With the warmth finally making an arrival, everyone is eager to pull out their best spring clothes for all occasions, whether it be class, darties, or a night out. Here’s a look at some of the trends making an appearance this season:

Lavender: While this color has always been a favorite among many, this season it is making a full come back. Lavender looks good on every skin tone, and is a great color for a sweater, dress, or every day tee. Below are a few examples of affordable ways to wear it:

Puffed Shoulders: Puffed sleeves can help to make a statement in your outfit, and looks great on shirts and dresses. It also adds a more feminine touch, and is great for parties during the day.

Neon For this trend, I had a harder time getting on board just because neon seems so bold; however, when matched with the right bottoms and for the right occasion, wearing neon is bound to bring in lots of compliments. The neon trend is huge right now, but like most bold trends, it’s going to fizzle out. To tackle that problem, here are some cheap ways to wear it while it’s still hot:

ZARA. $19.90.

Tie Dye This is by far the trend I am most excited about. I personally don’t think tie dye ever really went out of style, but if it did, it’s back now. What I love about tie dye is that it makes every outfit more fun. Below are some of my favorite tie dye pieces:
