In the UAE, spring is just a slightly less hot version of summer, so wardrobe changes need to happen. These changes are a move towards lighter pieces, softer colours and flowy materials, so everything can just breathe.

Here are four pieces that you’ll need for a stylish and airy spring:

1. Splurge: This printed dress

Talk about a statement piece. This gorgeous blue Sandro dress is the perfect way to step into spring. It’s a bit of a splurge, but the amazing quality and gorgeous cut can be worn all the way through to summer. It’s the perfect spring dress. It is what warm weather dreams are made of.

2. Cool sunnies

In spring you can brighten your face up, with a purple hue. Think Coachella and go for this round shape that flatters almost every face. Sunglasses are another thing that you should invest in, since your eyes need to be properly protected from UV rays. It also doesn’t hurt that they are Marc Jacobs.

3. A bell sleeve top

Love them or hate them, they aren’t going anywhere. This trend is still going strong. This season, it’s a little less off the shoulder, a little more modest and elegant. Why are we still so obsessed with this trend? The voluminous fabric at the wrists, balances out the arms and makes them look slimmer in comparison. You got to love geometry! This bright red one is a great option to add to your spring wardrobe.

4. Anything Lavender

Lavender is the colour of the season and it works perfectly for any occasion. Mornings, afternoons and nights out. It works well with jeans, white skirts, underneath a black strappy dress. Lavender is the colour you need to invest in this spring and summer. Check out this Bow Hem Detail Top from Ginger on Namshi.
