Spring Into New Trends
Carolina Santos Read
Hi there!
On a recent trip to Austin, TX my dear friend and talented photographer Sarah and I shot some Spring looks. Check her out on IG @sarah_uftring. You might recognize a few of these pieces from my last post, but styled new ways. I love little pops of color for Spring, and naturally florals and other fun prints.
In the first look above I am showing off my new dress that I got myself as an early birthday present from a little Texas boutique that had all the bohemian vibes and of course I spotted a rack of all Spell dresses, one of my fave brands. They do a lot of recycled materials and all compostable or recyclable tags and packaging which I love. The booties are still available and are so inexpensive and a great quality staple brown suede boot!
In the second look above I went a little more classic with my look with my pop of color spring long coat, which is so inexpensive! It comes in a few colors. I styled the look with the boho top I shared to LIKEtoKNOW.it already which is an inexpensive dupe of Spell the Aussie brand that makes all my boho style dreams come true. My high waisted raw hem ankle cut flare jeans are my fave jeans of this season, and my booties are still avail (I shared them a bunch over the holidays when they were first on sale). The look below it wearing my new brown warmer double breasted coat sold out so quickly after it went on sale. There are other colors available in it though like a beautiful light blue tone. My white tank top underneath and the same jeans and ankle boots make for an effortless classic look. The coat dresses up any outfit!
In the next look I kept the same jeans on and changed into my fave oldie but goodie cowboy booties (linked similar as mine aren’t available anymore) and a new teddy coat long shacket. It runs big so definitely size down if you don’t want an oversized fit. It’s so warm and cozy and funky! Perfect for end of winter into Spring. It’s on sale right now too!
Now for some really springy looks like my dress in the first look above. I love my Spell seashell skirt I got around the holidays in their last sale. It’s not available on the site anymore but I linked a similar one. As always check my @liketoknow.it page in the app for alternative brands and similar items at varying price points for every look I link. Spell makes gorgeous prints but so many companies are doing this right now! I styled the skirt with an older fringe vest and my bell sleeve stretchy top from Bohemian Groove on the Move, one of the best traveling boutiques (but you can always order through their website or IG and they invoice you directly and ship anywhere). It’s a small business owned by a badass female and I’ve gotten amazing pieces from her from time to time! The top I’m wearing from them is not available anymore so I linked a similar one that’s on sale. I finished off the look with my brown booties and fringe purse. The purse is on sale too!
In the next look I’m wearing my new fave cropped puffer jacket. It’s floral, it’s super soft and comfy, and it’s now on super sale and under $20! I have been wearing it so much. I’m in the same accessories and jeans from the look above. Honestly though, how perfect is this jacket?!
The last and final look is my oldie but goodie Free People floral print fringe kimono with velvet print. It’s older and I will wear it forever. I’m linking a similar one here. It makes me feel like one of my faves when I wear it: Stevie Nicks. The top is the same bell sleeve cropped stretchy top, and the same new ankle cut raw hem high waisted jeans I have been wearing on repeat. My cowboy booties will never go out of style and only get more comfortable as they get beat up and broken in. I linked a similar pair here.
Happy Spring! Enjoy the beautiful weather getting warmer as it’s now starting to do back home and not just in Texas, hehe.
Xo,
Carolina
