How To Put A Spring In Your Step
Spring is the perfect time of the year to add a bright and fresh touch to your look using just your shoes; they can instantly breathe new life into your winter wardrobe and make use of your favourite summer clothing, it's just about how you wear your spring shoes and what you wear them with. Shoes are one of the easiest ways to instantly change your look for spring, by just slipping on a different pair you can bring an otherwise dull winter look to life or tone down a summer outfit that's just a little bit too much.
The most obvious way to inject a bit of spring to your outfit is with the use of colour. Changing the colour of your shoes is an easy way to instantly bring your look to life, whether it's a simple pastel shade or a vibrant one, it's all about changing your summer or winter pieces with that little touch.
Spring is the season for fresh feeling shades and incorporating them with your dark winter clothing adds a breathe of fresh air to otherwise dreary looking outfits; go for brighter colours with dark winter clothing to inject a bit of colour like purple, blue or bright red shoes, as pastel shades can make the whole look a bit washed out. If you're eager to bring out your summer clothing, don't hold back any longer, just team them with some pastel coloured shoes like dusty pink, nude or yellow to diffuse the bright colours and make them a little more spring-like.
If you want to bring your outfit to life and aren't overly keen on plain looks using block colours then you'll adore spring fashions because it's when prints really come to life. Of course, the most obvious is a pair of floral print shoes like ballerina pumps or floral wedges, they're so pretty with pastel shades and are the perfect way to add that spring touch to your look. Avoid bold floral prints though; spring is all about cute ditsy florals in pastel shades and they'll also work perfectly with this season's bohemian trend. Wear floral print shoes with darker winter clothing like jeans or work trousers or team with your summer dresses to calm down the look and tone.
Spring is also the ideal time if you love the nautical look; it's made a big comeback again this year and works really well during the spring months. Stripes and polka dots are must haves for a nautical trend, pop on a pair of striped or polka dot wedges or flat pumps with jeans from your winter wardrobe or summer skirts to achieve this look.
Little touches can really make an outfit and that's where frills, bows and rosettes come into their own, especially for spring because they're so girly and pretty. And what's more is that detail in shoes like frills, bows and 3D florals are all big trends for 2011. If you're not overly keen on prints then by using detail in your shoes is a great way to add that spring touch to your look; go for shoes with bows or frill detail to instantly change your look from winter into spring.
Whether you add a spring touch to your look with a floral print, pastel shade or incorporate some cute touches like frills or bows, it's the perfect way to bring together your winter and summer wardrobes for a season that can be so difficult to dress for.
