Transitioning into Spring with Cuffed Denim

Tuesday, March 6, 2012

[1] cuffed denim

As the weather gets warmer (keep 'em fingers crossed), I'm beginning to transition my wardrobe into the next season. In a previous post, I raved about the brights and neons - must haves for spring. No worries, if you haven't picked up a pair of cobalt blue pants or red trousers! Another trend I'm currently digging is one that you don't have to go spending a dime. Spruce up an outfit by cuffing a pair of your favorite skinnys. Dark wash, skinny jeans - cuffed at the bottom and paired with ballet flats or pumps can dress up or down your outfit. Comfy casual or chic, roll' em up. 

Below are some of my favorite ways to wear cuffed denim [inspired by Pinterest]:

[2] cuffed bright blue denim, nude pumps, oversized belt, boyfriend v-neck tee,
black blazer and a bright clutch; comfy and perfect for casual fridays
[3] cuffed skinnys for date night
paired with ruby red pointed-toe patent pumps,
polka-dotted silk button-up blouse and an embellished clutch

[4] cuffed and paired with oxfords
ideal upper half of outfit
oversized creme oxford, belted in a knot
oversized cable-knit cardigan and slouchy satchel
[5] distressed, boyfriend fit denim
casual, striped knit sweater with
an over-the-shoulder vintage crossbody
pops of purple, T-strapped pumps

Bust a Bright.

March is finally here! It's time to trade some of those heavy, down-puffer jackets for bright colored denims, chiffon blouses and a pair of wedges.

To kick-off spring, here are 10 of my favorite 2012 looks inspired by my Style Me Pretty pinterest board:
[1] bright cobalt blue with big bird yellow, primary colors
[2] chambray shirt and pink denim, bright colored denim is all the rage
pink, reds, kelly green and bright blue... I want them all.
                                          
[3] sock buns, the knot, casual and chic

[5] hot pink, scallop edged, high-waisted shorts


[6] bright yellow, chiffon, pleated maxi skirt
Unfortunately, Seattle weather makes it hard for us fashionistas to sport the latest looks such as scallop-edged shorts and flowy chiffon maxis.

In the meantime while we wait for some sunshine, cute ways to transition the wardrobe include mixing up neon accessories with that fur vest, pairing bright colored jeans with a neutral turtleneck and cardi combo... and my favorite, a floral print skirt with a chunky oversized knit sweater, belted and finished with tights and boots.

Check out these great looks for ways to transition into spring:
[7] bright crewneck sweater with fur and layered necklaces
classy, trendy and embraces the season

[8] all-season nautical stripes with multi-colored scarf
brush-stroke washed scarves give a soft look to the bold, dark stripes

[9] rolled up denim, nude pumps, bright yellow button up with camel tweed jacket
classic and chic, work attire, saturday afternoon, let's grab lunch outfit

[10] coral lips, red lips, pink lips
brightly colored lips are all the rage. loves.
another reason why I just absolutely adore lipstick.
