Spring Shopping Guide

For me, Daylight Savings Time always marks the start of spring. This year, despite the fact that everyone's on a budget, there are a few additions you can make to your wardrobe to inject a little fun and start spring off on the right foot! Here are my top picks:

- Thong sandals - J Crew has some great ones in a variety of colors
- Boyfriend jeans - the more trashed and torn, the better
- Cardigan - three-quarter sleeves are a must, dusty pink is a great color option
- Chunky necklaces - a carry-over from fall, these are still a great accent
- Hobo bag - slouchier and hippier than we've seen in a while, make sure yours is made of ultra-soft leather and preferably gray, blue, tan or ivory
- Spring scarves - in black or white, they go with everything
- Ultra-high, statement heels - they're the new "it" bag
- A flowy, pleated dress in a fun color
