Right about now, your closet is begging for a spring awakening. After three long months of winter, it’s itching to trade out cable knit sweaters and bulky jackets for linen tops and white cropped denim. (And we’re sure you are, too.)
To make this transition seamless, you may need to put some extra thought behind your purchases and outfit selections. Your spring wardrobe should be able to truly “blossom,” and what better way to accomplish that than by following our six-step guide below?
Give it a read and tell us if you agree with our pointers in the comments section. As always, we’ll help you save at select retailers with our unbeatable cash back offers!
1. Swap in spring fabrics.
It’s time to accept that your favorite wool coat’s days are numbered. Pack it away for next year and fill your freshly available closet space with a nylon chest-stripe rainbreaker jacket from Nautica.
The trick is to look for fabrics that are light and airy, like linen or cotton. Nautica’s sustainably crafted long-sleeve sweater polo is 60% cotton and features an open neckline and loose sleeves for that perfect early-spring fit. Enjoy up to 8.08% cash back on us when shopping them both today.
2. Go lighter and brighter.
This one’s obvious, but a real must in spring fashion. Dark hues clash with the season’s naturally soft colors. So, you should be opting for light wash jeans and eye-popping shades that show your appreciation for the time of year. The Bar III open-front blazer from Macy’s (seen above) is a good start—and comes with 10% cash back.
3. Incorporate more prints.
Spring isn’t boring, and your clothes shouldn’t be either. Stock up on Bonobos’ stretch riviera short-sleeve designs — including the bold new Pineapple Madness print! — for fun style moments.
H&M also understands the assignment with this orange-and-pink plaid shirt, which you can nab for just $17.99, online only. Both stores are currently offering 3% cash back.
4. Free the feet.
Your feet haven’t seen the sun since last summer! Bare them to the world in these taupe-colored quilted slide sandals from GUESS Factory (5% cash back). It’ll feel so good to wriggle those toes again.
As for our male members, ALDO (6.06% cash back) recently dropped these white Kohn driving shoes. No socks required.
5. Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize.
Adding playful touches will only enhance your outfits this spring. Think silky scarves, braided bracelets and straw bags. In fact, you can nab this Mar Y Sol handwoven raffia tote at Banana Republic for 4% cash back. Or snag the Hester Fedora at Hats.com for 10.1% cash back.
6. Layer (within reason).
Layering will be a necessity during those brisk first days of spring. But you don’t want to overdo it either. Throwing on a cardigan or vest over a long-sleeve top will suffice.
Banana Republic Factory (4.04% cash back) has just slashed 30% off this faux suede collared vest and will take an additional 20% off once you add it to your cart. Meanwhile, Lands’ End (6.06% cash back) carries this cozy cardigan sweater in four other colors.
