Top 5 Statement Spring Pieces

We couldn’t be more excited about the arrival of spring. Spring is all about awakening – the awakening of nature, the awakening of ourselves, the awakening of fashion. It’s very difficult to choose the wardrobe essentials for a specific season as the choices tend to be very subjective. For some people, it’s the always popular must-haves, such as the little black dress or a regular white T-shirt that can never go out of fashion and can be worn at all times.

Other people, however, include all the popular trends into their essential spring collection – items that are trendy at that very moment. Here, we have a list of the five top statement pieces for spring. Some are popular at the moment and will be in the years to come as well, while some have been in our wardrobes for a long, long time. Take a look.

1. Go ultra

According to Pantone, the color of 2018 is ultra violet, and that’s a good reason for choosing it as a must-have statement piece for spring. If you choose to follow this excellent idea, the best would be to get yourself one of the many ultra violet spring dresses. This color looks best when it’s worn on a dress, but sweatshirts and blouses don’t fall far behind. You can combine your perfect summery short ultra violet dress with white shoes and a white backpack, and you have yourself an excellent spring look. Moreover, you can wear this one on multiple occasions – whether it’s a simple walk, coffee break in the mall, wedding or a date. It’s always feminine and this year, it will be huge.

2. You’re nothing without denim

Denim is one of those pieces that have been popular ever since we were born, and there are higher possibilities of Earth being hit by a meteor than denim going out of fashion. Even though many opt for different denim pieces – such as jackets and shirts (which are also quite popular), the best thing you could do is have jeans that you will rock this spring. Having a pair of trendy denim jeans is simply a must, as it can be combined with practically anything, minimalistic or not, and still look amazing. There is a plethora of fashion combinations that you could make with this item, and it can be a statement piece in many ways.

3. Button up and color block

As you definitely want a statement piece, you need to choose something that’s both fashionable and classic. Thanks to color-blocking and the latest trends, we have the buttoned-up color-blocked shirt. With these blouses with contrasting pockets, you will look as if you came from the 1970s but with a very futuristic twist.

Of course, everything depends on the rest of your outfit as it’s the details that make the combination, not the pieces, but you simply need to have one of these in your wardrobe. A tip for you: If you choose to go with this one, make sure to get a color-block shirt that will feature the colors you can easily match to the rest of your outfit. Go with millennial pink as it’s one of the top colors for the season, or any other bright spring color.

4. Use the A-line

If you want to seem girly and still be very rebellious, you should definitely use an A-line mini skirt as your weapon. Nowadays, you can get them in any color, but the best idea would be to avoid dark colors this spring and focus on the bright ones instead, such as bright pink, canary yellow or, as already mentioned, millennial pink and ultra violet. Combine it with a classic white shirt and nice shoes and you’ll simply look amazing.

5. As cool as a sleeveless coat

Even though it seems redundant, sleeveless coats are totally trendy, and very comfortable indeed. They protect us from being cold while still giving us that dose of sun we really need in spring. Once you decide on your favorite spring look and get dressed, say no to the denim jackets and trench coats (even though the latter will be huge this season) and choose a gray or beige sleeveless coat instead. These colors go well with any other color, so you don’t have to worry about that. It will give you that casual yet trendy look that you definitely want this season.

Embrace spring and with it these statement pieces that will be huge in the streets in the following months. Be fashionable if you have a chance, and choosing one of these items will definitely help you in this endeavor.
