I love when the snow begins to melt and the sun begins to shine. Shed the layers of your heavy winter sweaters and break out the airy dresses. Spring is coming and it's time to spring into action with these fashion tips!

1. Pastels brighten up your wardrobe.

Pastels are the epitome of spring colors! Get away from darker shades because pastels not only brighten your look, but they lighten your feel.

2. Let the flowers bloom with florals!

Put away your ugly Christmas sweaters and try a new pattern. Florals are my favorite pattern because you literally match the nature around you.

3. Wear lighter fabrics.

The heavy sweaters and fabrics of winter need to be put away! It's warm now, so take out your light chiffons and breathable cottons!

4. Use lighter shades of makeup.

While dark lipstick does look good when you go out, during the day wear light pinks and pastels to match your wardrobe. In addition to using lighter colors, wear less makeup. Less is more and the spring sun will help clear up your skin.

5. Embrace delicate pieces of jewelry.

Bold statement pieces can still be worn when you go out, but wear delicate jewelry during the day so you feel as light as the spring breeze! Small necklaces and diamond studs are my go-to pieces in the springtime. Also, you can never go wrong with Alex & Ani bracelets!

Basically, your spring fashion should be so light that you can fly away! Use these tips and you'll be ready when the first flower blooms.
