Top 5 Spring Accessories

Spring time is literally weeks away and with this odd 50 degree weather hitting Baltimore I’m getting more and more excited! I spend all day around clothing and surfing the web looking at different retailers selections. I decided to compile a list of my 5 favorite spring accessories that I need and have already shopped for! Hope this inspires some of your spring season shopping!

1. Color Tinted Sunglasses

These fun specs add a 90's steeze to any look and come in so many different frames. I personally am a fan of the yellow lenses with an aviator frame (not pictured below). You can find these at any Urban Outfitters or Forever 21.

 2. Jelly's

I know you're thinking Jelly's? Really? But I love them! I've actually been noticing them trending since last summer but this spring I’ve found them on a couple of different sites including americanapparel.com I feel like Jelly's can add a bit of spunk to any look! I suggest pairing them with a high-rise skinny and a fluorescent oversized tank.

 3. Mule Pumps

I haven’t always been the biggest fan of a sling back heel but for some reason they are doing something for me this season. I love the effortless vibe this shoe gives off and you'd be surprise how many ways you can wear these. Honestly I don’t see the masses hopping on this trend this season but if you’re someone who doesn’t mind standing out a bit this shoe is perfect for you.

 

 4. Fringe Bags

FRINGE FRINGE FRINGE! In my trend picks for spring 2014 fringe was one of my favorite trends and now I’m seeing it on everything and my favorite is on bags! There is nothing a chic/BOHO feel to any look. Fringe bags aren’t even so much a trend...more so a staple. I love the fact that color fringe is huge right now, not just the traditional brown/beige color. I say the more fringe the better!

 

5. Straw Hats

 

Straw hats are an essential piece for sunny weather but making them a more practical piece for your wardrobe before the summer is an option you may want to consider. Try pairing a straw hat with a simple pair of white skinny’s and long sleeved sky blue linen button down to give you a "beachy" look. Straw hats are a summer staple and are not going out of style anytime soon. Oh but stay away from straw FEDORAS. Fedoras are the worst style of hats ever! Never trust someone wearing a fedora! LOL :)
