STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Pastels

Neutral colors, such as nude, olive, black and white, were super trendy for this past fall and winter. Although neutrals are still very trendy for spring, pastel colors seem to be one of the hottest color trends of the season.

Although it’s springtime it still gets a little chilly out, so this Fashionista opted for a gray coat over her faux suede dress. The gray color of the coat helped to balance the pastel color of her dress. In addition, she added some knee-high socks with her chestnut colored boots for extra warmth. Adding knee-high socks with tall boots is also a great way to add more detail to your outfit. The scalloped hemline of the dress also adds some interesting detail to the look, so you don’t need to add too much in the way of accessories.

For accessories, she kept with the color scheme and added a simple white watch and a bracelet on each wrist. Adding a statement necklace, like this Fashionista did, is also great because it gives your outfit an extra pop.

This Fashionista’s outfit is a great way to transition from winter to spring. Once it gets a little warmer out, you could swap out the boots and knee-high socks for a cute sandal or chunky heel. You could also pair this look with a lightweight trench coat or a jean jacket.
