Revamp Your Spring Wardrobe With $200 From Kohl’s!
March 11, 2013 4:00 pm Posted in Budget-Friendly, Giveaway, Style Candy -- NYU g+ page

Sunday saw us springing forward and, unfortunately, losing an hour of sleep. But while you may be struggling to keep your eyes open, don’t forget that Daylight Savings Time officially marks a turn to longer days and warmer weather. Before you know it, you’ll be trading Uggs for flip-flops and ordering your coffees iced instead of hot. Personally, my favorite thing about this time of year is knowing that it’s only a matter of weeks before I can bust out my cutest spring clothes.
What happens, though, when you go to open your closet and you realize that last year’s best is only this year’s “meh”? College budgets don’t leave a lot of room for shopping money, but Kohl’s wants to help you out by giving you a $200 gift card to shop their latest fashions!
I had the chance to take a peek at some of their new spring collections, and let me tell you — Lauren Conrad, J.Lo, Vera Wang — I want it all.
To enter to win a $200 gift card from Kohl’s, leave a comment telling us your favorite spring fashion trend! A winner will be selected March 18th!

My favorite spring fashion trend has to be the pretty pastel colored & lightweight spring scarves I've been seeing everywhere. It's amazing how versatile they are and work to complete ANY outfit. With so many retailers selling these inexpensive pieces (I've found spring scarves from $5-$20 from Target, Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, Nordstrom BP, Urban Outfitters, and American Eagle), you can't go wrong with stocking up for the season. I think it's safe to say I have a scarf obsession!

My favorite spring fashion trend is the use of green, especially the wide spectrum from emerald to mint (my two favorite shades). I love seeing those colors in pants, blazers, dresses, and accessories.

Spring is my favorite season to dress for. The fashion in the spring time is simply refreshing. To me, it signifies a rebirth period in the fashion calendar. It is a time for one to melt away their winter blues and brighten up in a cheery pastel yellow polka- dot dress. There are various fashion trends I look forward during this particular season (the pastel colors, the delicate lace, etc. ). However, my favorite spring trend is the collaboration of fashion and nature. I love how earthy/nature prints can blended into a piece of clothing to create a lovely floral skirt. I also find it inspiring when designers try to incorporate organic material in their designs to create wearable art for consumers. I believe this is a great trend because it will never go out of style.

I love the black and white trend! It's a good way to reuse pieces from winter into spring, especially when you pair it with a bright pop of floral or neon color! So fun!

My favorite spring fashion trend is definitely high-low skirts and dresses! I love that they're flirty and fun but still appropriate. Plus, they can be styled for a range of occasions from school to work to a girls' night out!
Samantha says:

My favorite trend is hi-low skirts! I love how they can be dressed up or down, depending on the situation. I can put on a white shirt, a hi-low, and a black blazer, and I have a classy outfit for work. It is also something that is perfect for school because it is trendy but not too revealing!

My favorite springtime fashion is probably the use of sheer fabric. I love when it is used for dresses; it's light weight and fun to spin in and flows just the right way.
But this season I love that it has been showing up in blouses. I love all the collared, button down blouses I have been seeing everywhere. Especially the ones trimmed in black. I love the colors and patterns used (white, mint green, pastel colors, stripes, floral.) Plus it looks good on everyone and is cute, causal and classy!
