‘Welcome Spring!’ Looks for 2013 ~ #SpringFashion

By 15 Comments

Just 9 more days till the first day of Spring! I’m ready to put together some Spring looks! This past weekend we had gorgeous weather in the 50s/60s, and it totally put me in the mood for one of my favorite seasons. This inspired me to head into my closet and start pulling out my favorite Spring looks and staples. After looking to see what colors were hot for Spring this year, I decided why not update some of the pieces I already with a Spring 2013 twist?

It wasn’t too long ago I picked up this adorable dress from Macy’s. I found it fun and flirty, but the color seemed more winter appropriate. I often paired it with black accessories, but decided to get a feel of how it would look if I wore it in the Spring with turquoise, mint, and emerald hues! I saw these colors heavily used in Kate Spade’s Spring 2013 line. Plus the other day I walked by a display window in the mall for EXPRESS and again saw lots of mints and emeralds! These colors are definitely a hot trend right now, and absolutely perfect for Spring.

Picks for Spring Looks

Dress: bar lll Dress, Macys, $79
Cardigan: Essentials by Full Tilt (Mint), Tilly’s, $19.99
Shoes: Bow-Front Cutout Ballet Flat (Mint), Charlotte Russe, $19.50
Handbag: Jessica Simpson Trish Hobo (Mint), Zappos, $88.00
Earrings: Pave Bubble Earrings (Bright Jadeite), Ann Taylor, $28
Necklace: Layered Stone Statement (Jade), Charlotte Russe, $12.99

I can’t wait to try to put everything together! I might not wear all the accessories at the same time. However, I love the pop of color it gives my grey dress. Let’s hope it works out!

What do you predict will be the hot colors this Spring?
