2018 Spring trends are here!

While I love the layers and materials of fall fashion, there’s nothing like fresh spring trends. Etherial fabrics; soft colors; breezy shapes; it’s a transition that’s a welcomed one, all over the country. (Even in sunny Southern California, am I right?)

To Try: Spring Capsule Wardrobe

Ever heard of a capsule wardrobe? For some reason, it’s something I’m just learning about.
