Babydoll dresses

Ladies, I am loving the babydoll style that has been all over social media. Worn with heels, it is so regal, but for an everyday look that is simply adorable, just pair your dress with Air Forces or Converse. If you love the fairytale or boho aesthetic, a youthful babydoll dress is a necessity for your wardrobe.

Cutouts

This style has become a staple this year. I think of it as a spring look, but trendsetters were wearing it this winter. Having a cutout in an outfit is a subtle way to create a teen appeal. I like cutouts the most when they are in dresses, but they work in shirts and even the waistline of pants.

Ribbed knit pants

These garments tend to have a casual look but can be dressed up for a special occasion. I’m a sucker for anything that is both stylish and comfortable, so these are my dream pants. They are available in a variety of colors and fabrics. The majority of designers are making these pants with a flared bottom, which gives it a bit of southern charm, which I adore. If you want to be fun and fabulous this spring, this is an essential piece to have in your closet.

Square necklines

Square necklines accentuate the chest area and may even elongate the torso. I have so many dresses and shirts with this neckline because they fit perfectly. I also like this cut because it creates more room between the chest and face, so it keeps the attention on the face. It also opens the neck area for a statement jewelry piece.

Unfitted jeans

I’m the first person to gravitate towards a pair of skinny jeans. However, when I got my first pair of unfitted jeans, it was a total game-changer for me. Initially, I had the same concerns as everyone. I thought they’d look boxy and make my legs look shorter, but once I found my perfect fit, they actually did the opposite. Now I opt for unfitted jeans any chance I get. They’re comfortable, and they provide room to breathe.
