STYLE ADVICE: Spring Styles You Need To Try

February 9th, 2017 at 2:00am

If there’s one thing to know about Georgia weather, it’s that it is almost always unpredictable. For us fashion lovers, it can be difficult dressing both practical and stylish when one day it feels like summer and the next it’s nearly freezing. This University of Georgia freshman Fashionista wears a comfortable, fashionable look perfect for the days when it’s feeling sunny and 75 degrees.

You don’t have to have your nose buried in a fashion magazine to know that chokers are everywhere. Whether it’s paired with a casual daytime look or a night out with the girls, this simple accessory can add amazing detail. I am loving this Fashionista’s black lace choker because it adds some edge to her girly outfit. It is important to think about contrasting styles, especially with accessories, when putting together a look to add dimension. What’s great about chokers is that they are very versatile. Skinny, fat, leather, or suede, these necklaces come in a variety of different designs and textures that work with everyone’s sense of style. If you are looking to add some detail to your next look, think about a choker in a different texture or color to add a subtle pop.

If there is one style I’ve loved for awhile it’s off-the-shoulder tops because they can really add something special to your typical T-shirt and jeans look. Showing some skin but in a sophisticated way is the perfect combination for both day and night and this Fashionista’s white lace off-the-shoulder top is a great staple to have in your spring wardrobe. Lace is a classic material that has made a big comeback recently. Try looking for a lace top in a darker color or pairing it with a cool leather jacket to add some edge if that’s more your style.

Shorts are a spring must-have for everybody, but these adorable pleated red shorts pictured take her look to a whole new level. What I love about these is that they are flowy but have some shape—a look that is flattering on nearly every body type. Everybody loves their denim cutoffs, but colorful pleated shorts such as these can really add style and sophistication to your spring wardrobe. If you’re in the mood to wear your favorite T-shirt, think about adding some stylish shorts to really elevate your look.

This Fashionista’s entire look came from American Threads right here in Athens, GA. I encourage all of you to explore your local boutiques this spring to find looks that can really set you apart!
