Entering Spring? Here's How to Get Ready For Sunny Days

Winter is finally behind those living in the northern hemisphere, so we can look forward to beautiful spring days and late, light summer evenings.

You should be preparing to revamp your wardrobe for these exciting new seasons of fashion. Perhaps you’re thinking about saving money by relying on your wardrobe from last year but don’t do that. Instead, treat yourself, buying some fabulous fresh outfits. Wondering what type of outfits to buy? Don’t worry we’ve got you covered with some hot tips on the latest trends and styles that will be in fashion over the next two seasons.

Taking A Trip Back In Time

First, you might want to think about looking at a few vintage styles. Yes, the looks of the past are back in fashion this season including dresses that look like they came straight from the 1940’s. Floral dresses have been spotted on the catwalk once more with the delicate and quaint touch that you would expect. You’ll find them on sale from a number of different designers, and they really do look fabulous. They could make the perfect outfit for a beautiful spring day, a picnic or even a walk into work.

These aren’t the only outfits  that are a flash from the past either. You can get sundresses with the aesthetic from the time of flower power. In fact, you can find your favourite style of sundress online whether you want to bask in the beautiful designs of the past or try something a little more modern. If you’re going on holiday this year a sundress is a must. The light, breezy fabric will keep you cool, even in the hottest climates. There’s great patterns too such as a kaleidoscope style that looks awesome.

Bright And Beautiful

You might also want to think about buying some outfits that are going to make you stand out on the street. Neon bright colours and killer shades are going to look fantastic this season. You’re going to make an impression wearing some of the latest designer outfits that’s for sure, and you shouldn’t be afraid to mix and match bright colours. Don’t be afraid to clash either because this season, that’s kind of the point. Pinks, yellows and reds are all going to be worn this year in big bold blocks and don’t make the mistake of toning them down.

Of course, if you want something a little more minimalistic and subtle, you can think about opting for pastel colours. These will still look fantastic, and you’re going to find lots of outfits for this season that accentuate the beauty of the pastel shades. Long, lush dresses and gorgeous skirts are about to flood the stores so make sure you pick up a few select choices.

If you’re on the other end of the spectrum though and you’re desperate to stand out, you might want to think about purchasing a gorgeous yellow dress. We’re talking full-on yellow here that is guaranteed to make people stop and stare. Whether it’s a slim fit or a flowing, billowing beauty a yellow dress is a great pick for a spring or summer outfit.

Going Loud

We’ve already mentioned a few of the ways that you can stand out with your spring or summer wear, but there are other options too. Check out the designer labels this year, and you’ll see that the logos and brands on the clothes have been styled to look bold. Whether you’re wearing Gucci or Calvin Klein, expect to wear the logo loud and proud. But to be honest, you should be pleased about that. After all, if you’re wearing a designer label, you'd definitely want people to know. There’s no point buying a tee from CK if it’s just a plain white shirt. There’s great ways to dress up an outfit like this for summer too. Wear a long dress t-shirt,  add a Gucci belt with some heels and you have a fantastic summer outfit selection.

Speaking of belts, waist belts are in right now with big belts that catch the eye. If you’re feeling top heavy, this is a fantastic way to draw the gaze away from an area where your feeling a little self-conscious and to somewhere else that you are perhaps more proud of. There are plenty of different belt styles to choose from as well as ways to wear them. Use it around a guys shirt, get one on a jacket or just put it over a dress.

Forget Leggings And Sweatpants

It’s been a while, but formal fashion wear is finally making a come back this season. That means you can forget about the leggings and sweatpants and stop thinking about dressing so casual. This spring goes for sleek and sexy with a stunning pencil skirt. Available in a range of different styles, we think you’ll delighted by the possibilities this presents. You can wear a pencil skirt with a crop top and show a hint of midriff. Or match it with a beautiful pastel blazer. You can even experiment with different materials as well, finding the right choice for you. The styles on the market this year are longer-lined, and due to this, they are far more flattering for your figure. Pencil skirts are expected to be big this year and can be found from a range of different designer stores.

This could be the perfect formal, casual wear for around the office or out on the town, depending on the style you choose.

We hope you have fun with some of these fashionable ideas for the new season. While some fashion trends only fit the catwalk, we think these are the perfect way to revamp and refresh your seasonal wardrobe and wear.

Remember, don’t be afraid to choose your own style and ignore the trends completely. You never know when a great choice might completely change your sense of fashion and style, allowing you to stand out as truly unique. A new season is a perfect time to try a completely fresh, fantastic look.
