Springtime style
Whether or not you celebrate the tradition of Easter, if you live in the northern hemisphere, the April holiday marks the perfect time to start embracing fresh spring fashion, warmer weather, and the sunny disposition that arrives alongside it. With flowy cuts, pastel shades, and light, airy materials, it’s all about silhouettes, colors, and fabrics that instantly lighten your mood. Here we show you three Easter-friendly outfits that will not only work for your long weekend plans, but you’ll also find yourself wearing on high rotation throughout the summer and beyond.
1. Picnic in the Park
Allow yourself to be seduced by the humble al fresco act of picnicking. Besides your most important and classic accessory of all — your picnic basket — celebrate the start of springtime with playful separates and fresh hues such as pristine white and zingy neon. Skip the grass-averse heels in lieu of some chic flats, and you’ll be ready to settle in for a lingering — and stylish — afternoon.
2. Family Easter Egg Hunt
There’s a good chance you’ll leave the actual hunting of eggs to the little ones, but who says you can’t be there for the tinfoil-wrapped chocolates and hot cross buns at the end? Use the family get-together as an excuse to test out the freshest new season looks — a coordinated pantsuit in luxurious pastel fabric instantly elevates, as does a vibrant printed dress finished off with one of the season’s reigning eyewear trends: oval glasses.
3. Sophisticated Sunday Brunch
For those who celebrate the Easter holiday, Sunday is usually marked by a family and friend-filled meal with all the trimmings, offering the perfect excuse to get a little more dressed up than usual. Why not opt for a feminine, elegant dress that nods to the sense of occasion? Match the spirited dress with an equally covetable (and optionally candy-coated) “it” handbag.
