Tips for Dressing in the Weird Spring Weather
5/17/2019
Spring is, for
sure, the most unpredictable season when it comes to weather. It can be
extremely hot at midday and then freezing as soon as the sun goes down; it can
be extremely sunny in the morning and pouring rain in the afternoon (actually
it is pouring rain as I'm writing this). This can make dressing quite a
challenge. However, I have collected some tips that will make getting dressed
in the morning a bit easier.
Layers Are
Essential
Aside from the
already difficult Spring Weather, there is another factor that makes layering a
key factor when it comes to getting dressed air conditioners and heating. Temperature
is very different in different places; it is extremely hot at my university but
for instance it is extremely cold at some stores and restaurant. For that
reason, being able to put on or take off extra layers of clothing is essential.
Wear a short-sleeved T-Shirt and a cardigan; or a shirt and a jumper over it so
that you can adjust the layers to the temperature.
Flat Shoes
go with everything
I find myself
wearing flats much more during Spring and Summer. I try not wear my boots as
much and I tend to wear flat shoes on my day to day basis (mainly because they
are more comfortable for university). I personally love loafers and ballet
flats (and now also sling-backs flats as well) the most. Sneakers are also a great
shoe option; my favourites at the moment are the Adidas Gazelle (I have them in
the nude shade) and my white High-Top Converse.
Second hand
clothing
This isn’t a
spring only tip but a tip that works all year round. Now that sustainability is
a big topic in the fashion world, second hand stores and online platforms are
gaining importance. I personally have an account in Vinted (you can check ithere and buy some of my clothes) where I sell some of the clothes I don't wear.
I also donate some of them to charity shops. All in all, I thing second hand
clothing will become a really important topic in fashion and I personally love
it as you can find some really good and unique pieces.
Change black
for white
I wear black
pants and jeans a lot during Winter. This year I am forcing myself to wear them
less during Spring and Summer and, for that reason, I have been wearing my
white jeans a lot. They go with every outfit (as black jeans do) but they make
your look much brighter, softer and Spring appropriate.
Jewellery to
shine bright
Now that more
skin is on show, you can really start wearing all of your favourite jewellery pieces.
I love rose gold jewellery the most and I wear my favourite pieces almost every
day. I also find myself wearing necklaces much more with my shirts and blouses
than with jumpers. Find your favourite pieces and wear them to make your outfits
a bit more special.
These are all
of my tips. What are yours? Let me know in the comments…
