My 5 must-have items for spring/summer time:

Here in South Africa we are getting closer and closer to spring, and if I do say so myself, it is about time! Don't get me wrong, winter is great for hot chocolate with those mini marshmallows and cuddling by the fire.. but nothing beats the new blossoms of spring, everything is coming back to life. 

Here are 5 must-haves for spring and summer.

1. Modern florals. I personally love this trend at the moment and can definitely say that I do incorporate them where I can. This looks great when paired with a plain pants as too many patterns could become chaotic! Try something like this floral top from Forever 21:




2. Maxi skirt and crop top. This is perfect for springs light breezes and days spent out and about. I love this combo for the traditional stages of winter and spring. Try a bright skirt with a more fitted, plain crop top for a similar look:


(You can even incorporate the florals again!)

3. Self tan! This is perfect for coming coming out of winter, and for me it is definitely needed. I struggle to get a tan naturally, so this is really useful for me but also to even out your skin tone. Try Tropitone Sunless Bronze self tan lotion or aerosol spray, I personally love this one as it drys in seconds and doesn't go orange.

4. I absolutely love D'orsay flats! They come in nearly every colour as well as two tones, they are super comfortable and simply look amazing with any outfit. 




5. Last but not least and definitely my favourite trend for festivals and concerts, are kimonos. Throw this over denim shorts and a crop and you're ready to go! I'm in love with this patterned kimonos:



I'd love to know what your must-haves for this spring are, so let me know! :)
