n Syracuse, the winter months are long and dreary. What doesn’t help that? Throw a pandemic, remote work and remote learning into the mix! As March approaches, it’s safe to say we are ready for spring, to renew and refresh. This spring with venues reopening, there is no better time to trade in the sweatpants and get some fresh, bold colors to brighten up your wardrobe. Spring fashion is always a favorite for many as it takes us into new looks and bright color. This Spring 2021 there are two major pantone colors of the year “illuminating” a yellow hue and “ultimate gray” a classic grey which can be paired with many different color combinations such as yellow and navy or grey and mint but the possibilities are endless. Of course, working from home may not give you that confidence boost to jump out of your pajamas into a cute spring outfit but let’s make it easy for you because when you look good, you feel look good and feeling good can help your productivity. Grab your favorite crew neck t-shirt perhaps yellow paired with a stretchy denim jean and a floral or solid colored cardigan. Cardigans are always a great transitional piece especially from winter to spring in Central New York - and they are comfy! Cardigans are truly a staple piece in a woman’s wardrobe, they give the finishing touch to every outfit! Not into this look? A couple other "on trend" looks this spring will be the flowy floor length bold print maxi dresses inspired by the 1970s. They are a comfortable and fashionable look and require no overthinking. Or you can always go with the matching sweat suit outfit. Tie dye is huge this year with some studded earrings! When working from home these go-to outfits are a great choice. Heading into the office? The latest trend is the loose-fitting pant. Dig into your closest and grab your flare or wide leg bottoms because ladies they are back! Pair a floral or polka dot top. Don’t be afraid to mix colors or patterns. It’s in and it’s trending. The bolder the better! Looking to keep it simple? No problem. Grab a pair of colored crop pants (always a great easy go-to) with a short sleeve top preferably a print to offset your solid pant, throw on a statement necklace and don’t forget to add that black blazer, it’s a must-have piece that can spice up your whole attire to that stylish business chic look. This spring is a time to dress up and show up. Whether you are stuck at home or heading into the office, it’s time to boost your self esteem with some bold colors in your world - or shall we say wardrobe.
