It's the first week of spring, finally, and I couldn't be happier. I love spring, namely because I hate winter, but also because there's more to work with style wise. I won't lie, I don't make that much of an effort during winter. However, as soon as the snow begins to melt all my angst goes with it and the urge to look pretty quickly rises. I know many of us feel inspired during springtime to go shopping and step back into femininity. I started a thread on the mallvibes forum asking people what items were a must for their spring wardrobe and below is list of the common picks.
The trench coat
Obviously, this one made my list as well. Trench coats are always big during the spring season.They may be a different style or color that takes the spotlight, but it's always a spring must have. This year the focus is on the classic trench with 3/4 sleeves. I personally like long sleeves, but that's just because I have lanky arms. Regardless of the style, the trench coat is a definite must have, and lucky for you, the
In The Trenches Shop is stocked full of them.
Pastels
Light hues always become popular during springtime, as more people get away from the dark drab winter colors. This spring, lavender is a favorite among shoppers. Whether it's shoes, nail polish or a bag, it's a color that's finding it's way on people in some form or another. I'm all for it. I love purple, and any shade of it is pleasing to me.
Wedge Heels
I've never been the biggest fan of wedges, but apparently a lot of people are this season. They are easier to walk in at times and with all the different styles available this season, I'm sure there might be something to please even me.
Nautical
This is a trend I actually want to try. Nautical doesn't get enough attention, but there are so many ways to work it into your wardrobe. I would especially love a nautical swimsuit.
Flirty Spring Dress
An absolute must have is a spring dress. Once the snow melts, I can be seen exclusively in dresses and skirts. Skirts with pockets are still very big, and I doubt they'll be going anywhere, and dresses made from chiffon are very in this season, which makes me smile from ear to ear, since I love those types of dresses. The spring dress was on nearly every mallvibers list.
Leather Jacket
Besides the trench coat, the only other coat that excites me is the leather jacket. (well I actually love pea coats too). Leather jackets are great spring accessories. Not only do they add some edge to the girly flirty nature of spring, but they are very practical on those rainy days.
There's a lot of different trends to choose from this season, some I haven't even mentioned such as military, vintage, metallic; the possibilities to up your wardrobe for spring seems endless. I'm so happy spring has finally sprung and I can look good again.
