Spring Transition Pieces

I thought it would be fun to do a post all about clothing items that I'll be utilizing a bunch as we transition into spring & start getting some warmer weather more consistently! Keep scrolling to see some great options to add to your wardrobe or get new ideas on how to shop your own closet.

long sleeves...

Y'all know I love me a good black + white striped shirt so of course this thin knitted one is right up my alley & perfect for transitioning into spring. Here I've paired it with my favorite Madewell jeans & leopard sandals, but it looks great front-tucked into a pair of denim shorts as well! Because of the knitted material, it's pretty light & honestly doesn't even feel like a sweater.

I've been loving the leopard trend that really exploded this year. It's been fun to play around with the different styles & see how different brands incorporate it into their clothing lines. I love this thin muted leopard hoodie from Amazon. It's really casual & so easy to throw on with a pair of black denim shorts & you're out the door.

Okay, if this outfit doesn't scream "I belong near a beach" then I don't know what does! How fun is this cream & choral thick striped top? It's pretty boxy so it looks great front-tucked into some denim shorts. Such an easy go-to piece for this spring.

Lol you guys have probably already seen me share this button-up henley because I already have a bunch of times, but that's because it's that awesome & I love it that much! Wanted to share here how easily it can be dressed up or down. It's so soft & flowy that you'll feel comfortable no matter how you wear it.

If you've got a little bit of OCD like me then you probably noticed that this pic is backwards compared to all of the others. That's because I had to flip it so that you could read this super cute tee! I love the bright colors for spring. Plus, it's only $10 right now & they have a bunch of other designs as well!

I got this heather white tee from Old Navy during one of their recent sale days. It was only available in a medium so I thought I might as well give it a try because you never know if it'll end up being cute just a little bit oversized & I think this one fits that idea perfectly! It's sooo soft & looks great with a pair of distressed jeans (also from Old Navy) or even leggings. It's long enough to cover the booty so that's a huge plus for me! Also, it's only $10 right now!! The distressed jeans have a layer of fabric underneath which is actually really nice & I think makes them look not-so-distressed which I like.

dresses / skirts / jumpsuits / overalls...

I'm always down to add a simple black dress to my wardrobe, especially one that's this soft & comfy! It has a v-neck, but it's not too deep at all so you won't be showing too much off. & It has almost a tiered look to it which sets it aside from other black t-shirt dresses.

One word for this skirt: DAAAHH-LING. I love how you can change the shirt up & it completely changes the outfit! Also, here's a tip for achieving the knotted look with your t-shirts. Sometimes they're not roomie enough to actually make a knot, so what I do is use a clear elastic ponytail & wrap that around a little bunch of the t-shirt, then fan out the knot so you can't see the elastic ponytail. So easy & it doesn't stretch out your shirt!

I'm a big fan of midi skirts because they actually fit me! I've never really been able to pull of maxi skirts or maxi dresses because I'm so short. This one is red with white polka dots & it comes in seven other colors as well! You could definitely wear a denim jacket with this outfit during the fall months later on.

I've never been a huge fan of overalls, but that's probably because I've never owned a pair like this. Holy moly. These are amazing. So soft & comfy! Truly feels like you're wearing a comfy pair of shorts! The straps are functional so you can tie them as loose or as tight as you need, plus they're cute & give a very girly feel to the outfit. Love how it's easily paired with a long sleeve or a tank (stripes of course).

Do I even need to say anything about this dress? I think it speaks for itself! So cute & effortless. I love the little pops of color throughout the flowers on the dress. Just wearing it makes me ready for spring to fully hit! They offer nine other color options / styles as well.

Y'all. This black jumpsuit is everything I didn't know I needed. How stinkin' cute! It looks great with a cardigan or denim jacket for those chillier days, or if you're like me & work in a freezing school lol (do we really need AC on already?!). So soft & has a functional drawstring at the waist so you can decide how fitted you'd like it to be.
