How To Layer Like A Pro This Spring

Layer

With spring just around the corner I’m already looking forward to warmer weather, but if you’re like me and it’s still a little cold where you are, get my tips on how to layer your spring favorites while staying warm.

Outfit Details: Chicwish Cardigan c/o, H&M Turtleneck, Gordmans Jeans c/o (similar here), Vintage Coat (similar here), Elusive Society Hat c/o, Bella Luna Bracelets c/o, Mellow World Purse (similar here), Amazon Gloves, Nine West Boots

Layer Your Cropped Cardigans

Cropped cardigans and high waisted jeans are a popular combination right now, but if it’s still too cold to wear them where you are, try layering your cardigan like I did here. I layered mine with a long light gray sweater to complement the pastel blue cardigan.

Throw On A Baseball Cap

Baseball caps, also known as dad hats, are another creative way to add layers and warmth to any outfit. They’ll not only keep your head warm, but give your outfit a laid back playful vibe. Just match your hat to your sweater for an unexpected combination.

Layer
Wear Gloves

If I’m going to be out for a longer period of time I’ll throw on a pair of fingerless gloves. I’ve been wearing these gloves all fall and winter long and I’m obsessed with them! Not only do they keep my hands warm, they make it easy to use my phone, and they’re adorable too.

Layer
Layer A Jacket Over Your Look

If you still need an extra layer of warmth throw a jacket over you whole look. As the weather warms up my jackets get lighter and lighter. This one works great because it’s large enough to wear over bulky sweaters.

Layer
Update Your Accessories

I have some tried and true purses I like to carry every spring including this blue one (similar here). Not only does it match my sweater and hat perfectly, but it’s a breath of fresh air after all the neutral bags I’ve been caring this winter.

Wear A Stack Of Bracelets

I haven’t worn a stack of bracelets in a while since my arms are mostly covered in bulky sweaters and coats. I’ll typically wear stacks of brackets come warmer months when it’s too hot to layer with clothing. These pastel pink and white bracelets with gold charms have been fun to wear now in anticipation of warmer weather.

My Mother’s Day started at 4am with a nursing baby My Mother’s Day started at 4am with a nursing baby in my arms, a toddler crawling into my bed and falling asleep on my shoulder, & a doggie sleeping across my legs. 💕 They have no idea what today is, but I’m feeling so blessed to be surrounded by all my babies on Mother’s Day 👶🐶👧 Even if it was at 4am 🥱

Not pictured our dog Sydney. 🐶 I’m so tired I didn’t even notice until after we got these pictures 🤪 I knew I was forgetting something! 🙈

After laboring at home for 2 hours we JUST made it to the hospital maybe 45 minutes before he came out with 2 quick pushes! It all happened so fast my head is still spinning. 🥹 

So thankful my SIL @thedivinemissem77 answered her phone and came quickly to stay with Audrey & my hubby @npbrady9 taking care of everything else as we rushed to the hospital. ♥️ God is so good & we couldn’t be happier with the newest member of our family 🤗
