The Secret To Dressing For Spring In 5 Easy Steps

@Princess_GF_ on Twitter writes, "the only thing I hate about spring is how cold it is in the morning and then it randomly gets really warm. I don't ever know what to wear."

It's a conundrum we all face- that awkward time period where winter clothing is too warm and yet the weather is still too fickle for summer shorts. Clothing of the future will detect temperature variances and adjust to allow for moderate comfortable levels, but until these technologies become common place, we are stuck with the traditional solution: layering. Here are my top 5 tips for spring layering. Wear them in the morning to stay warm and remove layers throughout the day to stay cool.

Divergent

Divergent



Buy All Day - Divergent


If you are anything like me, you've already read all three of these YA books from cover to cover. The story is set in a technologically advanced society in the future that has been divided into 5 factions based on the personality trait they admire most- Abnegation, Candor, Amity, Dauntless, or Erudite. At 16, the children in the societies have to take an aptitude test and choose which faction they will join. Sometimes their aptitudes are different than the faction they were born into and they have to choose to stay with their family or join the faction that suits their personality and leave their family behind forever. I felt like I connected so much with the main character, Tris, who grew up in a more conservative faction- Abnegation which prizes selflessness. No spoilers here- but I loved these books and I can't wait to see the movie.

 Each faction has a sort of dress code and color scheme that fits with their chosen virtue. I've created 5 fashion boards inspired by each of the 5 factions. 

Here they are:


I hope you enjoy them!
