The Top 5 Spring Fashion Essentials
| Tweet |
Spring is a time for cleaning out that messy closet full of cashmere sweaters and wool skirts of seasons past. This also conveniently leaves a little extra space for one or two (or five) brand new editions to the old wardrobe. March through May is all about rebirth anyway, right? Read on for my top spring essentials, just in case you ever feel the need to take the credit card for a spin.
The Jumpsuit

The jumpsuit is a great foundation for a killer nighttime spring look. You know it’s time to give this ’70s staple a go when YSL puts it back on the runways. Choose a solid color with a cinched waist and play it up with your favorite pair of sandals, handbag and statement necklace.
Peplum Top

Peplums are a big trend this season. Although I’m not a huge fan of it on dresses or skirts, Jason Wu did a nice rendition of it in a top. Versatile, playful, pulled together – what else could you ask for in a spring essential?
Pleated Skirts

The pleated mini or midi skirt comes in all colors of the rainbow for spring 2012. Channel the ’50s vibes Miuccia Prada sent down the catwalk by pairing it with a leather jacket or keep it casual with a white tee and flat sandals.
Cap Toe Pumps

The cap toe pump is a twist on a classic started by none other than Mr. Marc Jacobs over at Louis Vuitton. Do it in patents, suede, metallic – whatever your fashionable little heart desires, my friend!
Floral Print Pants

If you’re feeling bold this spring, go for a floral printed pant. Peter Som perfected it on his runway and there have been plenty of graphic spinoffs on this standout piece.
