I like to think of April as a transitional month. In India 31st March ("march end "as they call it marks the end of fiscal year). As April begins people at offices and banks , especially at CPA offices are a bit relaxed. Students look forward to mid April when their exams end and thus the academic year ends. I like April because it marks the arrival of spring. Finally it starts to get warmer. Being in Georgia now and coming from India you can clearly tell that I prefer warm weather over the chilly winters.
The arrival of warm weather also means more outdoor activities, hikes and day trips and not to mention the shopping for summer essentials. Finally I can stop wearing jeans and sweater, jeans and sweater or maybe a sweater dress.
Its time to come up with cute spring outfit ideas. I can actually wear some light, cotton fabric clothes. It also means I can wear more color, more prints and more patterns. I can add some springtime vibe to the wardrobe. This means I get to wear some transitional pieces as well as give some chic finishing touches to the outfit. Spring fashion could be seen everywhere from street styles to runway trends. It can range anywhere from statement necklaces to wedges and heels, denim and camo jackets to printed pants and leggings, beachwear to sundresses. Don't shy away to try these spring clothes on some temperamental weather days. Spring into action.
Here is a list of my top 5 spring essentials-
1. Chambray or Oxford shirt ( will not hurt to have both )
2. Denim jacket
3. Floral print skirt or legging
4. Maxi dress
4. Maxi dress
5. Blouses/ tops in bold colors
So Brighten up your wardrobe and say " Bye cold weather . Hello spring ." What are your spring wardrobe essentials?
Who doesn't love spring ??

I love a simple jacket with hood n offcourse the floral skirts. . Just love them.
Spring indeed is beautiful. It's so refreshing. Then why not get that vibe into our outfits!
ReplyDeleteAgree on everything! Chambray shirt is such a versatile piece...layered with a sweater it becomes Friday work-wear, layered with sweatshirt or t-shirt it becomes your weekend outfit and it goes so well on skirts too!
ReplyDeleteI am also loving this whole embellished sweatshirt trend...oh ya and the bright coloured skinny ankle pants too.
Thank you Manasi for the great ideas in putting together various outfits from one basic item - the chambray shirt.
