Pastels are always in for Spring, it's a given. They're a definite 180 from the dark colors that dominate Autumn and Winter, and they epitomize the colors that Spring blossoms. I opted for a pastel pink pleated maxi skirt, to cover those legs in the chilly Spring weather. I paired the maxi skirt with a long sleeve chiffon blouse and a trench coat for protection from the inevitable Spring showers. I finished the look off by adding some plain black Chelsea boots and a small structured handbag in black.
Cropped jackets were seen all over the runway this season, and this faux fur one from River Island is perfect for keeping you warm during early Spring. In conjunction with the cropped jacket, I decided on an oxblood skater dress, to make the pink of the jacket pop. I belted it with a basic black belt, and sheer tights, and finished it off with coordinated flats. Oxblood is a fall color, but adding some spring elements, like the pink cropped jacket, it lightens the look up.
Color blocking has been in for quite a while now, and the Spring runway was full of colorblocked blouses. I chose to pair this basic color blocked blouse with high waisted Joni jeans from Topshop, and a colorful bomber jacket. I topped it off with a cream satchel, oversized sunglasses and oxfords, to play with the femininity of the blouse. Though red isn't a Spring color, it looks at home with the cream accents, and the black blouse really accentuates the bomber.
Lace is the quintessential Spring texture. It's feminine and demure, and usually it's in pastel shades. I decided to pair this lace blouse with a tea length skirt, and collarless coat, both of which are Spring trends. The skirt hits just below the knee, but higher than a midi skirt, so you can show some skin while still maintain your warmth. The coat is a unique camel color and design and will not only keep you warm, but it brings a vintage feel to your look. A pair of slingback heels and you're good to go!
In some states and countries, Spring is a warm month and therefore, they can totally wear the trends without freezing to death. They're the lucky ones.
Are this season's trends permissible in your climate? What's your favorite Spring trend?

Love this! I'm working on a post as we speak about scarves as a survival tool for early spring. All of the bloggers prancing around in mini skirts and sandals in NYC this time of year drive me crazy!
