Be On Trend This Season

It’s not quite the time to put away your coats, but in Louisiana, it’s 60℉ so we’re taking a moment to talk about Spring style.

ANIMAL PRINT

Following us from season to season is animal print. It’s become our favorite neutral. Keep your wardrobe fierce with all the prints: leopard, zebra, tiger and my personal favorite, snake. How to wear: You’re meant to have fun with this one. Animal print shoes glam up any outfit. Turn heads with a leopard coat. You can tone the prints down with black or pair with bright colors.

COLOR BLOCKING

Color blocking will be a big hit this Spring. I asked my fashionista friend, Hayley Smith , how she wears it. “Color block? Yes, please. I’m wearing a grey sweater, grey pants and grey heels right now". How to wear: Stack your outfit with different shades for a more professional look or go bold by wearing split complementary colors .

PASTELS

“Florals? For Spring? Groundbreaking."  We know pastels are in no way a new trend. However, pastels are going to be everywhere and we’re living for it. Update this pastel look by going sheer. Wear a darker bralette for eye catching contrast. We also love the texture in this lavender sweater, shop the distressed look here .

NEON

Neon made an appearance in 2009. Now it’s back and not just for the Kar-Jenners. You’ll feel bright and beautiful in this neon tank . This trend can be intimidating. If you want to be a little more subtle, you can accessorize with a neon belt or handbag. Hot magenta and bright orange are my personal favorite neon colors.

HEAD TO TOE EARTH TONES

Beige, Beige, Beige! When you need a break from neons and pastels, make a monochromatic statement in beige. Hayley says, “I love earth tones, wearing it head to toe is an easy simple chic look." Swap out your LBD for a neutral look. If you’re really feeling adventurous with this trend, check out this jumpsuit .

ROCKER CHIC

This is my go-to for a cute, casual look. The plus side? It’s super easy. A rocker tee is a must have basic for the season to throw on with jeans and some jewelry. Shop the look here .

There you have it, sis. Get in on these trends early to start your spring semester with style. We can’t wait to see how you work it.
