Spring 2018 is almost here! In the fashion world, it’s in full swing! This means we all need to get our closets in order before we head out to the malls and start shopping. The last thing we want to do is buy something we already own. Um, yes, I’ve done that before; so, I want to make sure you don’t make my mistake!

There are a few trends this spring 2018 season we can find inside our closets. This is good news because it means we can all save a little bit of money when shopping for the spring season. Yay! It’s almost like free clothing! Well. . .almost. . .

Many trends from last spring, and the spring before, are back in style. So, let’s dive into our closets and shop until we drop!

Pointy Toe Pumps

You know you have at least one pair stuffed in the back of your closet! Pointy toe pumps are hotter then hot this spring 2018 season, so dust off those pointed toes and bring them front and center. They are your IT shoe of the season. Love that!

Cult Gaia Ark Bag

Did you buy a Cult Gaia Ark bag last year? If so, fabulous! It’s still a hot bag to wear this year. Also, since circles, bamboo, and straw, are all hotter then hot in the handbag world for the spring 2018 season, the Cult Gaia Ark bag fits in perfectly. It’s a half circle, and it’s bamboo; perfection!

Florals

OMG! So groundbreaking, right?! You know you have something with a floral print somewhere in your closet, or stuffed in the back of that drawer you never open. Pull it out, iron it, and hang it front and center in your closet. Florals are hotter then hot for spring. Who knew?! Haha 😉

Yellow

OK, you might not have yellow in your closet, but then again, maybe you do? Yellow has always been around, and it started to become popular last year. So, perhaps you have one yellow item floating around somewhere in your closet. Or, maybe a couple of years ago you jumped on the yellow handbag trend. Fabulous! Pull it out, and wear it often. Yellow is anything but mellow this season!

Purple

As you know, Ultra Violet is the color of 2018. It is extremely similar to 2014’s color of the year, Radiant Orchid. Chances are, you have something purple from 2014 hanging in the back of your closet; or perhaps a fabulous purple handbag sits in your archives. It’s time to bring it back to the front of your closet because purple is everything this year. Love!

White Handbags

White handbags are a huge trend this spring season. White handbags also happen to be a classic summer handbag color. There is a really good chance you own a white handbag. Dust it off, wear it often, and be fabulous.

Girlfriend Jeans

Not a new trend at all, but the denim outline of the season no less. Keep those girlfriend jeans in the front of your denim drawer, they are the ultimate denim style this season. Don’t have a pair? No worries, put your boyfriend jeans in the dryer and voila! Shrunken boyfriend jeans equal a new pair of girlfriend jeans! Haha, No really, I’ve done it and it works.

Stripes

Stripes were hot last year, and they continue to be hot this year. Wear all the stripes! Mix your stripes, or wear them stand-alone; either way, you will look fabulous.

Denim Jacket

You know you own one! It’s the ultimate jacket of the season. If you feel like it is too plain, add some sequins or bedazzle it with pearls; instant update! Love it!

Colored Denim

You know those purple skinnies are still in the back of that drawer you never open. Bring them out, because colored skinnies are baaaaa-aaaaaack! Any color of jean is fabulous this season, so wear whatever you have, and you’re set!

Of course, there are many more trends this spring 2018 then what I have mentioned, but these are the easiest trends from past seasons to shop from your closet. Now that you have found what’s hot for spring in your closet, you can buy that circle bag you have been eyeing with all the money you saved! Love!

Just in case your closet is missing something:

What will you buy for spring now that you saved a ton of money and found most of your spring 2018 wardrobe in your closet?

Circle bags for spring 2018

Circle bags are a huge trend for spring 2018. It is one of the three most important spring 2018 handbag trends we are seeing on the streets right now! While white handbags and brightly colored handbags are hotter then hot for spring, circle bags are the most sought-after silhouette in the handbag world this season.

For the spring 2018 season, circle bags are being shown in all sizes, fabrications, and colors imaginable. Plus, you can find what you are looking for in any price point that fits your budget this season; love that! I rounded up some fabulous circle bags for spring 2018, I hope you love them!

These are some of my favorite circle bags for the spring 2018 season! They are so much fun to wear, and the round silhouette is fresh and new. Love!

When wearing your circle bag this season, the best way to rock it is over the shoulder, or hand-held. Cross-body is starting to look tired; but, this doesn’t mean you can’t wear it cross-body, you can, just keep in mind that trends are heading away from that look.

I have to admit, I love this spring handbag trend. I have had a larger circle tote for a couple of years now and love it. I recently purchased the Cult Gaia Luna bag, and the Chloe Pixie bag; which are both circles. I also have my eye on the Brahmin bag which was everywhere on the streets of New York during fashion week. This is a handbag trend I am seriously into!

What do you think of the circle bag trend? Will you be rocking it this season?
