11 Spring Fashion Trends You’ll Love!

One of the things I love about the season change is the NEW trends that can give your wardrobe a little refresh. It doesn’t mean you have to go out and purchases a whole new wardrobe. It means you can add some fun new pieces to what you already own to give the pieces a new FRESH look. Isn’t that one of the things we love about Spring? FRESH

Although several trends are happening this Spring, I picked 11 Spring Fashion Trends you’ll love and be able to easily add into your wardrobe without spending a lot of money. Plus a couple of easy tweaks you can incorporate to be right on-trend.

11 Spring Fashion Trends:

  1. Boho Home Decor
  2. Babydoll Dresses
  3. Shirt Dresses
  4. Western-Inspired
  5. Straight-Leg Jeans
  6. Chunky Gold Links
  7. Pearls
  8. Studded
  9. High waisted Jeans
  10. Middle Part
  11. Crocodile Accessories

11 Spring Fashion Trends You'll Love

#9. Is featured HERE. High-waisted denim with a wide leg and distressed detail. This Maggie Mae jean by Free People is one of my ALL time favorite jeans. I own it in every wash. (size up due to the high waist) Easy to wear and to style.

    This is one piece I would suggest you grab to give your Spring wardrobe a refresh. If white isn’t your thing, You can grab them in Denim and black denim.

#8. Stud details= Featured on the bow sandals is a cute monochromatic stud detail I adore. These popular Valentino sandals are a splurge, which I linked below. I have had a couple of seasons and adore them. I felt they were worth the Splurge, knowing I would wear them for several seasons, and the stud detail is very subtle. 

Shop dupes Below:

#3. & #4. Killing Two birds with one stone… The shirt dress looks great on every figure. It is easy to style, can also be worn as a duster. I love it hides my tummy (my trouble area). Shop my Hat HERE

This Shirtdress also incorporates trend #4  Western-inspired with western details in the pockets detailing and buttons. The western-inspired is very easy to achieve by adding a cowboy hat, a plaid button-up, or simple western details, as shown above. 

Show the look below:

 

11 Spring Fashion Trends You'll Love

Here are a couple of subtle & easy Spring trends you can add to your Spring wardrobe…. Chunky Gold Chainlink details (shown on the bag)  Pearls are ALL the rage this Spring (detail on the Sunglasses)  Studded detail shown on the sandal. The Shirt Dress is making a big statement, and this one also incorporates the little western detail on the pockets. Let’s not forget about the middle part,  Have been wearing a Middle part since I grew out my bangs several years ago. But this year, it’s been talked about a ton by the younger generation! they’re saying, ” You show your age with a side part and skinny jeans!” (this is a whole other subject, and I’ll go there another time!) Insert laughter!

Layered over the Shirtdress to show another way to style it is the Eyelet duster. Eyelet fabric is popping up everywhere this Spring, from Swimsuits, dresses, and denim detail.

Although this look has several Spring trends happening at once… It doesn’t scream TRENDY or overdone…. It’s ALL in how you bring the Small details together to pull the overall look off. Allowing you to be on-trend at any age.

I also love these little trendy Spring details; they won’t break the bank and can be added to your own piece. Shop this look HERE

#6. Chunky Gold Links

#7. Pearls

#8. Studded detail

#3 Shirtdress: I layered it with another trend Eyelet, shown here with an eyelet duster (I didn’t list this trend)

#10. Middle part11 Spring Fashion Trends You'll Love

#5 The straight leg jean… Don’t worry; the Skinny jean isn’t gone! It’s just taking a back seat to the Straight leg jean. Here I am wearing the Straight-leg jean in a mid-rise and a frayed cropped hem. I prefer the mid-rise to the high rise, as it hit me better on my body as I don’t have a waist and my trouble area is my middle. In high-rise denim, you’ll need to go up a full size, and it really does shorten my already shorter torso. And let’s Talk REAL…I don’t love what a high rise does to my already flat butt:(!

All my height comes in my legs. I am 5’9 1/2  for reference and wear a size 6 to 8, depending on the jean. In this case, it’s the brand Level 99 denim, and these are a size 28 (let’s face it, my size also depends on my fluctuating weight of 10-15 pounds!) THANKS, Midlife, and menopause!

A couple of reasons it’s great to own a straight leg. They look great with the on-trend clog sandals. As skinny jeans could give you that elf effect 🙂 ( Insert Giggle), They really flatter the leg and add a longer leg appearance. And they look great with tops tucked in to show off your waist! Can I say, “Pull out your BELTS!” 

Shop some of My FAVORITE mid-rise jeans below:

By some of my personal brand favorites. These are brand favorites because they fit so many body types, have great stretch, wear fab. These are some of my go-to jeans for styling clients and what I purchase. Brands like Kut from the Kloth, Not Your Daughters Jeans, Madewell, and Level 99. (some say HIGH rise but trust me, I tried on or own, and they are ALL mid-rise on me)

Strong Women Rise… Strong Women Win… She’s HER own Strong Women Rise… Strong Women Win… She’s HER own Force from within….

I love that❤️ 

I feel so many Women, don’t give themselves enough credit…

As Moms, Wives, business owners, hard workers and the “doers”
They’re doing it all and carrying the weight …most of the time with a smile, and hiding a worry, a weakness or guilt!

Remember you are STRONG.. you are a force … and it’s ok to not to give a dam what others think… 

And sometimes… it’s ok not to Give a  dam “what’s for dinner!”😉🥰
Or that the laundry didn’t get done, or that your Christmas Tree isn’t up after Halloween…

Sometimes the “give a dam” can turn back on tomorrow 😉❤️

Happy November pretty ladies, remember as we head into a “moms” busiest season… it’s important to take care of yourself, breathe and know when to turn on/off your “give a dam switch” 😉❤️🥰
