Transitioning to Spring: From Recylced Winter Neutrals to Bright Spring Colors

Today is the beginning of March and in just a matter of weeks (perhaps months for the east coast, but soon!), spring will happily arrive. We will watch the majority of the world slowly dissolve from black and white to Technicolor.

We know that a little burst of color outside changes our mood completely, causing us to infuse our wardrobe with spring pieces. Yes, it’s about time to put those heavy winter wears away in exchange for some lighter pieces and begin working some lovely pastels into warm-weather ensembles.

You may be inclined to update your wardrobe essentials, but you should know that no matter what the season is, there is one clothing piece that you don’t EVER have to say goodbye to. Of course here at indi, the answer to everything is jeans! To help in this seasonal transition, we came up with some simple suggestions to help you perfectly match your jeans with spring pieces with some Do’s and Don’ts:

1. Don’t Fall Back: After months of submitting yourselves to jackets and coats, we understand that escaping your winter wardrobe can be a bit daunting.

Instead…

Spring ahead: interpret your winter wardrobe with a fresh eye by pairing your jeans with a neutral top and/or a trench coat. The neutral top creates a fresh, fuss-free outfit and we all know that a light trench coat is spring’s timeless wardrobe staple.

2. Don’t go overboard: We know how much you love spring, we do too…but you don’t need to go bright on bright on bright. Sometimes, an outfit with a slight pop of color is all you need.

Instead…

Balance your Yin and Yang: Create a tone-balanced outfit by pairing your simple, dark-washed jeans with a bright, eye-catching top. Remember: less is more.

3. Don’t let him have all the fun: Winter allows lots us girls to strut masculine, heavy-weight jackets. Often in spring, however, many women turn to short skirts or airy blouses as the only way to express their style.

Instead…

(Wo)Man Up: Give your t-shirt and jean combo a classy vibe by throwing a blazer over it. Boyfriend jeans are also in, so perhaps invest in a versatile trouser jean that can get dressed up and down.

And if you want a new pair of jeans for the new season, stay tuned for our Springtime Selections coming soon!
