Spring is the perfect time to shake up your style! Gaining a brighter you for the new season just makes everything better- even if the weather where you are doesn’t quite agree! (I’m looking at you, Indiana!)
I have partnered with Schwarzkopf color ULTÎME® and Walmart to share my 5 Steps to a Brighter You. Read on below to see my suggestions for shaking things up with your hair, wardrobe, and makeup!
NEW HAIR
It’s one of the easiest way to perk up for the new season, and one of my favorites because it’s inexpensive and easy to at home! I have used Schwarzkopf products, specifically Schwarzkopf color ULTÎME® to dye my hair for years, and am so excited to share another new hair color with you!
This time, I chose to go with Schwarzkopf color ULTÎME® Velvet Brown 3.8. It’s easy to choose a shade based on the packaging, since the colors are true to how they show on the box! I chose Velvet Brown because it’s a darker shade, but it will keep my hair shiny and my color fresh for weeks after coloring!
Check out this before and after! I loved making my hair darker! It was a breeze and eliminated the red tint I had going from my last color. It feels great knowing I’ve chosen the most fashionable & vibrant hair color that defies fading for up to 9 weeks of color shine!
CLOSET CLEAR OUT
Yeah, you heard me, clothing hoarder friends! Sometimes, having too much in your closet is actually preventing you from being able to pick out the pieces that you love and navigating your closet to your best ability. My tip is to take everything OUT of your closet and only put back in the things that you love, fit you, and make you happy!
LIGHTER/BRIGHTER PIECES
After you’re done with that closet clear-out, you know what your closet is missing for your perfect Spring style. You can swap out heavy fabrics for lighter, flowy ones. You can put away some of your black sweaters and bring in some pops of color! It’s always a good idea to brighten and lighten your wardrobe for the warmer months, not only to be more comfortable, but to lift your mood as well. Plus, shopping ALWAYS lifts my mood!
Now, if you’re in the Midwest, like myself, then you have another challenge ahead of you. The inconsistent weather doesn’t warrant putting ALL your clothes away, so I look to pair lighter pieces, like the skirt above, with wardrobe staples, like a fun t-shirt, and a moto jacket to keep warm!
SHOE SWAP
No one likes to say goodbye to their boots. As a matter of fact, I look forward to boot season all year long, but boots are so WARM. So you have to swap those boots out for some cute flats, some booties with peep toes, or some strappy sandals.
Take the time and care to pack those boots away for the Spring and Summer in some totes or a suitcase you don’t use anymore. When you take them back out in the Fall, you will have the excited, just bought everything at the mall feeling. It will be like Christmas came early to get all your favorites back out to be put into action!
MAKEUP MIX-UP
If you’re anything like me, you have a pretty solid makeup routine. I make sure to have dewy skin, a pretty pink flush, and nudey-mauve lips just about every day. Something about Spring requires a bit of a pick-me-up! Add in some sass with a pale or bright pink lip, and you’ve got a Spring look that will match your new hair and wardrobe beautifully!
