Spring is just around the corner and fashion is changing along with the season. I love spring. It’s perfect weather to wear whatever it is you want. It’s breezy enough to wear a light sweater and warm enough to start wearing sun dresses again.

According to Glamour Magazine’s Most Wearable Trends of Spring 2014: pastels colors, cropped jackets, collared button downs, and maxi skirts are what’s been showing up on run ways for this season.

While high-fashion trends trickle down to local department stores, it’s easy to be fashionable for spring. Cotton-On, Forever 21, H&M, Charlotte Russe, and Love Culture are affordable stores that are always keeping up with trends, and where you can find a new wardrobe for spring.

It’s also easy to incorporate old clothes with new clothes. Knit sweaters from winter can be thrown on over a cute sun dress in case it gets chilly. Also, a favorite cardigan is perfect for wearing over a romper or jumper to stay fashionable and adhere to the dreaded dress code. Lastly, a collared button up with rolled-up sleeves can look beachy and effortless when paired with shorts and some sandals.

Maxi skirts, denim jackets, and floral prints are my favorite items to wear in the Spring. Maxi skirts are always difficult to find for short girls, but once you find them they are perfect pieces to pair with almost any top. Denim jackets are a favorite of mine to wear over a crop top or dress. They are light but keep the chilly breeze away as well. Floral prints on any piece of clothing might seem a bit typical and cliché to love for the Spring, but they’re just so girly and effortless.

Guys’ spring fashion can be just as fun and easy. A lot of guys at tend to just go with the “sun’s out, guns out” method of dressing up during spring, and use it as an excuse to wear tank tops for the rest of the year. Tank tops are great for the warm weather, it’s good to change it up every once in awhile. My favorite fun trend for guys right now is Hawaiian tourist shirts. They’re colorful, effortless, and look great with a pair of sunglasses.

I think another thing that can make a guy’s look is a new haircut. Spring is a time for fresh starts, so a clean hair cut can make an entire outfit look even better. Moppy-looking long hair can be overwhelming and distract from a great style.

Spring is a time for new weather and new fashion. Whether you’re a girl or guy, spring fashion can be fun and easy for everyone.
