Spring Fashion Trends Under $30

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Auburn chapter.

With Spring in full swing, all our winter clothes have officially gone into storge until fall. If you’re anything like me, that means it’s time for a wardrobe clean out: getting rid of anything that doesn’t fit or is so old I can remember wearing it in middle school. Don’t just throw out your clothes, donate the stuf that’s in good condition (spring cleaning for your closet and your soul!).

So once your closet is basically empty, then comes the fun part: shopping! When you head to the mall, remember to buy what you actually need first so you can splurge later without regret. Here are some of the hottest spring/summer trends to keep in mind for your trip.

“I love rompers! They are my ultimate go to because I don’t have to coordinate anything but accessories. They accentuate my figure and they are almost always in cute floral patterns!”
