6 Easy Neutral Outfits for Spring

6 Easy Neutral Outfits for Spring

6 Easy Neutral Outfits for Spring

Hello pretty Ladies,

It’s no secret that I love Neutrals, and I can’t tell you how happy I am. Neutrals are a big trend this spring. A Neutral palette makes it easy to mix and match to create chic outfits with ease. So today, I am sharing 6 Easy Neutral Outfits for Spring with you.

You can easily get inspiration from these looks, try to think what you have in your closet that is similar, and create the outfit from what you may already have in your wardrobe. Of course, Adding a couple of new pieces to your wardrobe every season is fun. I provided the shopping links as well.

6 Easy Neutral Outfits for Spring

High-waisted, wide-leg jean looks great with the Spanx bodysuit. The fitted bodysuit helps balance the wide leg of the jean. Also, notice how the cropped Free people sweater is tapered at the waist, again adding balance. This is a great “rule” to follow when wearing a high waist and a wide leg.

Shop the Look Below:

 

6 Easy Neutral Outfits for Spring

A classic Spring a Summer look, White jeans, and a denim shirt. Again I am wearing the Spanx white bodysuit. It really is a great basic layering piece. I love good white jeans (I actually own several styles of white jeans). They are slightly cropped with a baby flair, great with a strappy sandal. This Denim Shirt HERE

Nothing says Spring like a jersey dress (this cami slip jersey dress is a deal at $15). A great way to dress it up and add some style is to layer with this year’s Spring trend =Faux Leather. I Found this fab faux leather shacket in Nola, and I knew it was a piece I would wear for years. This piece is so affordable under $50. Layering Neutrals adds texture and a richer feel. 

Note* These are a must-have shoe and have been a BEST seller for me for the last three weeks! So comfortable, and I have been wearing them on repeat! They look good with everything.

Here are a couple of my favorite pieces from last year that have been restocked! The Free people Dupe, white button-up $20 I purchased two of them last year because they’re that good! Another staple piece from last year brought back is the Maggie jean. These high-waisted distressed cropped jeans come in several colors and washes (I own at least 4 of them). I love pairing a classic preppy style or feminine look with the distressed.  Also restocked from last year is the Braided kitten heal and on SALE $38

The vest was huge this fall, and it works great for Spring. Just layer with Neutrals for a fresh look. 

Shop this Look below:

Classic all white linen layers over the Spanx bodysuit (again). White linen pants you’ll wear on repeat (can you believe these are the old navy pants?) A great tip to dress up basics, Add a great bag, shoes, and accessories. 

Shop the look below:

The Flaired jean-Risen jeans are $69, so affordable for great quality jeans. Super soft, great stretch (size down). I would normally suggest wearing a fitted top with flared jeans. Here’s the one exception, A Boho vibe allows for a little flowy, this top hits at the hip bone, which helps balance the wide bottom.  (Note my best selling shoe) I could have worn this shoe with every one of the outfits above. 

Shop the look below:

Day 3 Road Tripping Itinerary 🚗🌵🌴☀️🏜️ Our Last d Day 3 Road Tripping  Itinerary 🚗🌵🌴☀️🏜️

Our Last day and evening in Mesa,Az before heading to Palm Springs, Ca.

We started out with grabbing a coffee & a little walk, then heading to the pool. Our goal this trip was relaxing in the sun ☀️ poolside☀️🌴While enjoying a little late afternoon early evening easy entertaining and good food…

Late afternoon we headed out to the golf course & then later to go on a garden walk and check out a couple local nurseries, before heading to dinner . 

I love to see what grows in that area and learn a little. Plus it’s always beautiful 🌵🌺🌸🌵Did you know a good size catus is $2,000-5,000 and a decent size Palm tree starts at $7,500 to $15,000 and that was the sale prices.

We had a yummy Italian dinner at @pizzicatausa over looks  the painted mountain golf course. 

 Then we went on an evening stroll at the golf course found a bench by the pond and had a cocktail to watch the sun set🌅🌵🍷
Perfect way to end the day ✔️

Tomorrow morning we’re Off to Palm Springs, Ca. A 4 hour drive from Mesa.Az. 🌴🌺🚗☀️
