I was at Banana Republic this weekend and their spring clothes were already out. There is quite a bit of pretty spring colours, including orange/salmon to be seen (I was not surprised by this, since I saw quite a bit of that colour at LG Fashion Week in October). It's a good change from the drabby dark colours of winter, though it would be a while before I can wear any of it, since the weather has been very cold as of late.
Of course, you can bring some spring in to your winter wardrobe by spicing up your mostly dark-coloured winter wardrobe (like the dress above) with something colourful (which reminds me: If you haven't signed up for Petite Fashion Challenge #5, click here!)...
Suggested items:
And if you want to be a little more sophisticated.....
Ahhhhh....scarves. So few young women wear them these days! Personally, I like long flowy scarves in bold colours as they really do pop when paired with dark colours!
Something like this gold Bebe belt can also bring some shine into basic black or navy.
And who can forget shoes? If you're a conservative shoe-wearer, why not be a little more daring and wear something other than black, charcoal or dark brown in the winter?
I think these shoes can look AMAZING with a darker-coloured dress and dark tights and maybe some sort of flowy scarf! By the way, I suggest that these shoes stay in the office or indoors if you live in a snowy part of the world. They are not meant to be worn in the snow!
