Spring has sprung, and UCSB Gauchos have taken note! Her Campus could not help but admire these lovely ladies and their trendy spring attire.

SPOTTED: “Comfy chic” is a must for collegiettes these days. Easily vamp up your style from a plain white shirt to a white tank with a fun design, like cute cutout straps. Pair that with sandals and colorful shorts, and you’re good to go!

 

SPOTTED: Brighten up your day with bold floral prints! Although florals have been in for a while now, they’re especially necessary for the spring. Add a cute crop top and your favorite accessories for a complete spring look.

 

SPOTTED: What is spring without pastels? Not only are you keeping the sun rays out, you’re also adding a stylish pop of color to your outfit with these mint sunnies.

 

SPOTTED: Bold prints are “totes adorbz,” but simplicity also factors into spring. From a flowy white top to white sneakers, this outfit underscores the revitalizing and fresh awakening of spring.

 

SPOTTED: If you’re struggling to match your top with your bottom, then don’t forget to check the dresses sections of your favorite store. From various patterns, simple whites, and different styles, there are bound to be dresses that you’ll love. A popular spring trend, as shown on this Gaucho, would be the tiered dresses, popularized by Brandy Melville and Free People.

UCSB

Rachel is a senior at UC Santa Barbara and studies Communication and Global Peace and Security. Rachel is from a small, beautiful town in southern California called Palos Verdes. However, Palos Verdes is just one of the many places Rachel has lived. Rachel spent her childhood moving and traveling all over the world, living in places such as Indianapolis, Indiana; Santiago, Chile; Vienna, Austria; and Orlando, Florida. Rachel has found her heart and her home in California, choosing to spend her college years in sunny Santa Barbara. However, Rachel continued her wanderlust when she studied abroad in Barcelona, Spain in Fall 2012. At UCSB, Rachel is an immensely dedicated and involved member of her sorority Kappa Kappa Gamma, where she held the positions of Panhellenic Delegate, Inter-Greek Counselor, Rho Gam, and a member of the Nominating Slate. Best Buddies, a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating opportunities for one-to-one friendships, integrated employment, and leadership development for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, is a passion of Rachel's, as she is their Social Media Coordinator as well as an active and proud member. As a member of the Lambda Pi Eta Communication Honors Society, Rachel is able to implement her prowess and affinity for communication and communication-related issues. When Rachel is not writing, participating in Kappa events, or volunteering, you can find her in the gym, on the soccer field, watching Modern Family, or cooking. Rachel's love for sports, food, and writing often times go hand-in-hand, as one may see in her weekly blogs. For the past two summers, Rachel has been freelance writing for the Los Angeles Times, and hopes to continue her career pursuit of journalism after she graduates. Rachel is elated to be a part of Her Campus's fabulous team and loves every moment of it!
