Having a spring break doesn’t mean you have to go anywhere, but you can still dress like you are! Whether you are in warm weather or spending your days off in the snow, I know you’re thinking about purchasing some new pieces. Below are some styled outfits for your warm or cool spring break.
One of my new year’s resolutions is to incorporate more color into my wardrobe.
Here is my attempt!
The text between my sister and I when we saw this collection preview yesterday morning are embarrassing. We are a bit too excited.
If you know me at all, you know I am an Aritzia lover. Aritzia is the ultimate store to get your elevated basics – which is all I wear. Any time there is a new release at the store my alarm is set because everything sells out so quickly. Everything.
Majority of my wardrobe is from Aritzia, so I would say I know most of these items to a tee. I could tell you my favorite things, but I could also tell you what’s worth the purchase from each collection. Below are my recommendations on what you need to buy from Aritzia’s TNA Spring 21 collection.
The sweater vest trend is still around. This season I am seeing more people ditching their oversized vest for a cropped one, as it can be worn on its own or layered with a turtleneck, matching sweats and sneakers.
A modern take on a classic Ralph Lauren sweater, this v neck knit is the perfect transition piece from winter to spring. Aritzia’s sweaters are unmatched, so I know this is going to be a must have.
More of a retro take on the OV Exercise dress, the Bedford Dress is perfect for running errands or tennis. Super easy to style and wear, ideal for warmer months coming up.
So simple, yet such a staple. As I said in the intro the basics from Aritzia last forever, as they are the best quality. I have multiple tanks from here and the cut of this one is a little different, so it will definitely make it into my basket tomorrow.
This legging is almost an identical dupe to the Lululemon Align legging but better. They are thicker, can hold up during a workout but are still perfect for lounging. They have been out for a while, but they have new colors like this blue dropping tomorrow.
These. Shorts. I cannot wait and want them in every color. I have the hi-rise 3″ sweat shorts and I wear them with everything. They come in a variety of colors so you don’t have to buy an exact matching sweatshirt to have the perfect matching set.
Whether you are ready for it or not… swimsuit season is almost here. If you are up north, you are probably dreaming and maybe even planning for a trip to the beach. If you live in the south – swimsuit season is already here. Yes, I am sunburned in January.
While there is nothing more I love than a good swimsuit, WHY have they gotten so expensive over the past few years? It can be so difficult to find a swimsuit in your price range, especially one that will last you more than one season. While Zaful and Shein sound like a great idea because the swimsuits are so cheap, they don’t even survive one round through the wash. As I have gotten older and become more educated on the fashion industry, I try my best to avoid purchasing from fast-fashion empires like Zaful and Shein. Being more conscious about where are purchasing your clothing helps the environment yourself! Why? Because your clothes will probably last longer.
Let me save you the trouble of searching the internet for the best bikinis – they are right here. AND they are sorted by price range.
As much as I don’t think so, it’s still winter. For some reason as soon as January hits I want to buy all of the spring and summer pieces. BUT, I live up north for most of the year, so shorts are out of the question until May. Whether you live in the freezing cold or not, coats are a necessity during the early months of the year. Dress these up, dress these down, here are some of the coats and jackets you still need this winter & spring season.
This is the ultimate puffer. Aritzia’s infamous Super Puff coat comes in many color, lengths, and is made for men and women. I have the Super Puff Midi Coat in red to spice up my very bland wardrobe and I could not love it more.
I don’t own this jacket, but it is my ultimate dream coat. With shearling making a huge comeback right now, this has just a peak of the material around the stitching of the coat. P.S., this won’t be the last Stand Studio coat you see in this post.
This fall and leading into this year the “shacket” look has bee all over Instagram. This shirt jacket combination is perfect if you live in a warmer climate and don’t need a down coat to keep you warm. This Boys Lie take on the shacket doubles as chic and comfortable – what more could you want?
Last year we saw plenty of western flair in cowboy boots, and I will never stop wearing them. But, now western-like style is being shown through clothing items like this fringe jacket. Fringe will be seen all over bags and other clothing items this year, so get ahead of the trend with this jacket from Revolve.
If you’re looking for anything oversized, The Frankie Shop is it. I am swooning over this puffer overcoat. The detachable belt allows you to cinch the waist, or remove it to maintain the oversized “Hailey Bieber” look you are going for.
Another warm(er) weather jacket. I love the look of an oversized leather jacket, and love the one of a cropped one even more. This very on trend brown jacket would be perfect to style with any pants, shorts, skirt, you name it. This is definitely on my shopping list and I may have to style this one too.
See, told you there would be more Stand Studio. This is such a unique coat and I am always so drawn to it. If you are someone who wears only neutral colors, jackets like this are the perfect thing to add life to your wardrobe.
I have been chasing this jacket since the moment I saw it on Instagram at the beginning of the season, but it has sold out. Everywhere. And now it is finally back in stock at ASOS. So RUN, don’t walk to purchase this before it sells out again. This is the perfect jacket to wear with a matching workout set – almost even better than jeans and a sweater.
This is a classic long work coat. The oversized fit allows you too pair it with bulky sweaters and sweatshirts with ease, or again just wear this as an oversized look. The grey goes with black or brown accessories so it is the perfect happy medium.
I couldn’t even count the amount of times I have reached for a zip up hoodie this break and don’t have one to grab. This dyed zip up from Cotton Citizen is perfect for any casual outfit for days you don’t want to do anything, but still look put together. This comes in multiple colors, but I personally love this combination of warm and cool colors.
YAY for fall and DOUBLE YAY for fall fashion. A couple weeks back I posted about what I thought was the backbone of fall fashion for this season. Some of the things I already had, and others were just items I loved. I have done some very unnecessary shopping over the past couple weeks for a collective mini haul to share with y’all. Everything will be linked and I am hoping to style these things soon!
My favorite ASOS sweater vest is sold out, but I linked one to Amazon in many colors.
This one size scarf top is sold out, but I have linked a similar top from Princess Polly.
Like many others, I have spent an embarrassing amount of time on TikTok since we began quarantine in March. I love the idea that everyone’s for you page is tailored to their liking as it works similarly to a live Instagram explore page. Very much like my explore page, most of the TikToks that come up are retail related. Whether that be a styling video, a haul or even a small business, fashion TikToks are what I love to consume and what many others love as well. Here are my top twelve fashion-related accounts I think you should follow right now.
