If you want your denim to relax this spring, then your style star is on the rise because jeans are trending baggier and slouchier than ever. Invest in a pair by J. Brand for $268 or opt for the look for less with a pricetag under $30. Let's see if you can spot the pricy pair by clicking either link below!

Fringe was all over the spring 2015 runways, including Emilio Pucci where it took on an effortless, bohemian vibe. You can add fringe to your own wardrobe in layers with a vest - Pucci's will set you back $5,600 while the look for less is just $50 (and genuine suede!) Can you guess which vest costs more?

P.S. I love this long black fringe vest ($45) - it's a bit more rock 'n' roll than boho - or this fringed vest ($20) that's more feminine and subtle.

While browsing Instagram the other day, this outfit photo posted by Nordstrom caught my eye - it's simple yet doesn't lack interest, thanks to the 7 For All Mankind floral print jeans and luxe Brahmin 'Mini Duxbury' Crossbody Bag. Of course it also caught my attention because this look is easy to recreate on a budget! Just pick up some floral jeans like this pair by HUE, add a neutral lightweight sweater, brown leather flats (the exact flats are just $53! Worth it for real leather!) and a neutral crossbody bag and you're good to go. With over 22,000 likes from Nordstrom fans and counting, I'd say this outfit is foolproof.


The Look:
7 For All Mankind Jeans / Free People 'Everlasting' Pullover / Brahmin 'Mini Duxbury' Crossbody Bag / Biala 'Charla' Flat

The Look for Less:
Floral Jeans / Bag / Sweater / Shoes (also loving these or these)

Lately I find myself loving everything at H&M. Maybe it's because I can't wait for spring or maybe it's because they always translate the runways into wearable everyday fashion. Muted pastels and cheerful yellows popped against classic black and white separates, while bold prints made things like sporty jackets and jumpsuits feel fresh again. And if you live somewhere cold and can't bust out your spring clothes until the end of May, never fear, H&M has new winter updates to carry you through, whether it's a new plaid scarf or classic quilted jacket. Note the awesome cargo jacket and essential ankle boots pictured below...scoop these up now, you'll thank me when spring finally rolls around!

P.S. In case you're wondering what I bought on this trip, it was this wee parka for my boy (I donated a small grocery bag of garments to receive 15% off).
