Last weekend, I was in the mall shopping and every store that I walked into had completely flipped their displays to have spring clothing. All the fabrics were light and airy, the patterns and colors were getting brighter, and it had me dreaming of warmer days. Despite the snow day I had yesterday, I am trying my best to keep up the positive mentality and will spring to come faster than ever. I am more excited than ever to break out my warm weather clothing, KonMari the heck out of my old pieces, and add some new things to the mix.
One thing about me is that I try really hard not to shop on a frequent basis and try to adopt a seasonal mindset when it comes to buying new clothes. I'll make the occasional trip if I want a new item for an event or function, but for the most part, I'm a 4x-a-year kind of girl. The major downside I've found with this shopping pattern is that when I do find a piece that I love, I wear it quite literally to death until I never want to see it again. I know that every year come spring, I will reach for the same few items like my white blouses, lighter wash jeans, and my pink loafers. After a while, I try to update these basics in my wardrobe because I know that I will get my wear's worth out of them. Last year, I bought an eyelet Madewell blouse that I love and wear to pieces, which is why I'm linking a similar option below (and in the image above). I also love updating my jeans collection since I wear jeans on an almost-daily basis and including fun statement earrings since that is my go-to form of jewelry when I want to dress up an outfit.
This year, I can't stay away from all the florals, gingham, and pastels! I'm eager to incorporate some color back into my wardrobe after a winter full of my usual rotation of turtlenecks in the neutral family. My dream outfit for spring is literally a white blouse with a pair of light- or mid-wash jeans, slides and an accessory like big earrings or a fun hair scarf. What everyday spring uniform are you dreaming of this year?
