My favorite color this Spring? Coral! It’s fun, bright, and cheery-it can spice up the simplest of looks. Ranging from a deep reddish hue to orange-y, to teetering on the edge of hot pink, coral’s many incarnations make it wearable for absolutely anyone.  Feeling bold? Throw on a fun and flirty dress. Spice up your work wardrobe with a silky blouse. Not sure if you’re crazy about coral? Pop it into your look with a great shoe. No matter how you wear it, you’re sure to love it!

Cardigans: Not Just For Mr. Rogers

Ask any of my friends what is one article of clothing that Bevann can’t live without and they will say- cardigan sweaters.    It is shameful as to how many sweaters I own…and I keep buying them!  I love the versatility of a great cardigan sweater.  They are lightweight and a great layering tool.  You can wear a cardigan with just about anything ….dresses, skirts, trousers, jeans- ANYTHING.  They can liven up or tone down any outfit.  Solid, printed or embellished cardigans, it’s your prerogative.

Some of my favorite cardigans for the spring season are….

…the smocked detail cardigan from Ann Taylor Loft in my favorite shade of green.  Something about that candy apple green shade really puts a spring in my step!  I also really love the rib tie sweater from Tommy Hilfiger in star fruit yellow.  Yellow is such a hot color for summer and spring.   And when is black and white paired together not fashionable?  I adore the DKNY white cardigan with black trim that is embellished with a black and white flower on the shoulder.  I don’t know about you, but when I wear black and white together I instantly feel more chic and fashionable!

Also on my list of favorites for spring; the three quarter length cream and black polka dot sweater and the short sleeved leopard print cardigan from Forever 21.  Both are fabulous, very bold and under $20!  What a steal!

The Anthropologie dissolving spectrum cardigan is a beautiful mix of pastel colors.  When I saw this sweater, I was immediately reminded of Rachel McAdam’s Eli Saab gown that she wore for the 2010 Academy Awards- which I absolutely loved!  Although the colors of Rachel’s gown were more muted than the Anthropologie cardigan, it still conveys the same feeling and look of complete sophistication.

Last on my list of must have cardigans for spring is the floral cropped v neck cardigan in violet from Express.   Shades of purple are very trendy this season and this sweater is no exception.   I like this sweater because it’s different.  It is floral, but it looks more graphic or color splashed than floral.
