Sequins to Swimsuits: A Fashion Guide to Spring Break
Written by Daniela Vercollone
Spring break is a week filled with anything from beach vacations to ski trips—a time to relax and reset. It is also a time to play with fun fashion pieces and welcome warmer temperatures. This season, subtle maximalism and vibrant colors are making their mark. This spring break guide will introduce you to them.
1. Sequins and Sparkles
Sequins and sparkles are making a comeback. Whether it be on mini skirts or tank tops, this eye-catching fabric is guaranteed to elevate your outfit. A wide variety of brands are hopping on this lively, fun trend, including Peppermayo, Danielle Guizio, and BY GIANNA. They each have a unique selection of bedazzled pieces that are sure to make your outfit stand out. Pairing an eye-catching skirt with a solid-colored cami ensures that all attention will be drawn to you this spring.
2. One-Piece Swimsuits
For the relaxing, ocean-filled, tropical vacation, you will most likely find yourself needing a new bathing suit or two. This spring break, and upcoming summer, one-piece swimsuits are back and better than ever. The comfy and reliable suit provides sun protection, while still letting you get your sought-after tan lines. Whether you prefer a more modest cut or not, there is a one-piece for everyone.
3. Chunky Jewelry
An outfit is never complete without accessories, and this break jewelry is the way to top it off. For the past few months statement jewelry has been on the rise, and with the sun coming out, layering and bold pieces are here to stay. For instance, pairing chunky rings with a hand chain will create a sense of balance while evoking a classy and fun vibe. I love to browse for new jewels at Bracha, en route, and thrift stores!
4. Cardigans
For the cooler climate, cardigans are the perfect way to stay warm and cozy while adding a pop of color to your outfit. I love a fuzzy cardigan to add some warmth and softness to a simple outfit, or a chunky knit piece to add dimension. Cardigans are so versatile, it’s easy to find them oversized with big buttons or form-fitting with pockets, and they can be paired with anything. A low-rise jean paired with a colorful cardigan and complementing accessories will be perfect to ring in the new season.
5. Floral Pieces
Of course, spring break would not be complete without a good set. Skirts and tops have made for an iconic pair for a long time, but this season expect to see long skirts and tank top sets patterned with life-like flowers, designs, and vibrant colors. Personally, I also love the mini skirt combo, which is perfect for warm temperatures. While embracing the season of new bloom, florals have taken on a modern, realistic variation this year, and the patterns can be found on various items of clothing. In short, you can not go wrong with a fresh set this spring break.
No matter where you find yourself this spring break, these fashion trends and clothing essentials will make themselves known. Whether you go for a sparkly fit with fun jewelry or a sleek top and jeans with a colorful cardigan this week, have fun with clothes. After all, spring break is only once a year!
