Some of the biggest trends to come down the pipe for Spring are, undoubtedly ruffles, oversized button down shirts, trouser socks, and layered fishnets. And it just so happens (totally not a coincidence at all) I’m wearing all three in today’s outfit post.
While the weather has been wildly all over the place lately, and since we were hit with not one but 3 snow storms in a row you might be thinking ahead to spring a lot sooner than you planned.
Given that we can’t do too much about the weather I thought I’d share some tips for how to incorporate some spring trends now!

Cue all the romantic and billowy garments, because whether it’s along your collar or dangling on your sleeve ruffles are definitely a huge trend for Spring. And while I’ve had this coat for a number of years, and it’s timeless and almost always my go-to coat when I want to feel dressed up. It just goes to show that if you invest in the right piece you can really make it stand the test of time.
Unrelated to spring trends, but equally exciting is my new liquid glitter phone case. I basically can’t stop playing with it lol The dancing glitter has become a very fun past time whenever I’m waiting or feeling particularly bored. This case is even more beautiful in real life (which never happens) and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. If you’re interested in grabbing one of these glitter cases for yourself be sure to pop over to Casetify they have a lot of fun options for all versions of iPhones.
Are pom poms still on trend for spring? haha actually who cares I’m so obsessed with this little bracelet my friend got me while she was traveling that I’m going to continue to wear it regardless. Doesn’t it look great with my new All Black DW? If you’re in the market for a new watch be sure to use the code SHORTPRESENTS to save 15%.
In addition to ruffles, trouser socks and fishnets are EVERYWHERE right now. Whether you wear them layered under your distressed jeans (as seen in this previous post) or under your favorite pumps be sure to have fun with this quirky trend. I found these socks at Forever 21, they were super inexpensive, so to me it’s a super low-risk way to play with this fun trend. The only trouble being, not losing one of them lol to avoid this I’ve been washing mine in a lingerie garment bag (so far I’ve been pretty successful lol).
I’m no stranger to menswear (hello loafers and trousers are my life), so you can imagine my excitement about the button down trend for Spring, but since it’s still pretty chilly over here on the East coast I decided to layer it over my new favorite cupcakes and cashmere turtleneck (similar). This turtle neck is so soft, and I love the fitted sleeves, it hits my hips at the perfect spot for layering something over top.
So if you’re anything like me and you’re longing for spring be sure to incorporate ruffles, trouser socks, and fishnets, and oversized button down shirts, and maybe together we can will Spring to come quicker lol
