What You Need Right Now

One of my favorite parts of my Glamour magazine is the "What You Need Right Now" section. It basically lists the editors picks and must-haves for the current season and month. This is my version of this, showing you things I have been loving and think that anyone needs as part of their wardrobe this moment.


A Floral Scarf

A floral scarf is a must have in any wardrobe, especially in the spring. It easily completes any outfit and is light enough to throw on over an outfit on a chilly day but still is consistent with the season. Add this to a t-shirt, skinny jeans, colored flats and a cardigan and you have a casual and cute spring look. 



Detailed Nude Platforms

These heels have lots of detail, yet look understated and wearable. The nude color is a must have for spring and allows you to wear it with almost any outfit. Bows are always on trend and helps make this shoe more feminine. The stud detailing gives these pumps a rocker edge and adds visual interest. The peep-toe and wood platform complete the look. This could be worn with a colored maxi-dress, jeans or even a floral skirt.





Floral Dress

Can you tell how much I like floral prints? This floral dress is seasonless. The dark background and black lacy detail make this dress wearable in summer with sandals and in winter with a cardigan, tights and boots. For spring, pair this with an oversized pink cardigan and black wedges. The belt completes the look by defining the waist and making the dress more daytime. Every girl should own a floral dress! (In my opinion :))





Black Skinny Jeans

I know what you must be thinking. Black jeans in spring? But go with me here on this. These jeans are my go-to pants in any season. Whether it be with a floral (of course) top and black sandals, a bright colored blouse (turquoise or coral - this year's colors!) or a crisp white oxford and colorful jewelry, these jeans will work with anything. They are the base of an outfit and allow you to showcase other more important parts of your ensemble. They also are perfect for a date night out because they are a step above plain old denim (too casual) and a step below too dressy (trying too hard).  Trust me, once you own a pair you will understand!






White Oxford Shirt

This should be a staple in anyones wardrobe, reguardless of the time of year. This white oxford can be worn an infinate amount of ways, and is perfect for spring. Try adding it tucked into a colorful skirt and wedges. Or pairing it with distressed jeans, and pumps. Or skinny cargos and a cardigan. The list goes on and on. This shirt is timeless and classic. It looks good on any body type and skin tone, seriously! How many clothing items can you say that about?




I will hopefully be doing these posts regularly, since I constantly am in "need" of new clothing items. :) All items are from Forever21.
