I usually stay away from mid-length skirts and dresses since they make me feel shorter. But I love the pattern and flow of this one I picked up at H&M. Simple and chic! I decided on a slim pointy toe flat, though this is look great with a heeled sandal this Summer.

I love wearing flowy button-down shirts during the warmer months, and was excited to find this one last week at H&M for just $17! I generally invest in quality over quantity and always make sure it’s something that I really love, not just a label or trend piece. It’s important to purchase items with a purpose. I wear my favorite pieces over and over, whether it be a flowy shirt for $17 or a great investment bag or shoe. Less is more!

A flowy blouse and jeans are easy for spring weather. To keep this look simple, I accessorized with classic pieces: black pumps, black bag and black sunnies.

Going for a monochromatic look in shades of grey and a few black pieces. Transitioning from winter clothes to lighter spring pieces is a challenge in the Midwest. The temperatures are up and down and it’s inconsistent for a good month and a half. My solution is to layer, but with lighter fabrics and I always have a scarf at arms reach!

I’m loving all the block heel sandals I’m seeing everywhere this Spring. Not only does this style look classic and elegant, it’s also comfortable! They’re perfect with skinny jeans and a tee, or a bit more dressed up for the office. Time for a pedi and new shoes!

I can’t wait to wear lighter fabrics and switch to a Spring wardrobe for good. Let’s put the boots and parkas away, please!! Since it’s still cold in Chicago and sweaters are a must, I’ve been sticking to neutrals and switching to slip-on sneakers and loafers when possible.

A favorite look of mine: blazer, denim and pumps. This is classic and will easily transition from season to season by switching up a few basic pieces. I always think it’s a great idea to invest in quality wardrobe staples that will last and remain timeless.

Time to pack away that down puffer coat and switch to a lighter trench coat. I’m SO excited to do just that! A trench coat is a wardrobe staple and such a versatile piece. I suggest finding something that can be worn to the office and with a pair of jeans and sneakers on the weekend. Here are a few options that are classic and perfect for this warmer weather.

Keeping it simple and neutral for this warmer weather! I love this lightweight linen long sleeve tee from Vince. It’s casual and goes perfect with a pair of black skinny jeans and slip-on sneakers. Everything just seems so much easier and better when the weather is nice. Ha!

Keeping it simple with a monochromatic look. To me, all black is a great go-to, especially in winter when you’re mostly wearing layers and knitwear. To keep it interesting I added texture and a bright pop of cobalt blue. Have a great Monday!
