Hello, dears!
I’m so excited to bring you another post sponsored by Maggy London! They sent me this gorgeous dress (the Stephani) to share with all of you. One of my favorite things about it, along with the very flattering, curve-hugging shape, is the midi length. It’s super on-trend for spring, and versatile enough that you’re not stuck wearing it to only casual or formal events. I’ve styled it two ways here, one look perfect for going out (hello, date night!), the other is something I would totally wear to work, perhaps with a little sweater thrown over my arms to ward off that office chill.
On the note of spring trends, I must confess that I’m going a bit crazy over all of the lovely ones that are coming out right now. I wanted to talk about a few of my faves, and the standout ways to incorporate them into your daily wardrobe.
First, is embroidery. Embroidery really started gaining momentum in the second half of last year, and I don’t see it slowing down anytime soon! My favorite ways to incorporate it are in small doses. A little on the collar of a blouse, on the back pocket of a pair of jeans, or even on pretty embroidered patches sewn on to a jean jacket.
You can’t have spring without pastels, and I’m not sure which is my favorite at the moment! From Tiffany blue to canary yellow, from pale pink to celadon, I’m not ruling anything out! I love to pair a pastel mani with a darker version of the color on my toes, like a sky blue and navy, to keep the effect from looking too cutesy. You can never go wrong with pairing a floaty pastel blouse with white jeans and espadrilles, it’s kind a no-brainer spring look!
I keep seeing shoes (think flats, not heels) with bows on them, and I’m obsessed. Other footwear trends I’m currently coveting are cutouts (like both of the pairs I’m wearing in these looks!), dove grey suede, bold pops of color paired with an otherwise neutral look, like an all-white ensemble, and espadrille wedges.
As for jewelry, I’m still loving chokers, but have been gravitating towards less severe styles. A delicate gold choker paired with a couple of longer beaded strands is totally up my alley. Layered and wrap bracelets and still topping my list for wristwear, along with little gold rings and midi rings with and without crystals so that your hands catch the light when you talk with them (which I so frequently do!)
I’d love to hear what some of your favorite trends for spring are… Which prints and colors are grabbing your eye this season?
