Spring Fashion Trends & How to Wear them.

Happy First Day of Spring!
Spring is such a happy season  and one of my favorite things about this season is all the fabulous color and the many different ways to wear it - clothes, shoes, makeup or accessories. You can have fun mixing color with pattern and textures, but at the end of the day make sure you stay true to your own style.
There are so many trends in fashion right now that sometimes it gets confusing so to simplify things for you, I went through some of my go-to websites, magazines and blogs and have picked out my favorite trends for spring and given you some ideas on how you can incorporate these in your daily wardrobe.
If this is still a daunting task for you, then I am always happy to help.
