Pair it with a 3/4-length sleeve tee, skinny jeans, stacks of bangles and sky-high heels for a “model off duty” look. Or get sophisticated with a mid-length full skirt, a printed blouse, gold hoop earrings and wedge booties.

These celebrity looks make us long for days filled with warm weather, maxi dresses, platform sandals and flowy silk skirts.
Miranda Kerr’s printed gown with draping detail was both simple and chic — a perfect mix for ushering in the season in style. Selita Ebanks mixed polka dot and floral prints (always a spring do) with a ruffle camisole and mid-length skirt. And Gabrielle Union rocked a tan leather blazer with a white minidress with cut-out details.

The spring season is officially here and S&P has become obsessed with color — lots of it. From dresses to shoes to outerwear, vibrant tones that scream ‘Look at me!’ are no longer reserved for special occasions.
An easy way to spice up your look is by adding a handbag in a candy-coated hue. Your go-to jeans and tee get an instant trend boost with a cross-body bag in a citrus shade. Or for the professional set, kick up the style factor on a gray or black business suit with a chic laptop case in a unexpected color like turquoise.
