HOP INTO EASTER IN STYLE

Written by Brian D. Griffin

What are your easter plans this month? I’m know for me and my family, it’s a time to celebrate the joys of the life that God has blessed us with. The family gathers from near and far to enjoy the warm embrace of each others presences. One thing I personally love about the easter spirit is the outfits. You know as well as I do, that every special occasion or holiday always turns out to be a secret contest of “who wore it best?” and “who has the best style?”. Not to mention the color pallet.

Spring already brings in the warm climate and the beauty of the world as the colors pop all around us. This season we are seeing lots of vibrant colors, like Blue, Pink, Teal and even some softer, warmer tones that give a pop on their own, like a pale taupe, washed out browns and matte blacks. Paring a vibrant color tone with the softer, warmer tones are creating a more relaxed vibe this month. So put on your favorite pair of “Hey Dudes” and step outside and enjoy.

Life is busy and we are constantly moving right along with it.

Sometimes we forget to invest in the styles we are expressing. That’s why I find gatherings to be a reminder. Like your own little fashion show. It’s a time you walk into your wardrobe, put on your best look and go spend time with the family. But what are you to wear this season? Does your look reflect you, or who you’re inspired to be? Does your look send a clear message to those around you, of who you are? Staying authentic to the person inside makes for a peaceful life, and wearing an outfit that is authentic to you can do the same.

MMM, smell that? That’s Grandma’s home cooking. We are prepping for the big day, Easter. We have on our Sunday best and just left church feeling revived. We head home for a quick outfit change and off to Grandma’s we go, Time to show off those new loafers we just purchased or vibrant polo you have been waiting for the perfect moment to wear. You know your sister is going to be there and dressed to nines. You don’t want to feel lesser, but equal instead. Like we have stated earlier also: stay authentic to you and remember Grandma loves you no matter what you’re wearing, but still...don’t let your sister win! Outshine her in your newfound flair for fashion.

Pastels, vibrant and soft warms are all the rage this season. So hey, you have been on trend with out even knowing it! Don’t be afraid to mix & match and create freely. Fashion is endless and don’t be afraid of it. Try something new, with something old and create a whole new look.

This Easter, be true to you and your look and don’t let them out dress you at your next family gathering.
