Springtime is just around the corner...time to be thinking about transitioning from heavy winter coats and boots to light-weight jackets, perfect "holy" jeans, flats, booties, or my all time fav...converse! Pennsylvania's Punxsutawney Phil, the USA's most famous furry meteorologist, emerged from his burrow to proclaim to the crowd that he did not see his shadow. Hallelujah! I am so ready for springtime and my wardrobe is too!!
Here are few necessities that I think every gal or guy...depending on your style, should have!
1. Light-weight jacket - olive, olive, olive! Olive this jacket...it's so functional. Did you see what I did there? This jacket is going to be my favorite this season! I love the color, the style, the pockets and even though I am not normally a "hood" type of girl, it works here! I found this steal on none other than Groopdealz, so it was a bargain, but it's still great quality! It looks super cute with jeans, flats, booties, or even converse. I scored a bone-colored jacket at Gap a few weeks on the sale rack...perfect for Spring too!
2. Leopard Flats...enough said! These are by Calvin Klein and they are super comfy and can be worn with so many different outfits! Pair them with jeans and a casual shirt or even with a cute spring dress or skirt. Don't get all matchy-matchy either...leopard, when worn at a minimum can be look cute with so many different patterns or bright solids. Make them the statement piece of your wardrobe.
3. Jeans...we all want the perfect pair! And let me tell you, when I find them, they aren't let out of my site! A good pair of jeans can last years and I am that person that washes and dries them too...my friends think I am crazy! But I can easily have a pair of jeans for at least 5 years if not longer. Don't be afraid to spend a little money on jeans either, I truly think with jeans, you get what you pay for! Right now, skinnies are it for me! Look great with almost every shoe, are flattering, and the holier the better! Make sure and have a good light and dark pair. I love Hudson's, they are like butta! A few other fav's are Miss Me's, Paige, and True Religion...look on the sale racks for awesome deals too! I recently bought a pair of BKE's (I will be honest, I do not shop at the Buckle) but, after sporting them for the morning Fox 4 Spring Fashion's segment, they are great!
Hudson, True Religion, BKE
4. Booties, I am obsessed! Flat or with a small heal, everyone needs a couple of pairs...at least!
5. Converse...enough said.
Happy Spring Shopping!
