Spring Style

Spring is all about bright patterns...
It's safe to say printed pants aren't going anywhere soon, so let's embrace our wild side from all angles. Feeling a more casual vibe? Go with a silky blue tank, a cozy ivory scarf, nude-toned sandals, a colorful army of friendship bracelets, and a slick carry-all bucket bag. If you're ready to dress up your printed look, opt for a collared silky dark top, cool cocktail rings, and metallic heels.

Work your Little White Dress... Put a deconstructed spin on a Spring-perfect LWD. The sliced asymmetric sides and subtle back cutout give it cool flair with a minimalist's touch. For daytime jaunts, add a bright satchel, two-toned flat sandals, and a geo-shaped necklace. And to transition seamlessly into your evening affairs, switch out your flats for geometric-print sandals and an exotic clutch.

Bring on the funk...
One-part sporty, one-part bold, and one-part quirky — this season's high-low hem is flirty, versatile, and easy to wear for any occasion. We love this red version for an extra dose of bright color and dramatic undertones; plus, the styling possibilities are endless. For an off-duty luxe look, pair this skirt with asymmetrical-strap sandals and a cool striped top. For an amped-up evening ensemble, keep the two-toned heels but add some height. Similarly, inject flirty details via a lace-infused top with sheer insets, chunky gold accessories, and a slick patent-leather clutch.
