Spring weather can be unpredictable. Sunny afternoons mean little dresses and dainty skirts, while evenings call for something a tad warmer.
One way to keep from overdoing the girly-factor is to toughen up an overly pretty look with some boyish accessories.
Flowers have been blooming all over the runways for the past few seasons, and they are more vivid than ever this spring.
Light outerwear might still be necessary, but nothing says “get outta town, winter” like a good jean jacket.
Dress up a pair of black trousers for a great look. Choose a high-waisted, tapered pair in a nice material such as wool.
Decorative collars have been a strong trend for almost a year now, with detachable or ornate collars all over the runway for the past two or three seasons.
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and there’s just something special about dressing festively for the occasion.
Mixed prints are all over the runways, from floral to spots. This trend is easy to replicate at home, and plaid is a very accessible way to emulate this look without going overboard.
