Spring Trend: Joyful Dressing

Springtime is the best time, am I right?

I went on a walk yesterday and the smell of jasmine blooming all over our neighborhood just makes me so happy! 

Another trend for Spring is clothes that spark joy or “joyful dressing.”  It’s no surprise that this is popular after the spring we had in 2020 where we basically never left the house.  I saw a quote somewhere recently that said something about the fashion of the Roaring 20s.  And how we will all be getting dressed up every time we leave the house now.  I know I am more excited than ever to put an outfit together for an event or a night out.

So, when I read about this trend I instantly thought of this dress, the big huge pattern; it just makes me happy.  Green is Lillian’s favorite color and it makes her smile.  And honestly, there is no other piece in my closet that even comes close to being this bold.  I normally wear a more natural color pallet, so this is completely out of my comfort zone.  I only tried it on because I was looking for a dress for a garden party where the attire was “garden glam” and this dress is what was suggested by Jill at Bliss in Covington.  I loved it immediately when I put it on and felt so good.

Getting dressed for anything should be an act that makes you feel good.  You should feel confident, comfortable and most importantly like yourself, the best version of yourself preferably.  Obviously, this will mean something completely different to everyone, so do you.  Find what makes you feel good. 

But don’t be afraid to try something new and different.  If you’re like me and have been wearing skinny jeans for the past decade or so, maybe it’s time to try a new fit.  Maybe you’ll hate it, but you just might love it.
