You’ve heard of “Orange Is the New Black” and “Orange Is the New Pink”, but is it possible that “Lavender is the New Pink”? Especially during this time of year, new color trends begin to pop up like a bunch of spring flowers. Across nearly all of my favorite brands and designers, I’ve been seeing a lot of lavender. It’s so much so, that I’m beginning to think it’s taking over my closet.
Lavender for Work
I know this doesn’t fully apply to everyone yet, but lavender is starting to make its way into the workplace. The best example I can think of is this stunning shirt dress from Talbots. I already ordered it and am anxiously waiting for it to arrive It absolutely screams classic teacher, but can work with whatever your work setting is, online included! If your idea of “work” wear is more casual, this button-down from J. Crew fits the bill. Pair with your favorite pair of white jeans and you have an outfit that works from Day to Night.
Lavender for Home
Does anyone else think that loungewear is just too good to pass up? The softer the fabric, the harder it is to imagine wearing anything else. The dreamy cotton from J. Crew is not a misnomer. It sincerely feels like you’re wearing a cloud. Pair the Vintage Lilac Henley Shirt with the Jogger Pants and you’ll be ready for a day of relaxation. Just in case your feet feel a little chilled, definitely consider slipping into these cozy UGG slippers.
Lavender for the Beach
Hey, you soon to be Spring Breakers. Still, trying to find some fun and colorful pieces for your travels? Adding a splash of lavender is guaranteed to pop against your fresh tan and a tropical drink. J. Crew has several options in stunning shades of lavender. My favorite set is always the French Bikini Top and Boy Shorts combination. It’s youthful, while still offering plenty of coverage. Layer with this Irish Linen Shirt for a monochromatic cover-up.
Lavender Accessories
Going for the full lavender look can be a lot, and I totally get that! Instead, you may want to consider adding a dash of color with some accessories. Talbots has this stunning silk scarf that matched perfectly with my cardigan set. It feels Hermes inspired, but I never need a reason to buy a new scarf. These statement earrings from Tuckernuck are incredible for an easy statement piece. Honestly, when it comes to lavender, the sky is the limit!
Whether you call it Lavender, Violet, or Purple, there’s a way this color can work for you. As you think about your Spring wardrobe, definitely consider adding a dash of this regal shade into the mix. It’s the bit of freshness you just may have been searching for. Happy shopping!
