Pure and Natural Spring

   Everywhere I look I see rocker chic; Spring seems like the perfect time to soften it up!  This Spring brings...sigh... the ability to wear white pants and not get the glare.  Instead of getting a double take for breaking the so-called fashion rules, hook that second glance by wearing a sheet of perfection.
   Yes ladies, it's time to keep it simple and chic; It's time to wear the white that has been crying for your attention throughout the winter!  However, do not completely lose that rocker appeal.  Destroyed white skinny jeans are HUGE this year.  Pull on a pair from ae.com for $49.50 or stop by pacsun.com for the mid range price of $42.50.  If you are looking to spend less cash, jcpenny.com has shredded white skinny jeans for $17.99.  Not quite succeed in that New Year's resolution of losing 15 pounds?  Gap offers a pair for a low $30, which are a little on the looser side.  American Eagle Outfitters will have white boy fit jeans by early April. The boy fit is a relaxed fit, besides the yoga pant, it's the closest thing to sweats!
  Spending some serious loot on a pair of white jeans is half the battle.  Most women are not sure what goes with white, even though that seems proposterous.  Many think that the only article of clothing to go with the color is a denim jacket.  Swipe that jacket idea from your mind and take my advice, ADD MORE WHITE!  No other color reflects the rays, of the out of hiding sun, better than white.  Think to yourself, the recent return from a tropical spring break bronzed your skin and created the best canvas for layers of the purest color.  Well, it was either a vacation or the month-long membership to the tanner.
   Wondering how all white won't create the plain Jane look?  Take a look at some options for the upper half.  Instead of a blank tee, consider embellished collars or crisp creases.  You could pair your AE skinnys with a nail-studded tee, or even add a collared button-up with cuffed sleeves.  Pour some time into exploring your many options.

   Check out the studded tank shown above at ae.com for only $19.50!  Also, American Eagle has a woven with cute penny pocket details for a little over $30.  The bib top shown to the left can be found at Banana Republic for $49.50, if you are into dressing up those whites!  Express offers a cotton stretch tee with rock star studs that trace the collar bone, which is $29.50.  Whichever top you choose make sure you are in love with it, otherwise you may never form that match made in heaven.

    This entire look of pure perfection will not result in a standing ovation unless it is topped off with eye-catching accessories.  Add some flare with a bronze metallic belt, shiny silver bangles, and textured shoes.  Go for the natural look by including leafy earrings and suede belts or shoes with tassels.  The outfit will not be unique unless you put yourself in it.    If you're an animal lover add some prints!  Make the outfit all about you!  Here is a little something for inspiration before you go on your way!  My sister and I created this outfit for a girls night out.  You could substitute the heels for studded gladiator sandals, or switch the metallics out for something femme and floral!  Remember, fashion is anywhere we are, whether that is in the bright colored city signs, or within the greens and florals of a backyard garden.  Fashion is everywhere!
