Spring Trends!

Posted on 08:19 by smith
Bonjour!

Spring is finally here! And I couldn't be happier! The dark, cold winter is passing, and now it's time for sunshine and flowers (... and that dreaded hay fever... Which is never any fun.) But what I am most excited about this spring is the fashion trends. From bronzed makeup to pastel hues, I am loving all the trends this season. I have paciently waiting ages to bust out my new looks. Let's take a look at some ways to make these trends come to life!

Makeup

A big trend popping up for this spring is a bronzed look! I love this trend because anyone can pull it off. Bronze looks amazing on all skin tones, and can make any eye color pop! 

For eyes, I love to use the Maybelline Bronze Haze eyeshadow palette. The pigmentation with Maybelline eyeshadows are incredible and they last all day. I love to use the lightest color as a highlight under my eyebrows and in the corners of my eyes to make them appear bigger. I absolutely adore the middle shade. This shade looks natural and gorgeous on my hazel eyes. And the brown can be added to the crease to add more of a dramatic smoke or used under the eyes as a liner. I honestly love this palette, and will use it constantly during this season. 




Continuing with the bronze trend, I love to use the Urban Decay Naked Palette's bronzer as a contour. This bronzer looks amazing on my cheeks, and it is not to dark nor light for my skin tone. This palette also comes with an amazing highlighter. A nice, soft sine is perfect for spring; it brings life to my skin after a dark, cold winter. Another favorite bronzer of mine is the Rimmel London Natural Bronzer, which applies a more darker color than the Urban Decay. 




Honey by Marc Jacobs is my new favorite perfume. It just smells like sunshine! To be honest, all the Marc Jacob scents are beautiful; it was so hard to choose just one. Laced with hints of pears, honey, oranges, and peaches, Honey is a must have for spring. It's light and fresh, which is a nice change from the dark musk of winter scents. I bought this gorgeous scent in the rollerball bottle because it makes it easy to take anywhere. I can just pop it in my purse to have it whenever I need it. 



Lipstick

Now on to lipstick! I love lipstick! Picking out what lipstick to wear is my favorite part of my makeup routine. For spring I have three colors that I will be wearing constantly. Firstly, a Clinique lipstick in the shade Sugared Grapefruit. I love Clinique's lipsticks because they are super creamy and have great pigmentation. This color has a pink hue with a touch of orange. Top Tip: This color looks amazing with the Maybelline Bronze Haze eyeshadow! 


My second favorite spring color is another Clinique lipstick in the color Glazed Berry. This color is a beautiful shade of bight pink. To make this color work, you will want to make it the main attraction; make sure to wear it with a light eyeshadow and little blush. 


My third favorite lipstick color for spring is L'Oreal's Everbloom. Another pinky color, I love this shade because it is a great mixture between pink and red. This lipstick is perfect for enhancing your natural lip color. It adds just the right pop of color, and looks great with any eye look. 


Nail Polish

What I love about spring is that everything becomes much lighter. I don't typically wear nail polish (crazy, I know!), but when spring rolls around I always find myself painting away. I am a fan of the much softer looking nail varnished, so spring pastels make me much more excited than winter darks. 

My first favorite nail color is this Clinique Really Rio orange. I got a small sample of this color, and fell head-over-heels in love with it. This color is a bright orange that will make your nails pop! This is definitively a color Zoella would be obsessed with! Make sure to keep this color around for summer; this color will look amazing with a tan!


Next is this Sally Hansen polish in the color Jaded. Pastel blue has been huge in fashion lately, which makes this color super trendy. I love this color because it a soft shade, which is perfect for spring. I much prefer this color on my toes rather than my figures. Because it is a bold color, it won't always go with every outfit I wear. By wearing it on my toes it makes for a cute touch when wearing sandals or open-toed shoes  


Sinful Colors in Easy Going is probably one of my favorite nail varnishes that I own. This soft pink looks beautiful and elegant. Because this color is a very light, almost white, it goes perfectly with any outfit. And even better yet, the polish lasts for days! I can go at least a week before it starts to chip. 

   

Fashion 

Another huge trend for this season is statement necklaces. During this award season, we saw a lot of big, beautiful necklaces, and as we all know, trends are based off of what our darling celebrities wear. I love this trend because of one thing: simplicity! I'm not one for accessorizing, so to have a trend based off one statement piece is perfect for me. By just throwing on a big necklace, I am staying on trend and keeping to my simple ascetic. Here are two great statement necklace I got from Forever21.

Nail Color: Really Rio


Bags, bags, bags! I have been so excited for spring so I can bust out my new bags! This first bag from TJ Maxx has a beautiful quilted texture in a soft shade of blue. I love this because a) it's super huge so I can fit everything in it, and b) because it is one of those bag that make you look like a powerful women carrying it. The color is perfect for spring, and it comes with a convenient shoulder strap so it can become a cross-shoulder bag if you please.


Everyone needs to have a staple satchel in their bag collection. This satchel is from Topshop, and it probably the best bag I've ever had. I love the neutral color because it goes with everything, and the shoulder strap makes it super easy to carry. This bag is so durable and great quality; I think I'll have this bag for a long time!
