If you’re anything like me, the transition from winter to spring is the hardest thing to dress for–– freezing in the morning then warm in the afternoon?! Being back on campus, I want to look put together when I decide to go out, but not put that much effort in. Then the weather changes just to throw another loop in there! This article is just as much for me as it is for you all! Let’s get to it!

Sweats and a Sweater

This outfit template has been my go-to!! To complete this outfit you need: sweatpants (literally from anywhere–– my favorites are from Walmart!), a cropped sweater, sneakers, and a cute bralette underneath! I love the contrast of the baggy sweatpants to the more fitted sweater *chef’s kiss*! To make this outfit more springy, you can add different colored cropped sweaters or some cute flowery earrings! 

Causal

Love this outfit! I personally love how clean and put together it looks with minimal articles of clothing. For this outfit you’d need: a more fitted tank top, high-waisted straight leg jeans (LOVE), an oversized cardigan, and sneakers! I also HAVE to mention straight leg jeans–– they’ve been taking over my life more and more and I love it. Once again, we have the contrast of loose and tighter, as well as a tad of monochrome going on! The white-on-white portion could easily be swapped out for a ~matcha green~ or even lavender for more Spring vibes! This outfit also aids in the weather madness–– in the morning, keep the sweater on, and the afternoon rock the one shoulder look!

Checkered pants 

This is definitely up there on my favorites list–– loving the more formal-feel but with minimal work! All you need are some fun pants, basic tee, and accent jacket! I’ve been wearing this one quite a bit. You can switch in and out colors and pants, while maintaining the basic template!

These are some good ideas to get you started on your spring outfits, and deal with that weather that likes to keep us on our toes!
