I'm so excited for Spring and Summer trends this year that I wanted to put together my ultimate guide for navigating your own wardrobe. It's always so tempting to go out and buy alllll the new things but it's not necessary! This is especially true if you're like me and begin to feel overwhelmed by what you see your favorite bloggers wearing on Instagram. Now is the time to re-think your style, clean out items that don't work for you anymore for whatever reason, make a wishlist of things you want to add, and even style outfits for any upcoming events.
Hopefully you have jumped on the bandwagon of "buying less, choosing wisely" so that you can incorporate some new, fresh pieces that excite you, but still have a solid foundation of basics that you can pull from as well. Camisoles, cardigans, kimonos, turquoise jewelry, denim, moto jackets, airy skirts, tie-waist dresses, and feminine prints are all on my radar right now.
Remember, there's no need to go crazy buying everything you love all at once! When you put your list together, prioritize and keep an eye on sales. Also, buy the things you'll need first and save other things for later once the weather really warms up.

Love, love, love the flattering dresses I'm seeing! Wrap styles look fabulous on all body types.
The only three pairs of shoes you'll need! Throw in some metallic or neutral flat sandals (or rose gold flip-flops in my case) and you're good to go from work to play, day to night.

I know straw bags are all the rage, but don't forget about other pretty, practical styles. A simple crossbody or a large tote are still relevant.
I personally love bathing suits in vibrant shades and prints. The more colorful, the better! Don't be afraid to stand out, even if you're like me and often dread bathing suit season.
I hope this little guide is helpful in some way, and it also illustrates what you'll be seeing me wearing for the next few months. Happy Monday! Linking up with Caryl & Rachelle
More options to consider...
I love your style and how you shop. I'm so excited for this season and love wearing my old spring/summer and new clothes.

I love your spring picks, and good for you for shopping your closet and not the stores! It's so easy to want to jump on to every new trend, even when we probably already have something that works in our closets.
