,
The spring season is here with flirty florals, playful pleats and cropped pants to make us eager to step outside and display our new finds.
One of the things I love about spring wardrobe shopping is that each piece doesn't have to be extremely expensive, and therefore, you can have fun with trends that you may only wear one season. This year neon, fringe and art deco had their fun on the catwalks, but I wouldn't necessarily splurge on a purchase for any one of these trends.
On the other side however, there are a handful of items that are worth investing in as they will carry you from year to year and some from season to season (the pencil skirt for example). Cropped pants are back in a big way which is wonderful because they are flattering on nearly all body types. Pair with a light cashmere sweater or a silk blouse, don some flats or elevated sandals and you will in no time look classically chic each spring.
I've pulled together a list of items found on the spring runways that are worth investing in, as I am confident they can be worn each year if properly taken care of, and I've also created a playful list to consider if you want to introduce a few of the season's trends into your closet.
Remember to always stick to your signature style, honestly assess what you need in your closet before going shopping and then let yourself have fun shopping, dreaming and being a model for a day. After all, we all deserve to feel beautiful because each of us is - uniquely so.
Enjoy the season~
