With spring just beginning that means all types of fashion trends and beauty essentials are becoming big hits. Whether new accessories are coming out or beauty procedures can be done, everyone is jumping on the bandwagon of what helps you look “on-fleek.”

Yellow

Yellow is definitely the color of the spring-summer season. With its almost pastel appearance and genuine shade, yellow makes you look and feel good. The most common yellow items on the market are any yellow tanks from places like Express, Urban Outfitters, Brandy Melville and Forever 21. These, along with many more retail stores, carry some of the cutest, newest pieces that you won’t want to miss out on. Aside from clothes, yellow is extremely big for nails. Whether you want acrylics or enjoy going all natural, yellow is the color that brightens everything up and hints that a glimpse of summer is coming up soon.

Eyelash Extensions

How many of us are sick of waking up at 6:45 A.M. to put some makeup on and have enough time to perfect your eyelashes? Layer after layer, swipe after swipe, you try to perfectly designate every lash to its spot. Well, eyelash extensions are the solution to a much irritating problem! Eyelash extensions are temporary eyelashes that are stitched into your original eyelashes to elongate them, requiring no mascara or any extra cosmetics. In order to maintain them, you brush them out every day with a special spooly makeup brush and touch them up every couple months. Just imagine, waking up and half the work is already done with no additional labor needed.

Hats

As we’ve seen recently, the weather has been all over the place. One day its 40 degrees, the next day we are wearing shorts. With the weather hopping around, hats have definitely become big. In specific, celebrities have been wearing beach hats or straw hats. Those along with simple hats like beanies and snapbacks are making a comeback. Aside from keeping your head warm, you can control any bad hair day and add an accessory to your “outfit-of-the-day.”

Birkenstocks

Over the summer of 2017, Birkenstocks have been rediscovered. Along with the typical close-toed shoes, the open-toed sandals have boomed into the world. Females and males have gone nuts over the comfortable, affordable, and extremely stylish footwear. The big boom for the company has been the return of the close-toed shoes. Coming in all sizes and colors, these shoes are more beneficial for a year-round look while providing the same comfort that open-toed shoes do. When you want to slip on some shoes but it rained the night before, close-toed Berks are the ones for you.

Pastels

With the sun beaming down pastel colors are a must. All of your blues, pinks, purples, oranges, and yellows are totally the thing to wear at this time. Pastels originally being displayed in the spring and summer have reached the year-round spectrum. Whether you are going to a pumpkin patch or out to dinner on the lake, pastels bring out your natural glow while bringing some freshness to your appearance.

Fanny Packs

Fanny packs have never been at such a high demand until now. Kids nowadays love getting up and going without any preparation and with fanny packs, you can literally grab-and-go. Imagine, having a fanny pack hanging on your front door that has everything you need at any time. Aside from having everything easily accessible, you don’t have to have the hassle of carrying it. With its capability to clip, you can be at ease knowing everything is in one spot and it can’t go missing. Also, you are free to do whatever with a promise that your belongings are attached to you.

Overall, whether you want to treat yourself to a day out or want to look cute and casual, these styles are for you. With endless combinations and guaranteed comfort, you get win-win situations no matter what. At the end of the day, you look great, feel amazing, and have a pep in your step entering the much-awaited summer season.
