It’s that in between weather, of kind of warm and kind of cold at the same time. And the biggest mistake you can make is going to buy clothes that you can transition into summer because then you’ll hardly get any wear out of them. Take a cue from the runway and try out some of Spring 2016’s biggest trends like off-the-shoulder tops and dresses, the re-done white shirt, sexy sequins and a fresh take on stripes. Scroll down to shop our favorites below.

Sexy Sequins

Prabal Gurung Spring 2016

UntitledWhen I think of sequins I think of my prom dress that was Beyonce/Tina Turner inspired. Needless to say, it was a disaster but there are plenty of ways to wear sequins and not look like a caricature. Take a hint from Prabal Gurung’s sexy sequin dresses that either had low v-neck cuts or high slits on the side to keep it fresh.

UntitledOff-The-Shoulder

Open shoulders and off-the-shoulder crop tops are still having a moment on and off the runway. And since they’re so popular they’re now coming out in different textures and materials so you can wear them in spring and summer. It’s an easy way to show a little skin when you have to go work or a meeting but plan on meeting a hot date for drinks later on.

UntitledShirting

We love a good trend borrowed from the boys, and a modern update to the white collared shirt is just what we were looking for. Plain white, tucked-in shirts are a snooze, so it’s nice to see a classic style with a cool update. You can basically wear with anything—from jeans, leggings, and shorts aka effortlessly chic.

Untitled2222Stripes

No more of that boring black and white striped pattern that designers keep trying to give to curvy women because they think it will make you look slimmer! Spring is all about the rainbow stripes in bright colors that are perfect for those sunny and breezy days.
