Florals: A Flower Dress for Spring Vibes
Miranda Priestly, The Devil Wears Prada
Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking.
Miranda Priestly had a point. Floral prints in spring are about as predictable as Christmas trees in December. But let’s be honest, a well-cut floral dress exudes romance, looks stunning, and is perfect for an Easter brunch. Plus, it pairs beautifully with high heels or ballet flats – depending on whether you prefer heels or not. 😉 Depending on the weather, I opt for long or short sleeves with my floral dress.
My tip: If it’s still a bit chilly, wear a pastel-colored cardigan over it – this way, you’ll stay warm and look elegant at the same time.

Capri Pants & Blouse: The Comfortable Retro Spring Look
For Easter egg hunting in the garden, a comfortable yet stylish outfit is a must. A pair of capri pants combined with a lovely blouse or a simple top is the ideal choice. This combination exudes timeless elegance, reminiscent of fashion icons like Audrey Hepburn or Grace Kelly, while being practical at the same time. Pair it with classic ballet flats or loafers, and add cat-eye sunglasses for that perfect retro touch! 😉

Wide Skirts & Light Tops
Flowing circle skirts combined with lace blouses feel wonderfully romantic and perfect for spring. They remind me of picnics in nature and walks through cherry blossom gardens. Plus, midi skirts are incredibly practical – you can bend down to pick up Easter eggs without showing your underwear and they are super comfy! Whether they feature gingham, floral prints, or no pattern at all, the most important thing is that they embody a springtime spirit. 🙂
Tip for cold days: If it’s too chilly for delicate blouses, I recommend sweaters in soft spring colors like pink or light blue.
