Hello my loves!
I've been in a great mood recently and it's probably because flowers are blooming and days are getting longer! That only means one thing.. SPRING is almost here! Buut since I live in Southern Cali, it's basically been here (no such thing as winter in SoCal).
I guess you could say that I've caught the Spring Fever. Pretty pastels have been popping up everywhere and I can't wait to get my hands on some. Before I run out and splurge, I had to make sure I had all of the basics for spring. So here are some of my fave spring essentials to give you a jumpstart on the season!
1. | SUNDRESSES | You can bet that I'll be in a sundress the instant the weather warms up. Flirty sundresses just put in me in an amazing mood and get me all revved up for the warmer months to come. ☀☀
2. | SKIRTS | Mini, midi, maxi, I love 'em all! But I feel extra feminine and girly with all the pastels and this peach, pleated maxi is absolutely gorgeous. Maxis are great in the spring since they cover up my pasty winter legs until I work up that bronzed glow. ☀
3. | KNIT SWEATER |These are the perfect transition tops into the spring because they are light enough to keep you looking chic during the day, but warm enough to keep you comfy at night. You can basically wear them over anything, from dresses to jeans. ☀
4. | BOYFRIEND JEANS | Do these even need an explanation? These casual bottoms are a must in the spring because that add that perfect amount of coolness to any outfit. ☀
5. | SPF MOISTURIZER | Just because the sun isn't strong enough to burn you yet doesn't mean it's not doing damage. Daily moisturizer with SPF is a necessity for me year round, but spring means that I'll be spending more time outdoors and skin protection is a MUST. Always use SPF 15 and above! ☀
6. | CROSSBODY | You can definitely use these year round, but I find myself using heavier shoulder bags during the fall and winter seasons. So I opt for lighter and more convenient bags as I spend more time outdoors. ☀
7. | SUNNIES | Sunnier days = fabulous shades. ☀
8. | FLATS | It's finally time to give your feet a break from heavy boots and break out those comfy flats. They go with just about everything! Just slip 'em on and head out for a stroll in the sun. ☀
9. | DENIM JACKETS | Pop one of these babies over a pastel sundress and you're instantly chic. The days aren't warm enough for bare arms just yet, and these do just the trick to keep you looking fresh. ☀
10. |UMBRELLA | As the saying goes, April showers bring May flowers. Having a patterned umbrella handy is a necessity for those random spring rains. Plus they add brightness to gloomier days. ☀
11. | STRIPED TOPS | For whatever reason, I love the contrast between girly pastels and bold stripes. So I love having a striped top around to throw a little something to the mix. ☀

If you can't tell, I'm very excited for spring and this list could be waay longer. But I hope this helped some of you lovely ladies prepare for your spring wardrobes! Leave a comment if you think I missed anything, I would love to hear from you!
