Spring is basically here and it is time to bust out those clothes that were put away for the fall and winter seasons.
But are those clothes that were put away months ago still in style?
Odds are most of those clothes might be, but as the seasons change, so do the clothes. So, if anyone is trying to go on a shopping spree, here are some tips that might come in handy.
Everyone is entitled to their own sense of style. Something that might look great on one person might look horrible on the next. But that is the beauty in having a sense of style. It’s a chance for people to express themselves differently and to stand out from one another.
It has been documented that clothes from the past always seem to make a comeback in some type of way. High waisted pants, snapbacks, even overalls have found their way back into the 21st century.
“A lot of our fashion styles has been influenced by older fashion, whether it’s the ‘20s or even the ‘70s,” freshman biology major Betsy Comas said. “For this coming spring I expect for the styles to be more classic or old fashioned but added with a modern touch.”
Some clothes are best left in the past but there is nothing wrong with putting on a light denim jacket on a chilly night.
“You can never go wrong with a denim or leather jacket, it can definitely add some edginess to your outfit. Bell bottom jeans can stay dead though,” senior education major Laura Necci said.
But, do not be mad about that because designers like Michael Kors, Kanye West and even Kendall and Kylie Jenner have put their own spin on clothes that were hot back in the day. Designers like these have made it easy for people to have the option to dress up or down but yet still looking fashionable.
Many lines are working in fall sweaters and jackets and pairing them with core spring pieces. Expect to see sundresses and jackets throughout the spring season. Footwear is also important. Small ankle booties make the perfect addition to a weather-appropriate outfit. Now-a-days stores have made it so easy for men and women to shop for their everyday needs. Store like American Eagle, Urban Outfitters, Old Navy, etc. have both men and woman sections which have made a huge diference for retail.
It is always important to remember when shopping to stay true to oneself and never steer to what others want. To get more of an idea of what types of clothes to expect this spring head over to the BeYOUtiful Fashion Show this March or the Moda Del Vivo annual fasion show in April. Both events are held on campus to promote fashion and awareness about feeling great in your own skin.
As per every season, a smile is the greatest accessory.
