The Arrival of Spring

12:09 PM

Welcome all!

Recently, the weather hasn't matched up to my expectations for spring. The flowers are taking their good ole sweet time to bloom and it's cold as a winter's day where I live. I thought it would be a great idea to honor springtime on the blog to get into the spring spirit. Today, I will be talking about my favorite spring colors and share outfits inspired by upcoming spring trends.
My SpringTime Colors
Pinks: Pale/light pink really compliments my skin tone. The color is really classy and pairs perfectly with almost any nude shade. 
 
Burgundy: I always like this color, no matter what season it is. Spring is a transitioning season so I wouldn't be afraid to infuse a hint of dark colors. I would really love to get my hands on a pair of burgundy Capri or off the shoulder top. 
 
Earth tones: This group of colors usually go with almost anything so they're definitely a necessity. 
 
Blues: Denim is one of the major pieces of clothing in my wardrobe so I had to mention it. Also, I like light to dark blue colors when it comes to the warmer seasons. 
 
Green: Like pink, I believe that green goes perfectly with my skin tone. The color green just makes me feel warm like how the color yellow makes a person feel warm in the summer.
The His and Her (Part 2)
For Spring, women are going to be rocking a whole variety of floral prints. The floral bag was supposed to make the outfit pop to balance out the neutral vibes. The classic nude pump would never go out of style and fits the spring vibes to a T. The top added a subtle pop of color and a comfortable look to the outfit. I think the trousers were a combination of classy and formal which is what I personally like. I thought they reflected the specific trend where women are gravitating towards male styles. The earrings were just a unique touch since unique clothing items are very trendy. 
The male version was supposed to mimic the cool tones that were in the female version. This outfit was mainly expressing the concept, " Keep it simple and sweet". The tan pants and brown boots were paired up to kept the neutral tones prominent within this look. Lastly, the shades paired nicely with the cool blue colors.
 
Suggestions: You could definitely pair the blue crop top with a cardigan or a trench coat. Spring does invite rain and wind into the picture. For men, you could wear a bomber jacket or a pendant necklace.
The His and Her (Part 1) This Spring, I have a feeling that off the shoulder tops are going to make a comeback. They're showing a little skin but protects your arms from breeze. The ripped, skinny jeans were suppose to add a chill effect to the outfit. Booties are still a must for spring since we're transitioning from winter. The light green bag was meant to add a little color to the outfit. The reflective sunglasses are going to be a hit this spring/summer.

This specific his and her set was suppose to contrast from the dressy set above. For men, I was still going off of the idea of keeping it simple. Vans are always very popular among both men and women. Sneakers are very necessary when it comes to sportswear and being comfortable this season. Spring is definitely a time to break out the prints so I decided to pair the striped shirt with skinny jeans. Since we're talking about sunglasses, I would think that Ray-bans would be a popular choice among men.

Suggestions: To finish of the off-the shoulder top, it would be great to add a brown wrap choker to match the boots. The striped shirt could be paired with a light-weight jacket especially for those rainy days.

I thought it would be a good time to talk about men's fashion since I rarely ever do. If you would like to shop for men's clothing, then check out Bonobos. Their short-sleeve bottom up shirts and majority of clothing are literary pattern heaven. My favorite ones are "Green Hula Girls", "Black Tropic Fever" and "Blue Seahorse Herd". I believe that the company expands the range of men's fashion wear when it comes to prints. I would probably even buy myself a shirt or tie.

On a final note, I hope you all enjoyed the first post that commemorates the beginning of spring. If you would like to check out the items in both sets, then go to His and Her Outfits. Please stay tune for the many spring-inspired posts to come!
