Shopping for Spring - A Little Fluff for Your Wardrobe
I’m adding a few new pieces to my spring wardrobe this season and I’ve been looking around for things I really love! I have a trip to Bald Head Island coming up the end of April and I’m going to Los Angeles over my birthday (pinch me…I’m so excited), so I really want a few things that will work for those trips and also through the summer! As you know, my style is somewhat casual and I wear jeans more often than not, so the pieces I’ve included in this post are really casual with the exception of two gorgeous dresses!
Since Easter is almost here and Mother’s Day is right around the corner (not to mention my birthday), I think a new dress would be in order and since I don’t really wear dresses often for the most part in winter, by the time Spring gets here, I’m ready! Also, there seem to be so many more baby showers and weddings in the Spring, not to mention graduations so I’m sure I’m not the only one looking for dresses! I hope you find something you love! I will confess that I’ve already purchased a few of these pieces and if you read under the pictures, I’ll tell you which ones and also about the fit!
Our weather here has been a little strange with some really warm days and some freezing days, but that’s spring and I know it won’t be very long at all until the warm weather is here for a while and I’m ready! I always say I won’t complain when temps reach the high 90’s, and I always do, but I will say that I would rather be hot than cold any day! What about you?
Short Sleeve Peplum Swing Top
Anthropologie $88
This top is so easy and perfect with jeans or shorts! The color goes with everything (of course and it just looks so comfortable and effortless!
Striped Coatigan Sweater
Anthropologie $118
Red is a big color for spring and stripes are also perfect for spring so this sweater definitely made the cut for the post! It’s a relaxed lady jacket and so great with white jeans or as shown with regular denim!
Mother Denim High Rise Jeans
Anthropologie $278
Is it just me or are jeans hard right now? There are so many styles to choose from and every style doesn’t look good on every body! The pair above are on the list because I think they would be flattering on almost anyone (including me with my short legs and short waisted self). They’re not too high waisted and the wide leg is reasonable…I also like the wash!
Sleeveless Graphic Tee
Anthropologie $100
Very casual but I always love a graphic tee! I’m wanting to go to Paris so badly right now that I’m drawn to anything that remotely has to do with French culture and this tee is just too cute! I think it would be fun to cook in and just fun to throw on for a casual day!
Button Down Blouse
Anthropologie
This blouse from Mother is one they offered last year as well and I bought it in a solid blue. I wore it with high rise jeans so my stomach wasn’t showing and it’s plenty long when you wear it that way! It’s a fun take on a classic button down blouse. Pair it with sneakers for a great everyday look!
Flounce Midi Dress
Anthropologie
I’m including this dress in two color ways because I think it’s so pretty! It’s tailored and feminine at the same time and would be perfect for a wedding, graduation, bridal or baby shower or for anytime you need a great dress! I have not purchased this one, but strongly considering it in the green!
Flounce Midi Dress
Anthropologie
Pink Ankle Mid-Rise Flare Jeans
Anthropologie
Sometimes I want to wear jeans, but not blue jeans so these pinky (salmon) ones are just the thing! The color is great for spring and pretty neutral and they fit like a classic mid-rise jean! These are on their way to me so I can’t really tell you about fit, but they are Mother Denim so I would say that they run true-to-size. I ordered my regular size so I’ll let you know!
Long Sleeve Henley Blouse
Anthropologie
I ordered this blouse because I think it’s one I’ll wear over and over again! The color is so neutral and I love the wide cuff sleeves. It’s slightly cropped so easy to tuck in and I love the way color and pleats at the shoulders! I really think you can’t go wrong with this one!
Slim Kick Flare Jeans
Anthropologie
I also ordered these jeans and love them! They’re a little different and interesting with the patch on the leg, but great for spring and summer! I’ll loved them styled with a simple white tee and fun sandals!
Long Sleeve Peasant Button Down
Anthropologie
I love a peasant blouse and this one is so beautiful! The puff sleeves are puffed in all the right places, the floral print is so feminine and I love it styled with the green pants!
Tailored Vest
Veronica Beard
Another piece that I ordered! I haven’t worn it yet, but it’s going to be great over a blouse, or worn as is with jeans. I’m considering the matching pants because it will feel like a summer, not so structured suit for spring and summer.
Platform Tassel Loafer
Nordstrom
Love love love these shoes! They are so cute and selling fast! If you want them…don’t wait!
Pointelle V-Neck Sweater
Veronica Beard
I’m always cold in restaurants and love to have a sweater with sleeves! This one is an elevated basic that you’ll wear often and we still have a few cool days ahead. When we’re at the beach, I’ll often wear a long sleeve sweater with shorts…
Straight Leg Pant
Veronica Beard
Basic pants that are seasonless! These would be great with the yellow floral peasant top above!
Buckle Sandle
Veronica Beard
Birkenstocks but not…
Rattan Clutch
J. Crew
Cutest summer bag…affordable and holds all the essentials!
Linen Blazer
J. Crew
More and more, I like to wear blazers and this beautiful blue linen is so perfect for spring and summer!
I’m including a boutique below with everything in this post and a few extra things! What are you looking for this spring?
