout the day as the temperature rises. Tops are easy to layer with jackets or cardigans. While long pants are always professional, capris are always a great go-between pants and shorts.
Some people feel a bit uneasy transitioning into a spring/summer wardrobe because it involves showing more skin. If it is a body image fear, just remember that confidence makes any outfit look better! You deserve to feel comfortable in your clothes and in your skin. You are also under no obligation to show more skin than you are comfortable with.
When it comes to showing more skin, just remember to watch out for wardrobe malfunctions.
With these tips, I hope you enjoy the start of spring and continue to feel fabulous wherever you go!
