STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Spring Leg Prep

When the spring season begins to creep in, it can be difficult to determine exactly when it is appropriate to break out bare legs. I usually begin with a cuff at the bottom of my pants, cropping my pants a bit to expose my ankles. Soon things escalate to actual cropped pants, skirts and high boots and eventually, shorts and skirts with fully exposed legs. This time of the year can be daunting for a Fashionista and her legs who have been in hibernation for months.

When I spotted this Fashionista the weather was gloomy, a complete bummer following a day of 70 degree sunshine. Days like these are always frustrating in terms of choosing an outfit. Since it is April, spring is technically in full bloom even though it doesn’t always feel like it. This Fashionista managed to find an outfit perfect for spring without prematurely exposing to much leg.

This royal blue hi-low dress is the perfect transition dress for spring. While the dress can be worn to a fancier event, this Fashionista dressed hers down with a jean jacket and black bootie. The matching blue tote adds a fun casual look for a day out and about town.

Even though the weather wasn’t in full spring effect, I loved how this Fashionista’s outfit still exuded the warmth of the season. The bright blue color of her hi-low dress is the perfect color for spring while the high-in-the front, low-in-the-back hemline allows her to slowly break out her tight-less legs as they get used to the fresh air again. Transitioning into spring isn’t always easy in the fashion department, but leaving the house in an outfit that involves fewer layers and brighter colors always brings excitement for spring.
